Mainbocher loved Chinese costume references, and well-published examples occur from the 1930s onward. His Chinoiserie ranged from graphic, cheongsam reductivism for clients such as the Duchess of Windsor to more fragile prettiness for the classic beauty of Mrs. Harrison Williams or, Mrs. Winston Guest.
