The Spring 2005 Prada show is one of the label's most iconic and recognizable. In her review of the show, Vogue's Sarah Mower stated: Just when the whole fashion world has turned ladylike—thanks, of course, to Miuccia Prada—she's tossed it all in the air, looking for a certain freedom. "A vague idea of birds; birds of vanity, like peacocks, parrots, and swans," was a starting point in her restless search for change, she explained. "I also wanted to move toward something more young and sporty, tall and narrow.... In broad terms, the news from Prada included a different silhouette (short hemlines, worn mostly with flat sandals), a return to one of her favorite palettes (brown-ochre-rust), and as always, lots of artful eccentricity (peacock feathers, flowerpot hats, Bakelite digital watches). There was also a Jamaican dance hall vibe, with reggae on the sound system, Rasta stripes in the knitwear, and Caribbean crochet in the raffia hats and cardigan coats. The birds really took flight for night, in the form of skirts overlaid with peacock feathers, dresses covered with digitalized feather prints, and pretty chiffon gowns whose fan-like pleats hinted subtly at dove's wings."

This is Look 22 from the show and is absolutely infused with that Prada vibe pieces. Here we see her masterful hand at mixing colors. The top of the dress is a combination of eggplant, brown and a startling strip of red, and the skirt is a soft combo of brown and green. It is cut very short with a swingy little silk chiffon skirt and a fabulous one shoulder cut to the bodice. The skirt is just gorgeous. It is made from a pleated silk chiffon and has two rows of horizontal stitching to give it shape over the hips and than flares and swings under that in a light cascade of silk. The top is a light weigh wool and I love the contrast of fabrics. It is fitted and the unusual color combination is fabulous and flattering.  Excellent condition

This is Look 48 from the show and one of my personal favorite pieces. It is in that color mentioned above, a brown-ochre-rusr, with a slight sheen to the silk wool mix fabric. It is cut short and simple with a little A-line cut skirt and that fabulous one shoulder shilhouette. Black insets define the shape and cut and the front middle panel of the skirt is heavily embellished with cut out shapes, beads and crystals anchored over black lace shapes cut to match each embellishment. The fabric choice allows for that wonderful shape to stay true when it is one the body and the jeweled appliques are striking. Excellent condition

This is an exceptional dress. It is Marc Bohan for Christian Dior and it is a stunning example of his work during this time period. The silk chiffon base is a pretty combination of chocolates with subtle pops of a pale blue worked through the design. Woven through the silk is a gold lurex thread that gives the fabric a two dimensional pop and makes it gleam and glitter in the light. That gold thread has been placed deliberately to highlight the lines of the dress and so become an integral part of the overall design. The neckline is a cut into a low square and the fitted bodice is balanced beautifully by long slim sleeves. The skirt is a marvel as it has been constructed around the print of the fabric and the placement of the gold thread. It is set into the waist with a series of pleated folds with the top of each fold covered in gold. The more transparent silk chiffon parts are set inverted in between each gold covered panel. This causes the skirt to present as a gold column of silk when you stand still and then when you move you see the contrast between the fabric where the gold is not placed. It has its original matching belt to cinch in the waist that has a gold horizontal stripe that picks up the same gold stripe used at the hem. It is a beautiful and dramatic piece of vintage couture. Excellent condition.

Fully lined in a brown silk with the sleeves left unlined. It closes with a back painted metal & nylon zipper and hook & eye at the neck. Each sleeve has a hidden snaps at the cuff. The belt closes with a combination of hook, grommets and snaps and is stamped Christian Dior on the back. Hand finished

Rarely have I seen such a fine and elaborate example of the Dior label come to market as this extraordinary dress. Based on the lines and construction and other examples I have had in the shop I would say that this extraordinary dress dates to the mid-sixties. It is from the Dior Paris Boutique and the label is numbered so this would have been a special or custom order by a client. I see no machine work so while technically I must classify it as demi-couture, it is most certainly made to Haute Couture standards. This did happen with special order pieces. It is an absolutely wonderful example of the mod feel of that era and hands down one of the best sixties dresses I have had.

The dress is made from a very fine silk that has been dyed the perfect shade of milk chocolate. This silk base allows it to weigh far less then what you would think upon first glance. Onto the silk are hand applied sequins and there are literally thousands of these tiny sequins that have each been sewn into place so that the entire dress gleams in the light. From the waist down he mixes in paper thin medallions of tortoise shell with more sequins used to created an edge around each. In some cases rows of sequins have been sewn directly on top of its tortoise shell backdrop. The dress is cut with a shirt front and a little A-line skirt. I love how the basic design elements like the pockets, cuffs and collars are all edged in a tightly spaced finish of the same sequins. I doubt you could find a better example of this type of dress from this period that has the same intense workmanship in its making. Excellent, museum quality condition.

Fully lined with a matching fine silk through the skirt and silk organza through the sleeves and bodice. The inner seams are hand finished and the sequins and shells are hand applied. There are perhaps the occasional missing sequin here and there among the thousands but I see nothing that truly detract from this beautiful example of Dior in this time period.

This is an amazing and fun jumpsuit by Halston that is one of those pieces you will wear to death. This is from one of his diffusion lines and it is the second one I have found over the years. It is made from a deep chocolate toweling fabric that has an almost velour finish to it. In the seventies this was very avant garde within the lounge wear. world with designers like Pucci and even Yves Saint Laurent producing pieces that their clients were buying for their jet set lives. Made to just be able to just throw it on, slip on a pair of sandals  or heels and you are ready to go. I love the wide, kimono cut sleeves and the equally wide cut legs. The waist is elastic so will adjust to fit any figure and the front zips as low as you want to dare. You simply step into it, zip and you are ready to go. It's fun and fantastic. Excellent condition.

Unlined and closes at the front with the zipper as shown. Slight wear the the toweling fabric at the back waist and at the edges around the front, but very minor. Elastic at the waist.

I have this in both a taupe-chocolate and black, and I think they are very chic. They have that cool, sleek minimal feel that Halston excelled at. The longer cut makes them incredibly versatile as well since you can wear it as a top or layer it and use it as a long, fitted cardigan. This is the brown version and it is made of a stretch jersey in two weights. A heavier, more opaque version is used for the front and sides and then a lighter, semi-transparent version gives a sexy twist to the sleeves and back. These fit skinny and fitted and were a bit tiny on my mannequin, hence the low button front. They do button up one more from what you see. It is insanely comfortable once on and very sexy. Excellent condition

Unlined with an opaque front and sides. The sleeves and back are semi-transparent. Buttons to close at the front and there are two buttons on each cuff.

Marni pieces always are a bit quirky and walk that line between the peuce you throw on every day and high end fashion. You can easily spot a Marni pieces for its fashion forward lines and ease that it falls over the body. The duster coat is a Marni mainstay and this piece from the Spring 2005 collection is an outstanding example of this. Vogue said of this collection: "With her country-fresh pink cheeks, bird's-nest hair, and enviably serene smile, the Marni girl projects an easy, all's-well-with-the-world outlook. Step over her threshold, and you're in a place of slightly batty loveliness, where clothes have the touching resonance of sunny days, and getting dressed seems like a series of happy accidents. Designer Consuelo Castiglioni picked up her spring vibe from a couple of handcrafty, nostalgic artifacts: a Hessian place mat naïvely appliquéd with birds found in Portobello market and a bright-green flower-printed cotton sixties swimsuit from the L.A. vintage store Jet Rag. She teased out the essence of those oddly contrasting artifacts and wove it in to her existing passion for fifties kitchen-curtain prints, mattress stripes, and glitter-shot fabric. Result: a collection of pretty egg-shaped skirts, Empire sundresses, duster coats, and shrunken knits, often pulled together with sparkly belts or a humble piece of string. The Hessian table mat turned up as a burlap, birdie-embroidered skirt, and the swimsuit pattern in cheerful printed terry boleros and frocks. Castiglioni also made her first excursion into eveningwear, in bunchy pearl-gray taffeta dresses. As with everything else in this collection, they were charm personified."

The coat is the other "burlap" piece with embroidery from the collection (referenced above in the Vogie review) and was Look 36 in the runway show. It is made from a cotton mix with a rough texture that gives it that burlap feel. It is also meticulously cut and assembled despite its easy ad loose appearance. It is like a modern take on the 1920s duster coat with a neat neckline and easy fit that allows you to layer it loose and open or belt it for shape as it was shown on the runway on Daria. It expands out through the waist and curves slightly back in at the hem. Very chic and very Marni. Excellent condition

This is a gorgeous, and versatile little wrap dress by Mr Mort that has a beautiful print screened onto a plush cotton velvet. The Mr Mort label was at the height of it's success during the sixties and some of the ideas that Stan Herman,, the designer for the label during the 60s, were producing were pretty cutting edge, like putting dresses over pants. One can easily imagine that this is one of those pieces that he would have styled in that way. The way it wraps and closes makes it a close cousin to the coat and it could easily be worn on its own as a dress or as a layering piece. The velvet gives the colors deoth and richness and I love the muted but rich palette. The dress is cut s that it wraps over itself at the front and closes with a belt to add more shape if you wish. Long sleeves give balance to the shorter length of the skirt. Gold and purple metallic braiding is set in panels along the edges of the front and on each cuff with rhinestones scattered through that design for a little bit of glitz. It was a touch too tiny through the chest on the mannequin so is not closed properly in the photos but will of course sit even better on the right size body underneath. Excellent condition

The fabric is self backed and the dress closes with hidden snaps and hook and eye under the front edge. The front snaps could be adjusted a bit to give you more room through the bust if needed.

This is an absolute stunning dress from 1998 Chanel runway. My client knew that it was a runway piece and after sifting through 100s of photos we finally spotted it in the photo added here for reference. Everything about it has that chic Chanel feel that makes many of Karl's designs classics forever. It is very beautiful in person and the simple lines and cut make it the kind of dress that you can wear multiple times and the styling and accessories you add will make it feel different each time. It is two separate pieces and each is made of light crepe chiffon in a milk chocolate color. The over layer seems to be able to be worn with the opening to either the back or front and I photoed it both ways for you (it was worn to the back on the runway). The inner dress is as simple sheath with a low plunging bodice made of a double layer of the fabric and is cut with a deep plunge, it has the feel of a bikini top in coverage. The skirt of the inner dress is semi-transparent because it is made of a single layer of fabric. Note that in person it is not as transparent as it photoed since the light made it more so. Over this you layer the outer overlay which is almost like a sleeveless jacket. It hooks at the neck and waist and has a ling attached tie that comes out from the neck that you can style many ways. A caped overlay sits over the top and it also extends into long ties that can be simple knotted or wrapped in as many ways as you can think of. It is the perfect mix of sexiness and elegance. Excellent condition.

The inner dress bodice is made of two layers of the silk crepe chiffon and the rest of the ensemble is unlined. The over lay has hook & eye at the neck and waist and the inner dress closes with a hidden set side zipper. Tagged a Chanel 36 from collection 98A

When I look for Pauline Trigere's work I am often drawn to the more flowing silk pieces that she did in the early to mid seventies. However, when I saw this wonderful dress whose label dates it more towards the end of that era, and perhaps into the earlier eighties, I had to have it for the shop. Trigere was known as a master cutter and she kept her business small the entire time it was open from the 1940s to the early 2000s. She ran the business herself all through that time period and was known to cut garments directly on the fit model. The photos are deceptive as they don't quite convey the texture and weight of the fabric and the cool, chic feel that the simple cut and immaculate seaming give the dress. The top is cut to be sleek and simple with molded bust created by curving seams and a curved fit over the waistline. It then skims past the waist and over the hips where it opens into a beautifully cut skirt that widens as it nears the hem. It is constructed from a textured, heavy silk linen in a natural tone that is cut on the bias. Excellent condition

Closes with a hand set side painted nylon and metal zipper. Lined in neutral silk muslin with the bodice backed in the same fabric as the exterior. Hand finishes throughout.

Karl Lagerfeld is a genius when it comes to combining cut and fabric and this Chanel dress showcases that. The dress is made from a fine, light crepe silk fabric that has been woven into a square grid pattern that gives it a very unusual texture. This technique also makes the fabric very light and pliable with lots of movement. One in it is very comfortable and easy to wear. This feeling of ease is made more so by the fine silk that lines it. The color is a deep, rich milk chocolate and the cut is deceptively simple. The fabric he chose for this dress has the same properties as the iconic boucle that the house regularly uses and is bias cut in all four directions. This means that it moves easily over the body with no restrictions while at the same time always keeping its shape. The bodice is sleeveless with a V neckline and very simple. The waist is set at a slight drop and the fabric skims over the body in a sleek column from the shoulder to the floor. Pockets sit on each hip and each pocket has a distinctive Chanel logo button adorning it. Excellent condition.

Fully interlined in a fine brown silk crepe and closes with a back hidden set zipper. Hidden pockets on each hip each with a Chanel button. Extra Chanel button included. Beautifully constructed with hand finishes

On the Burberry runway this was look #16 and was one of the chicest pieces of the Spring 2014 show. Its neutral feel worked perfectly over soft pastels. It is not a flashy piece but rather, one of those pieces you reach for over and over because it will go with anything and is never out of style. It has a simple and classic cut that is loose and easy with volume through the body that is offset by the belt at the waist. With the belt you can change the silhouette from a more loose car coat feel to a cinched and chic trench feel. It has no closure other then the belt and no collar but the suede is cut with a little excess fabric as it nears the neck so that you get a collar feel. Large top set pockets sit on either side of the hip for detail. The suede used is ultra soft and supple. It is surprisingly light weight and moves very well while still retaining its intended shape. Excellent, unworn condition.

A very wonderful and rare, early Vera Maxwell suit that is in beautiful condition and the design is also equally as beautiful. The label used dates this to the late 1940s/early 1950s so it would have been from one of the first years in business after her label opened in 1947. She went on to win a Coty Special Award in 1951 and a Neiman-Marcus Award in 1955 and was a sought after designer in her day. The suit is well made and has great lines. The skirt skims over the hips and cut slim but with a slight A-line as it nears the hem. The jacket is a fabulous and has  bit of a sport feel to it with its jaunty velvet adorned collar and little decorative flap on the chest to suggest high set pockets. I love that she used bold crystals for the buttons - a witty tongue in cheek move against the wool and velvet. It is a classic. Excellent condition.

The jacket is fully lined in a matching color silky rayon and the skirt is unlined. The skirt closes with a painted metal zipper and hooks at the waist. The jacket closes at the front with the buttons as shown.

I am dating this to the 1969-1970 collection based on the example held in The Metropolitan Museum's permanent archives. You can see the very similar design treatment at the front with that incredible scooped out detail. The best Cardin designs have this molded sculptural element to them and this one has that in spades. The dress is constructed from a deep chocolate wool of a mid-weight that holds the sculpted shape perfectly. It is a sleek and simple column that when off of the hanger literally falls in a straight, tubular shape. The dress is meant to define the shape rather then the body under it. That being said, the dress has its own version of sexuality with that high front scoop that shows a lot of leg and the low cut neckline that mirrors the scoop on the skirt and falls low below the bust. Holding that scoop in place is a signature circle of the same fabric that looks suspended between the fabric. This is Cardin at his best and is an instantly recognizable and rare design. It is very rare and very special. Excellent condition

This particular coat from the Givenchy label is not only wonderful but a little unusual. It is made of an unusual fabric that feels almost coated. I think its a cotton mix that has been finished with a waterproofing material perhaps. This gives it a really odd texture that is not unpleasant just different. Its hard to describe but when you have it in your hands you will agree I am sure that it is unique. The treatment of the fabric also helps it to keep its wonderful structured feel and the soft taupe and white abstract pattern combine it make it a fabulous statement piece. The effect created by these two elements is dramatic and beautiful. The coat itself has classic lines with a pretty notched collar and an A-line cut through the body. It is extremely well made with a silk taffeta lining and all the buttons are properly finished. I love the thick round silver tone buttons that run down the front in a double row. It is absolutely gorgeous in person - better then the photos portray. Excellent, appears unworn condition

I am a little obsessed with this fedora by Christian Dior. It has a small, neat brim and sits at a jaunty angle once on. It is made of a felted wool and the band that circles the crown is an ultra-suede. The textures those two fabric have when combined are delicious and the colors make it the perfect chic neutral. I love love love the little "arrow" detail that give illusion of going through the hat and how each side of that detailing is anchored with a little gold piece. Trust me - you will wear this one over and over. Excellent condition

A fabulous and instantly recognizable Yves Saint Laurent hat that I absolutely love. The brim is wide and bold and I love the "fuzzy" felt and mohair choice of fabric that gives it a fur feel.

Love this high set and unusual Hubert de Givenchy pillbox hat that is a really amazing color combination of a copper and pale pink gold tone silk satin. The label has it earmarked as an "adaptation" which means that it was licensed and made in America for the American market based on the Paris designs. This was common in this time period to work around strict importation rules for fashion and fabrics during this time period. It is meant to sit high on the head and have a structured turban feel to it. Excellent condition
