• This easy to wear wrap top most likely dates from the 1984-1985 season.
• It was made under the creative direction of Emanuel Ungaro.
• It would have been made completely by hand in the Paris Atelier
• These are more pieces from the same small collection of Ungaro pieces that have all been dated within a couple of years to each other.
• This is the perfect simple and beautiful top that is easy to wear and feels like a dream once on the body.
• The top is made out of an almost weightless black silk chiffon that is edged in a handmade black lace. The lace continues all the way around the neckline and down both sides of the front. More lace highlights the openings for the arm.
• The silk chiffon that is used for the body of the top is extremely high-quality. It has a touch of transparency to it and feels almost weightless once on the body.
• The lace would have all been handmade and it is all meticulously applied by hand. All of the interior seams are also done by hand.
• To wear it, you simply slip it on wrap, snap and hook the front into place. An interior grosgrain waist stay holds everything perfectly in place around you.
• Do not let its simplicity fool you. It is an absolute work of art.
• The camisole closes with a hidden set snap and interior metal hook that holds the interior waist stay in place. Unlabelled. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
• There is no size tag present because it is true Haute Couture
• Excellent condition

• This gorgeous little easy to wear camisole dated the Spring 1984 collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Emanuel Ungaro.
• It would have been made completely by hand in the Paris Atelier.
• These are more pieces from the same small collection of Ungaro pieces that have all been dated within a couple of years to each other.
• This is the perfect simple camisole that can be worn by itself or layered under other pieces.
• Thin straps curve around the shoulders and I love the detailed ladder stitch that holds the silk ribbon in place and gives the straps extra detail.
• The front is edged in handmade lace that runs down the centre of the camisole. The lace continues all the way around to the back and the upper back is left bare and exposed. More lace finishes the entire bottom hem.
• The silk that is used for the body of the top is extremely high-quality and is light in weight so that it feels like magic once on the body.
• The lace would have all been handmade and it is all meticulously applied by hand. All of the interior seams are also done by hand.
• Do not let its simplicity fool you. It is an absolute work of art.

• The twin of this set walked the runway for the Spring 1988 Jean Louise Scherrer Haute Couture collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Jean Louise Scherrer.
• The set would have been completely made by hand in the Paris atelier.
• I love that we have reference photos so that you can see how phenomenal this is once it is on an actual body. As good as it looks in the photos, it is even better on.
• The silk it is made out of has a soft matte moire pattern finish to it and has just enough weight to hold the intended shape.
• The hand done workmanship on both pieces is phenomenal.
• The skirt is slim cut and on the shorter side. The fabric on it has been gathered up so that it has soft gathers near the top of the hip and the bottom hem at the front. At the back it is all gathered into the centre seam.
• The brevity of the skirt is in sharp contrast with the added volume and fit of the beautiful jacket that tops it.
• The jacket has a full built-in boned inner half corset tacked into the interior that zips in place around you. The outer jacket hooks into place over that with a series of hidden set corset hooks. 
  
• The neck line comes down in a wide squared off scoop that leaves the collar bones exposed and extends out almost to the shoulders.. 
• The edge of the neck line is finished with an elaborate ruffle in a matching silk. The ruffle continues down the front of the jacket and goes all the way around the hem. It is fitted through the waist and meant to have a slight feel of a peplum over the hips.
• The sleeves are incredible. Each is extremely full and they balloon out substantially over the gathered in ruffled cuffs. There is an exaggerated cuff at their ends with a bit of the same fabric wrapped and tied in knot just above the ruffle.
• Three large fabric roses are placed down the front for the perfect feminine and romantic finish.
• This would make an amazing going away suit or a suit to wear as part of your wedding weekend.
• Both pieces are fully lined in a handset pink silk. The skirt zips to close at the back and the jacket closes as described above. The pink is a slightly paler pink in person. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
• The jacket has its proper Haute Couture numbered tag in place.
• There is no size tag present since it is true couture so please go by the measurements listed below.

• This amazing sequin dress is from Mackie's 1980s boutique label.
• It was made under the creative direction of Bob Mackey.
• This is the actual dress that Sarah Snook wore to attend the Director Guild Awards in March 2022.
• Mackie was best known for dressing Cher and for his signature glamour. He worked for both Edith Head and Jean Louis prior to entering costume design and he began by co-designing with Ray Aghayan. That led to his incredible journey in designing for stars like Cher and Diana Ross for many years before launching his own label.
• His work always has that touch of the best of Hollywood glamour.
• The dress has an incredible pattern done in sequins that allows the entire dress to catch the light from every angle.
• The sequins are a glossy black and are set in vertical rows set into rectangular sections over the dress. In between the sections he left bands of the fabric with no sequins to create horizontal and vertical lines.
• The sequins are set so that they slightly overlap the next sequin in line. There are thousands of sequins on this dress.
• The dress is strapless and it is cut to hug the body through the bodice. Inside the waist is cinched and the sequins curve over that inner structure. The inner corset is cupped and boned to hold the dress in place and add shape.
• The dress skims over the hips and falls to the floor, widening out as it nears the hem with a little flare. At the back it is cut longer with extra fabric there to create a little flare. So when you walk you get a little kick of fabric behind you.
• The fabric has a slight stretch to it so it is very easy to fit and comfortable to wear.
• It has a very classic Old Hollywood movie star feel to it. This is a dress that you just slip on and go.
• The bodice has a built in inner corset that is cupped and boned. The rest of the dress is unlined. It closes with a hidden set back zipper. When it was borrowed by Sarah's styling team they added a wide stay under the bust and another around the inner waist. Both hook to close and I have left them in place because it gives extra support. They also temporarily turned the hem up to accommodate her height and it has been let back down to be its full original length. There is one tiny area along the very top edge of the neckline near the zipper that has a couple missing sequins and perhaps a missing sequin here and there. Please see the photo after the label shot.
