• This is an amazing example of Galliano's work from Fall 2006 collection.
• The dress was made under the creative direction of John Galliano.
• The more elaborately beaded pieces were usually released in more limited quantities.
• It is very similar to a dress that I had in the shop before but this one is more elaborate and much longer. It is a really striking dress that is also very easy to wear because of its simple and bias cut. 
• The dress is made from three layers of a feather light black silk chiffon that are all attached to each other at the top of the shoulder and then float over each other from there. The very inside layer is a black silk chiffon with no texture and then the two top layers are a textured silk chiffon.
• The dress has a very loose and easy cut through the body so is very easy to wear and comfortable once on the body.
• The bodice has a draped neckline at the front and it does the same at the back. One shoulder is cut wider across and this is what extends out to form the neckline. The other shoulder is more delicate in feel and it is edged in lace. A small bow sits on the top of the shoulder.
• The bodice on the side with the wider strap is detailed with pintuck that runs vertically down the dress. On the side with the more narrow strap the silk is swept up to one side and held in place with a flat bow and a bit of a ruffle. The ruffle runs down the length of the dress all the way to the hem.
• This creates the illusion that the dress is wrapped around you and the bow is holding it in place. It is very clever.
• A hand set design that combines tiny seed beads and silver sequins details the neckline and are set in little clusters that run down the length of the dress. These give the dress a pretty glint in the light. 
• Most of the edges of the dress have a raw finish which adds an extra delicate bit of texture to the dress that is lovely.
• A slit runs up one side so you get a flash of bare leg when you move or sit and it is cut longer at the back so you get this fantastic sweeping feel behind you as move.
• The bias really only comes to life once on. As good as it looks in the photos here it is even better in person and on the body.
• The inner silk chiffon and middle tulle layer act as the lining underneath the top layer. The innermost layer has no closures. The middle layer closes with its own hidden set zipper and the very top layer closes with one of his signature tightly spaced rows of silk covered buttons. Because of the bias cut, it may come up slightly once on. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.

• This dress is from John Galliano's own label and is an incredible example of his work from this time period.
• It was made under the creative direction of John Galliano
• This is a production piece that was not shown on the runway but would have been made in limited quantities for the shops.
• For this season he had emphasized a glamorous hourglass shape mixed with nods to pinup girl lingerie style dressing. These bias cut dresses always showcase his love of the 1930s and 1940s and you can see that influence in them.
• The dress is made out of a deep dusky purple silk that has a slight bit of texture to it. It is completely cut on the bias in that signature cut he does so well.
• The dress falls from a delicate strap that curves up and behind the neck and then it drapes down and over the body to the floor.
• The bias cut of it allows the dress to skim and drape over you so that it shows every curve but is not overly fitted.
• The fabric has been pieced together with dropped and angled panels throughout to create the beautiful shape that you see.
• At the back, the strap meets behind the neck and then drop down the centre of the back and panels of silk are suspended from it. These curving panels can be worn either down and under the arms or you can drape your arms through them to create a beautiful curving 'sleeve' effect over the arm.
• The dress glides over the body past the bust, waist and hips and then flares out as it reaches the hem.
• It buttons to close down the side with a row of his signature buttons covered in the same silk and then on the other side the fabric is gathered in and up into a wired circle. The circle is open in the centre and the panels that gather into the circle have been cut out and opened so that it forms the shape of a flower trailing over one hip.
• The dress is lined in a crepe silk but you could choose to remove that lining and have that side be completely bare so that your skin showed through if you wished. I have seen this dress in another colour where someone did that and it looked great. It is an incredible feat of patterning.
• The photos cannot fully convey how a bias cut dress moves. It will only truly come to life when worn.
• Fully lined in a slightly deeper purple silk crepe and closes at the side with a series of silk covered buttons. I see perhaps a tiny pull in the fabric here and there which happens with this fabric and a bit of shininess here and there from pressing near seams. All minor and mentioned for accuracy.
• Tagged a FR42, GB14, US8. The bias cut should allow it to fit a range of sizes with it just draping more in a smaller frame

• The twin of this dress in a blue walked the runway for Look 13 for the Spring 2008 Galliano collection. 
• It was made under the creative direction of John Galliano.
• This is a very rare Production label piece by Galliano. It may or may not have been produced for retail but it is the original production piece made before making that decision. This is a very rare thing to find and an amazing piece of Galliano fashion history.
• I love that we have the runway photos and video of the dress in blue. The runway piece was shown unlined so it really allows you to see the extraordinary detail in the lace that the dress has. The black version is obviously harder to photo and it is lined, but has the same amazing detail as the runway piece.
• I have added some detail shots of the dress lane flat so that you can see the patterns watch all through the netting.
• The Spring 2008 show coincided with John Galliano's tenth year with the label and it was Dior's 60th year as a label. John celebrated that by creating pieces based on some of his signature looks through the past decade. 
• The dress is made out of black netting that has a dot pattern running through.
• Added to this are circular medallions made out of a and then stitched embroider to create the circles that you see. These medallions are also a clever way to create the shape of the dress. Around the skirt, for example he has placed more of them all the way around to help provide structure and fullness before the final lower tier of the skirt.
• The bodice is shaped and cupped with a build in hooked strap. I love that the outer part of the cups of the bra are finished in a velvet, even though you can't see this, detail it is there. It just shows you how much attention was paid. I took a photo for you to see.
• The straps of the bra curve up and over your shoulder and are finished in a black velvet on their exterior side. Play beside those straps are straps made out of netting that have a round double ruffle shape. These sit over the inner bra strap once it's on your shoulder and Cape softly over the top of your shoulder and upper arm.
• Under the bus, it follows down to the waist where there is a pattern of the round medallion, circling all the way around you. These are placed on a slight downward angle on the sides to create a pretty line.
• Tool explodes to be very full and open. Just under the hip there is a second ring of those circular medallions that go all the way around you and again replaced on a slightly downward angle that curved down lower at the back of the skirt.
• Under that it is fantastic with layers to sit on top of each other with both layers having unfinished raw edges. One layer is longer than can you get even more volume.
• The back of the skirt curves around longer than the front. The lightness of the fabric let it move and catch the air fantastically. You can see that in the runway video.
• This is a phenomenally, rare piece of Galliano history, and and absolutely beautiful dress.
• The dress is fully lined in a black silk with a belt in attached bra that hooks to close at the back. The straps are adjustable. It closes with a tightly space row of his signature button and loops down one side.
• Because it is a production / sample piece there is no size tag present. Please go by the measurements listed below.

• This is a rare and early example of Galliano's work from the Fall 1999 collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of John Galliano.
• We have included several runway shots that we found that show the same fabric as it was seen on the runway.
• The dress is ultra soft to touch. It is made from a deep creamy ivory and then onto that are tiny little black bows made out of yarn. They form a grid in their centres as they weave through the underlying ivory and then the ends are allowed to extend out on both side sides. This is what forms the bow and also gives it the 3D feel as each end sits up and off of the fabric.
• The dress is done in a simple shift feel with no sleeves and an easy to wear cut. Long vertical seams curve over you to add shape. The bust is simple and set to curve over you. The waist is shaped to come in slightly. From there it curves back out over the hips. 
• The skirt is a simple slim pencil shape that comes in very slightly at the hem. At the back, extra fabric is hidden inside of an inverted vent. The fabric is pleated on both sides, inside the vent, and this allows you to move and walk in the dress. It also gives you a little unexpected flare at the bottom of the back skirt while you are moving.
• It is the perfect minimalist 1990s piece with a Galliano twist.
• The dress is lined in an ivory silk with hand finishes around the neck and arms. It closes with a hidden set side zipper. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
• Tagged an early Galliano FR38,GB10, US4

• This is a rare two piece jacket and skirt set from the Fall 1999 collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of John Galliano.
• We have included several runway shots that we found that show various pieces made of the same fabrication and with similar silhouettes.
• Both pieces are ultra soft to touch. The angora/mohair and wool mix that both pieces are made of would have been specially created for the collection in order to get the pattern to lay so precisely. The fabric would have had to have been pre-planned out prior to making the final design.
• The jacket is phenomenal. It has soft shoulders and is meant to feel at touch more oversized through the upper bodice. The waist is cinched in with a single oversized hand carved button that sits at the front. From there  then it curves over the hips under that. This cut is what gives you that fantastic exaggerated hourglass feel that the suit has.
• The shawl collar is very wide and covers almost the upper bodice. It is finished with a bolder print and feels like a statement piece in itself. The body of the jacket has an angled black-and-white chevron print and I love how he has placed this to emphasize the shape even more.
• The sleeves are extra long and they are meant to bunch up slightly on the arm. They are finished with a wide band of the same design that details the collar.
• The skirt has a simple black piping at the waist and then it is cut in a long slim pencil shape. The upper portion of the skirt is done in that chevron pattern and then the lower part of the skirt picks up that amazing design that was used on the collar and ends of each sleeve.
• The jacket is lined in a black silk and buttons at the front to close as described above. The skirt is unlined and closes at the back with a zipper and hooks at the waist.
  
• Both pieces are tagged an early Galliano large.
• It appears to have never been worn.
• Excellent condition and so so very rare.

• This dress is from the Spring 2003 Dior collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of John Galliano.
• The twin of this dress was worn by Jennifer Aniston to accept her award at the 2003 Golden Globes. 
• This is a dress that was made for the shops on a limited basis. A version with no sequins or lace, was also made that season, but this one with the extra detailing was only produced for a very limited amount of shops or special order.
• The dress is made from a bias cut black silk that has a slight texture to it. This is mixed with a black lace and then the dress has additional sequin and bead detailing.
• The front curves over you and then dips low at the back. You can see in the try on photos that when this is on an actual body it dips lower down the back and on more of a curve. This leaves your entire upper back bare and exposed.
• Two straps extended out from the centre of the bodice and hook into place behind the neck. There is a heavy detailing of beads and sequins that follow the neckline of the dress and then scatter over and down the bodice. Both the straps are finished with a heavy detailing of beads and little black prong set black glass rhinestones. Where the straps attached at the front there is a panel of silk shaped to feel like the ends of a tie. This is made from one piece of silk that has been folded over onto itself and then cut into angles at its ends. It is heavily detailed with a beautiful scalloped pattern created by shiny black sequins and tiny little glass beads.
• The top blouses over the waist and then there is a wide 11" panel of gathered black lace that starts at the waist seam and curves over the top of the hips. The fabric has some stretch so that you can adjust where it sits on you. 
• The skirt falls to the floor in a beautiful line. It is cut to curve over your hips and then flares out dramatically for the lower portion of the skirt. A slit runs up the front centre for some leg to show and this combined with the flaring cut creates incredible movement as you move.
• It is a really exceptional dress and is extremely sexy once on the body. 
• The bodice is fully lined in a black silk chiffon and the skirt is unlined. It slips on to wear with no closures. In its original length. The bias cut and slight stretch of the fabric gives it some movement. I have given the comfortable range of the measurements while laying flat below. It appears to have worn very little if at all.

• This is a stunning off white suit from the Spring 2006 Dior collection 
• It was made under the creative direction of John Galliano
• The suit is made from an amazing textile. It is just slightly off of a true white and blends a viscose and cotton mix in a beautiful woven design. The parts that have a slight 3D feel and sit slightly off of the base have an almost raffia feeling finish to it. The parts that have this finish and are slightly raised off of the pattern have a different finish to them and catch the light beautifully. It is really extraordinary. The base fabric is light in weight but has enough structure to allow it to hold its intended shape perfectly.
• The collar is set to go fully across at the front and I love the little half bows that give the collar a notched appearance. These are created by a panel of fabric, extending from the part of the collar that goes around your neck looping through a proper button hole finished slit, and then the ends are tacked down by hand so they sit exactly perfect.. These also pick up on the bows used elsewhere on the jacket. 
• The shoulders are softly sloped and rounded and have light padding inside. The sleeves fall to just above the rest, depending on the length of your arms and they are cut on a like curve and have a touch of a flare at their ends. The jacket has three buttons down the front and the buttons are done in what looks to be a beautiful hand-carved mother of pearl with the Dior name engraved onto them. Two smaller versions act as decoration along each cuff of the sleeves.
• The body of the jacket is cut slightly boxy with shape brought in at the waist. Two curving pockets sit on each hip and these are finished much like the ones on the collar with a panel of fabric, extending down and then threw a proper button hole finish slit. The ends of the bows are not tact here so you get a bit of a more 3D feel. These are the second reference to bows that the suit has. At the small of the back the final bow detail is seen with a curved and shaped panel of fabric threaded through two button hole finished slits there. I love the fact that the slits were all of these little bows slip through are all properly finished in traditional tailoring methods.
• The skirt has a very pretty and full cut. It is more shaped around the upper hip and the slightly higher set waist. This gives you beautiful shape. Running along the top edge of the waist and then just under that are a double set of belt loops. This becomes both an added extra design detail and an additional point of interest if you decided to loop either one long belt or two separate belts through them. From the top of the waist it curves down to a low long hip seam and then the skirt flares out quite dramatically to the hem. It is all gathered in around the sea, and then there is an additional seam another few inches down from that that helps give it even more volume. The skirt will sit at about the knee depending on your height.
• Because of the beautiful soft white colour of the set this would make a gorgeous piece to work into a wedding weekend or perhaps even to wear for a courthouse wedding, luncheon or going away outfit.
• Both pieces are lined in an ivory silk and the silk of both pieces has the Dior name embossed throughout. The jacket buttons to closes with three buttons at the front and each cuff has two decorative buttons. The skirt closes with a hidden set back zipper. I see a little bit of marking on the inside back silk of the jacket but of course you do not see it once on. It otherwise appears to have been more very little if at all. The skirt still has its original Dior tag attached shut up.
• Both pieces are tagged at FR40, GB12, IT44, US8

• This is a very pretty Valentino dress from the 2000s and is from the main label.
• It was made under the creative direction of the original Mr. Valentino.
• The dress is made out of a beautiful red silk crepe  and then is highlighted with a more matte satin finish in the same red for the contrasting details.
• The dress curves over the shoulders and it is set so that it sits a bit wider across the front.
• The neckline comes down into a V and the fabric on each side of the neckline flips over to form the suggestion of a small collar.
• Starting at the top of the neck on each side are two bands of silk that run vertically side-by-side all the way down the length of the entire dress to the hem. They are split partway up from the hem to create a slit so you get a flash of leg when you walk.
• A small band of the same fabric crosses over those just below the bust and then there are these very pretty and interesting partial bows made out of the same silk. They sit up and off the dress on either side a touch and create a very pretty point of interest.
• Pin tuck seams give some shape around the waist and add a little extra added detailing.
  
• From there it skims over and past the waist and then curves over the hips. The skirt falls to the floor in a beautiful column of red and flares out quite a bit as it nears the hem. 
• The back of the dress is cut slightly longer and has extra fabric built-in so that you have a beautiful bit of a sweep behind you as you walk. I love how the dress falls in the lovely folds that you see in these photos.
  
• The dress is fully lined in a red silk. It closes with a hidden set back zipper that follows one of the seams at the back to give the appearance that there are no closures. I see a bit of grubbiness along the back hem here and there. It is very minor but mentioned for accuracy.
• There is no size tag present so please go by the measurements listed below.

• The twin of this gorgeous set walked the runway for the Spring 2001 Valentino show as Look 73.
• It was made under the creative direction of the original Mr. Valentino.
• Vogue said of the show that "Valentino has far too strong of a personal sense of style to let himself go with the trends—don't even dream about pop '80s references here. Instead, he delivered the polished, elegant clothes that his devoted clientele can always expect.... Evening teetered on the decadent, with slender columns and minute, short dresses that dazzled with a shower of sequins in gold and pink—presumably, Valentino's recipe for a night of excess."
• You can see how fantastic this is once it is on the body by the reference runway photo, and video added here.
• I love that since it is a set instead of a dress, you can mix and match it with things that you already own. The versatility of having two separate pieces is always an added bonus. 
  
• The top is absolutely extraordinary. It is made out of two layers of an ivory silk chiffon that has the most elaborate sequin and bead pattern that completely covers the top layer of silk.
• It is cut like a little tank top with straps extending out from the main body of the top to curve up and over each shoulder. The neckline is scooped at the front and the back. It comes in just slightly at the waist and is just long enough to sit over the top edge of the skirt if you choose to wear it over top of the skirt.
• It is completely and densely covered in an elaborate design made out of hand applied sequins and beads. The sequins are set so densely that they sit up and off of the silk and overlap each other. The tiniest little ivory seed beads are interspersed in between sequins. These completely covers the main portion of the top.
• Curving around each side and over the straps is a fabulous design that mixes tiny seed beads in different shades of ivory and iridescent with tube beads and little clear iridescent beads. These are set to follow the curve around the sides and sweep up and over each shoulder. At the side seam where the back at front parts of the pattern meet there is a row of six dangling pieces that continue the pattern and add a little extra detail.
• The skirt is made out of an ivory silk that has a beautiful structure and is made to hold its shape while still feeling soft and pliable once on the body.
• It has a flat waist with no band to break the eye. From there it curves out and over the hips. I love that it has pockets on each hip. It expands outwards to the floor and becomes quite wide by the time it reaches the hem. It curves around towards the back to fall longer with more fabric built into the back so you get this fantastic sweep behind you.
  
• The camisole is lined in a ivory silk chiffon. It closes with a hidden set partial side zipper. The skirt is unlined and closes with a back hidden set zipper. 
• The skirt is tagged a vintage Valentino 8 and the top a 6
• Excellent condition
