i think at this point in time everyone pretty much recognizes certain Celine pieces from the Phoebe Philo days and her knit dresses are definitely some of the most recognizable. It is just a joy to see knits done to this level when so many are synthetic fabrics now. Besides being a gorgeous piece of fashion history it is just a wonderful dress

The dress is made from a beautiful knit that feels like a wool, cashmere and silk mix. It has a very dense weave to it and has a wonderful feeling weight. It is made with the absolute minimal seaming. Where there is a seam she made it into a design detail so that you have these perfect lines running down the dress that add just the perfect little touch. The colour is a gorgeous ivory and in person it is richer and better then how it photoed. The dress has a high collar that frames the face. The top edge of the collar is finished with a subtle curve under that again gives it that perfect subtle little detail. The sleeves are cut extra long and meant to be worn bunched up on the arm. Each cuff ends in a wide ribbing. It skims over the body and past the hips to land about mid-calf to just above the ankles depending on your height. It slightly flares out at the hem. It is a beauty. Excellent condition with one small note below

Unlined and slips on to wear. No size tag present. It feels like a wool, cashmere and silk mix. The fabric does have some stretch so should fit a range of sizes. The measurements below give you the comfortable range the fabric has when lying flat. There is a faint blueish line on one sleeve that you see when they are fully down. Once the sleeves are bunched up properly it disappears.

Waist: 13-17" flat across from side seam to side seam

I think at this point in time everyone pretty much recognizes certain Celine pieces from the Phoebe Philo days and this black dress is one. This was Look 6 in the Resort 2017 show. Vogue said of the collection 'Truth be told, Resort and pre-collections are the places Philo has always secreted away her best—meaning most durably fashion-proof—clothes. This time, there are some quite radical proportions going on. What catches the eye most in the new lineup is Philo’s swaggeringly womanly tailoring'. As with the Spring show Pheobe avoided all press and it drove the press mad. But it did not matter because her clients were loyal to a fault and still are. They hunted down her work whether it was published everywhere or not. Her work has spoken for itself ever since and still garners the same devotion if not more.

This is an easy dress to wear and is instantly recognized as one of hers. It is made out of a black floral jaquard and the black on black floral print is gorgeous. The two tones of black catch the light differently and give the dress an added layer of interest once it is on. Devoted vintage fans will recognize the fabric as a nod to the jaquard that designers like Ossie Clark used in his work decades before in the 1970s. The dress has sleeves that end just above the elbow and it is meant to skim over but highlight the bust. From there is begins to widen out with an easy cut waist and fuller hips. By the time it reaches the hem it is quite wide and this gives it a lovely movement when you move. The attention is brought up to the face with those gorgeous cuts out. The neckline is scooped and then under that on one side there is a curved shape cut out of the front and then there is another slice taken out from the top of that sleeve. It is just the exact right amount of skin for a Celine girl to have. The dress is in mint condition with its original tags and its original uncut supermodel length hem. And it has pockets hidden along the front seams. Excellent condition

Unlined and closes with a hidden set back zipper. Tagged a 38. Original tags attached and in perfect condition

Bust: 17" flat across from side seam to side seam

I think at this point in time everyone pretty much recognizes certain Celine pieces from the Phoebe Philo days and this red jersey dress is one. This was Look 23 in the Pre-Fall 2017 show. This show is interesting as it is the one where Phoebe went completely silent. She offered no press quotes, gave no background on her inspiration and was not present at the press previews. It drove the press mad but her loyal fans loved here even more for it. Her work has spoken for itself ever since and still garners the same devotion, if not more.

 This is one of the easiest dresses to wear that has ever existed. You just slip it over the head and then adjust it with the tie at the dropped waist seam and walk out the door. That tie that runs through the seam around the hop allows you to wear it low and loose or you can cinch it in and wear it higher up on the waist and have the top blouse over. The jersey is fantastic and the red is one that should work on most skin tones. The neckline is detailed with a small strip of red leather that circle around the the neckline and down the front to the waist seam. It is studded with silver studs for the subtlest of details. It falls loose and easy over the body and the skirt has yards and yards of fabric. Besides wearign it this way you could also wear it the other way around. And it has pockets. This is the genius of Phoebe where she manages to have something be so perfectly simple and easy and yet have so much drama at the same time. I love it. Excellent condition 

Unlined and slips on to wear. Adjust with the tie at the waist seam. Tagged a 36 but very generous in cut. The jersey has stretch. It appears to have been worn very little if at all. It should fit a wide range of sizes

Bust: 15-23" flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist-hips: open and adjustable
Bodice: 19" from top of bodice to waist
Skirt: 35" from waist to longest point of hem
Total length: 54" and it will hang a little longer on a smaller frame

This dress was so well documented and photoed when it came out for the Spring 2017 collection it is almost mind boggling. It is instantly recognizable as Phoebe's work and it is amazing. When I started to hunt for references for it I found all the ones that are here, plus there are probably more out there that I just have not yet seen. All of Phoebe Philo's pieces for Celine have reached cult status and the prices are just continuing to rise. Her work is a must have for the vintage collector and this is a particularly hard to find dress that is rare and collectible. 

The dress is made from a stretch jersey and this one is finished in one of the three colours/patterns released in this style. The bodice is set over the bust with a wide flat cut at the top and then it angles down to the keyhole at the waist. There are elastic straps that you slip your arms through and the front just skims over you. The back is left completely bare and dips quite low so your entire back is bare and open. The key hole at the front is set so that it is twisted over itself and just this little detail alone give you a glimpse into the magic of Pheobe's vision and quirky aesthetic. The skirt is suspended from that knotted keyhole at the waist. Elastic runs through the top of it so it is very forgiving and accommodating. The skirt widens out into a loose and easy draping of jersey to the hem. Once you have slipped on the dress it simply hangs and drapes down and around your body. It is incredibly comfortable and easy to wear while being devastatingly sexy. The jersey has a lot of stretch so the size on the tag is almost meaningless. This one is a 34 but will easily fit a range of sizes from probably about a 0 to a 6 or 8 with ease depending on your frame. This is true fashion history and one of the most documented pieces I have ever seen. A testament to the genius of Phoebe and the impact of her work on fashion. It appears to have never been worn or worn very little. Excellent condition

Unlined but the fabric is opaque. It slips on to wear with elastic at all the edges. It is tagged a 34. It appears to have never been worn or worn very little. The fabric has incredible stretch so it should fit a large range of sizes.

Bust: covers to 22" flat across the front
Waist: 13-19" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: open" flat across from side seam to side seam
Bodice: approx 15" from top of bodice to elastic waist
Skirt: approx 42" from waist to hem and might come up a little depsneign on what size you are and its need to stretch horizontally

I think at this point in time everyone pretty much recognizes certain Celine pieces from the Phoebe Philo days and this fringed black dress is one of those iconic looks. This was Look 15 in the Fall 2017 show and was one of two looks in the show that had this fringing detail. The second was for look eight where she wrapped a fringed scarf under a long jacket and over pants. When the collection went to production they also made a dress with sleeves that had this same fringe at the bottom. This one I have today is the twin of the one that was shown on the runway. On the runway they styled it with an added ivory under skirt that peaked out below the fringe. Without that under piece you will see a flash of skin through the fringe as you walk. This show is interesting to research as it is the second show after the Pre-Fall one where Phoebe went completely silent. She once again offered no press quotes, gave no background on her inspiration and was not present at the press previews. It drove the press mad and reviews that you can find online for this time period make that quite clear... but her loyal fans loved here even more for it. Her work has spoken for itself ever since and still garners the same devotion from her fans if not more.

This is such a beautiful dress. You just slip the halter neck part over your head, zip it to close at the back and walk out the door. It is in a black fabric that has some slight weight to it so it holds the shape very well. The neckline is slightly asymmetrical where it slips over your head and at the back of the collar it's notched so that it sits comfortably on the back of your neck. It skimmed down and over your body widening out as it nears the bottom seam before the fringe. At the back it's zippers to the side to follow a seam set there. The back is scooped and open and it is also cut on a slight asymmetrical curve. These are the small little things that people love about her designs. She has these little details that are so subtle but they have this wit and quirkiness and work perfectly to give her pieces that signature Phoebe vibe. The dress falls loose and easy over the body and then is that killer fringed bottom. The fringe that you usually see on things is almost always a braided cord but for this dress it is actually done with an ultra a fine black thread. Hundreds of thousands of threads are attached all around the bottom and they are so fine and light that they give it is incredible movement. They are also amazingly soft in feel. There is a tactile sensation that you just don't get with the fringe out there that you usually see on pieces. And it has pockets. This is the genius of Phoebe where she manages to have something be so perfectly simple and easy and yet have so much drama at the same time. I love it. Excellent condition 

Unlined and slips on to wear with a hidden set zipper set offside at the back. Tagged a Celine 38. Pockets hidden along each hip. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.

Bust: 16" flat across with no true side seams
Waist: 13" flat across from side seam to side seam
