• The twin of this dress was Look 52 from the Christian Dior Cruise 2009 collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of John Galliano.
• The Vogue report on the collection noted that: "Galliano has been mining the good old U.S. of A. for raw material from which to spin his dreams....grandes dames like Barbara Hutton, Millicent Rogers, and Nan Kempner—women who weren't afraid to make a bold sartorial statement, one that preferably involved a whopping piece of jewelry. From a shimmering backdrop that conjured a Tony Duquette garden, there emerged a full wardrobe for their modern-day counterparts in Palm Beach, Beverly Hills, and Dallas.... What this season is really about is not so much breaking the mold as delivering a vision of the good life—and Galliano can do that in spades."
• This is the actual address that worn by Caitlin Thompson to the 2024 Emmys.
• Emmy Rossum also appeared in its twin in 2009 and I love that the reference photos show just how wonderful this dress is once on the body.
• The dress is made out of a pale pastel silk chiffon that is in the beautiful pastel shade of a turquoise / seafoam green. It is an absolutely beautiful colour and even better in person.
• The bodice is cut slightly wider across the neck and it is meant skim lightly over you to the waist.
• The waist is defined by a wide beaded band that highlights and adds shape.
• From there curves back out over the hips and then cascades to the floor gently widening out as it near the hem. 
• The entire dress is finished with silk chiffon ruffles that are stacked and set to slightly overlap the ruffle sitting underneath all the way down to the hem, with the only break being the detailing around the waist for added shape.
• The ruffles add a lovely soft bit of movement as you move, and I love how he has played with the width of the ruffles as they work their way down to the floor. It makes it more visually interesting and also allows the dress more movement than if he had kept the ruffles all the same size.
• Extensive bead work wraps all the way around the band of the waist. The work has been completely done by hand and the beads are set out in a complex pattern with pale ivory beads mixed with beads of various sizes and finished in romantic pinks and soft greens.
  
• This is a phenomenal runway piece by John Galliano for Dior and is one of the prettiest dresses that he ever created.
• The dress is fully lined in a matching colour silk. It closes with a hidden set zipper at the side and there are hidden hooks on the top of one shoulder. I see one bead missing at the back of the waist. The bead work has all been added by hand.

• The twin of this dress in red was Look 41 on the Fall 2006 Dior runway.
• It was made under the creative direction of John Galliano.
• He began his own label in 1984 and he was instantly a bit of a 'boy wonder' in fashion. He was British Fashion Council Designer of the Year in 1987, 1994 and 1995. In 1991 he made his Paris catwalk debut. In 1995 he was asked to head Givenchy and then went to Dior in October of 1996. 
• His bias cut pieces have a feeling of the decadence and abandonment of the twenties and they are beautifully cut. They marry Old Hollywood with the minimalist spirit of the nineties and early 2000s and the results are stunning. 
• The red version was used for the ad campaign that year and was worn by Kate Moss. It has become one of his most iconic dresses.
• We have had this dress in red in the past and it flew. I love having another in this soft pale grey colour. It is just dreamy.
• The dress takes inspiration from the bias cut couture pieces of the 1920s and 1930s. The seam work and simplicity of this dress is stunning to see and it is even better on an actual body.
• It is made from a beautiful silk velvet in a pale silver grey. A design that includes the Christian Dior name has been pressed into the velvet over the entire dress. This gives it this incredible added texture that you see in the photos.
• The dress is completely cut on the bias so that it flows over the body and skims its way over the bust, waist and hips as it falls to the floor.
• The neckline drapes down and there is a panel of silk chiffon tucked just inside the neckline at both the back and the front. This creates a bit of a swooping plunge that is slightly set to the side. Thin bands of a silver grey grosgrain ribbon run up the sides of the dress and around the waist. The velvet is gathered into the ribbon in various spots to create the asymmetrical draping.
• The skirt flows down to the floor from there, skimming over the hips and then flaring out as it reaches the hem. This gives you a ton of movement around the lower skirt when you walk or move. It also adds to the hourglass shape that the dress has. 
  
• This is an amazing example of his work from Dior and it is gorgeous. 
• The bodice is lined in a pale grey silk chiffon and the skirt is unlined. It closes with a hidden set zipper down one side. The bias cut fabric does have some stretch.  There is a small mark on the inner silk chiffon. Please see the ohoto after the label shot. The measurements below give you the comfortable range the fabric has when lying flat. It is in its original unaltered length. The bias cut should allow it to fit a range of sizes

• The twin of this dress walked the Cruise 2020 Dior show for Look 107.
• It was made under the creative direction of Maria Grazia Chiuri.
• This collection was shown in Marrakech and Vogue review said the collection was "about luxury, globalism, and culture". 
• I love the pieces from this collection that were made out of these metallic knit fabrics. They have the feel of some of fabrics from the seventies and are just magical. 
• The fabric has more copper toned metallic thread running through a deep dusky blueish grey base with tones of deep, blues, and greens that form a print  that is worked over the skirt. 
• The metallic thread runs over the entire dress in a vertical pattern. Where it turns into a print, the metallic is used to highlight and edge the print. This gives the dress a subtle shimmer from every angle. 
• The bodice of the dress is loose and easy with a keyhole slit that runs down the centre. The more generous cut allows for a more easy fit.
• The shoulders are soft and extend out into wonderfully full sleeves that pouf out over their cuffs.The sleeves are meant to sit between the elbow and wrist as you can see in the reference photos and each cup closes with little hidden set buttons.
• The waist it seamed but has a more generous feel. If you wanted to add more shape you could easily add a belt.
• The skirt is cut to be very full and wide. It is gathered in around the waist and this is what gives it the incredible fullness that it has. And it has pockets. 
• It is a really an outstanding piece and beautifully constructed.
• The dress is unlined but comes with its original nude coloured silk chiffon slip that is worn underneath the dress. The inner slip closes with a hidden set side, zipper, and the outer dress closes with a hidden set box zipper, and a hidden set button at the front neck above the keyhole. Each cuff closes with two hidden set buttons. The label is on the slip. The metallic of the fabric has loose threads here and there over the dress. This is a natural occurrence with this type of fabric.
• The slip is tagged a modern Dior FR 42, GB 14, IT 46, US 10

• This gorgeous dress is a true couture piece from the Fall 1970 Haute Couture collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Marc Bohan.
• The book Dior:Catwalk noted that the Vogue proclaimed that "Any woman anywhere on earth would want to own these total feminine clothes"
• In the few photos that survive of pieces from this collection, it is interesting to note that he showed most of these shift dresses under capes, which would be a lovely combination even now.
• This dress would have been made entirely by hand in the Paris atelier. 
• The dress is made out of a jet black silk velvet that is extremely soft to the touch and has beautiful drape.
• I love the nod to classic minimalism that the dress displays.
• Straps in a matching black velvet curve up and over your shoulders and then the front and back have just the most gentle bit of a scoop across. Just enough to take away the harshness a straight line would have.
• It skims over the bust and is cut more generously over the waist so that it falls in a perfect shift or column feel around you. If you wanted to add more shape you could easily add a belt or corded rope tie.
• It flares slightly out over the hips and then the skirt falls from there widening out as it near the hem.
• The dress closes down one side with glossy black buttons and I love the deliberate contrast in texture that it has against the black velvet. That pop of shine of the high gloss of the buttons is the perfect subtle detail against the inky texture of the velvet.
• The buttons close the dress down one side to just past the hip and then the rest of that seam is completely open all the way to the hem. When you walk, move or sit, you get a flash of bare leg all the way up that one side. It is almost startling to have that flash of bare skin against the column of black and I love this play between elegance and sexiness.
• It is a dress that appears to be so simple in shape but every seam and line of the dress was purposefully and masterfully executed and planned.
• This is an extraordinary example of his work during this time period and it is an absolutely stunning dress.
• The dress is fully lined in a matching hand set black silk and closes at the side with the row of buttons. All of the work is done by hand to Couture standards and it has its appropriately dated couture tag present. It appears to have been worn very little at all.
• There is no size tag present because it is Couture so please go by the measurements listed below.
• Excellent condition

Bust: to 16.5" flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: to 15" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: to 18.5" flat across from side seam to side seam

• The dress is from the Fall 2009 collection and the same fabric was seen on the runway in other pieces.
• It was created under the creative direction of John Galliano.
• The show was inspired by 1920s and the 1920s Orientalism of couturier Paul Poiret and you can see that in the fabric of this dress and its nod to the metallic silk lames that were seen so prominently during that era.
• The dress is made from the most striking metallic silver & black fabric that has a subtle silver shimmer from head to toe. The photos capture the colour well, but it has a slightly more metallic feel in person that is really outstandingly beautiful.
• It is completely cut on the bias so that it falls and drapes beautifully over the body.
• The neck line is cut wide across and the shoulders extend slightly over the top of the arm. The bodice has angled darts that come out from the centre of the waist and it is cut to skim over you down to the waist area.
• The waist is shaped by a combination of the seam work there and the gathering at the front. After curving in around the waist it curves back out and over the hips.
• The skirt falls from there to the floor and I love how the bias cut narrows it in around the legs slightly and then the lower portion of skirt flares out dramatically. The back of the skirt is cut slightly longer than the front so you get this phenomenal sweeping feel behind you along with added movement as you walk and move.
• The way it is gathered in around the hips is a strong nod to pieces from the 1930s and 1940s. These are eras that John touched on quite often and that is showcased beautifully in this particular piece. There is a centre seam where all of the fabric has been gathered in towards to create shape and interest around the waist and the of the top of hips.
• The dress is in its original uncut length and just an incredible example of his work from time period. 
• It is fully lined in black silk and closes with a back hidden set zipper. I see some faded marks to the interior lining around the hem. I think this is from storage. The exterior is pristine. When the dress is off the body, the inner lining hangs a bit past the hem but once it was on the dress form, it falls right. This is because of the bias cut of the inner lining - it doesn't shorten to match the exterior hem until there is a body in it.
• There is no size tag present so please go buy the measurements listed below
• Excellent condition.

Bust: 16-17.5" flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: 12-14" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: 17-21" flat across from side seam to side seam
Total length: 64" from shoulder to front hem in the back extends another 2" past that.

• The twin of this dress was Look 35 on the Spring 2008 Yves Saint Laurent runway for Look 35.
• It was made under the creative direction of Stefano Pilati
• On the runway the dress was worn by Freja and it was also shot on Kate Moss that season.
• Stefani said that he had been thinking of "goddesses and stars" for the evening pieces.
• This was the strongest dress of the collection and I love having all of these reference photos for you because you can see just how beautiful this dress is on the body.
• The dress is made out of a beautifully weighted silk that is cut on the bias. The colour is a deep fuchsia pink. That is a rich and lovely jewel tone.
• The end entire dress falls from one shoulder. The sleeve on that side is kept simple, starting out wide from the body and then narrows at the cuff.
• The front of the dress angles down on a curve and it does the same at the back. It is more fitted through the bust and curves past the waist.
• The bias cut lets it skim and fall over the hips to highlight your curves.
• The skirt falls from there and is made from seamed panels that give a nod to the thirties in their execution.
• The skirt is very full and that, combined with the bias cut, give this incredible movement as you move. It  is an extremely sensual and sexy feeling dress once on.
• I think this was one of the strongest dresses of his entire time at this label.
• The dress is fully lined in a matching pink silk and it closes with a hidden set zipper at the side. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
• There is no size tag present so please go by the measurements listed below.

• The twin of this dress in an ivory walked the runway for the Fall 2005 collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Richard Tyler.
• This is the actual dress that was worn by Brie Larson to the 2024 Creative Arts Emmys so has that amazing added modern provenance.
• This colourway may have been a special order or more limited production piece. We love that the multiple photos show just how fantastic this is once on the body. We have a small clip of the dress Brie as she walked on stage on our Instagram, if you want to see it moving.
• The dress is strapless with a full boned inner corset that holds the dress in place around you. 
• It is made from an inner brilliant turquoise coloured silk organza that was then covered with a pale greenish toned ivory silk organza over top. You can see how bright the inner blue is on the label shot. That layering of the two colours is integral to the final colour of the dress.
• I love how he allowed the turquoise to peek out just to touch along the very edge of wherever there is a pleated seam. The workmanship to do this so perfectly for every single edge is almost unimaginable.
• Intricate curving flat pleats start along the top of the bodice and then these curve over to one side where they become curving seams. As they run down and over the dress, each created panel expands and gets wider, creating the beautiful curving pattern over the dress. As these reach the hip area the pleats fully open and this is what creates the volume through the skirt.
• The skirt falls to the floor from there to the floor. One side is cut so that it falls with more volume and it is also cut longer as it curves around to the back where it stands out beyond the hem. This creates that gorgeous trained feel that it has and you can see how beautiful this is in the reference photos.
• The turquoise silk inner layer axe as the lining. The inner bodice is boned and an inner waist stay that hooks to close was added when it was lent to further help hold it in place. The dress closes with a hidden set side zipper. I see some light marks and grubbiness here and there on both layers of silk along the train hem.

• The twin of this gorgeous dress was presented for the Resort 2009 collection for Look 16.
• It was made under the creative direction of Alessandra Facchinetti
• Vogue noted that it was her third Valentino collection and for this one she "sketched a portrait of a lady in soft hues - pearl grey, icy white, and blush pink - punctuated, with pops of chartreuse and a rich fuchsia... Ruffles found their most elegant expression in organza gowns. Smartly paired with metallic flats these embrace the bodice before walking into the floor". There were three dresses presented in this similar cut - one in black, one in this dusty pastel gray green and one in a white. This was the more elaborate of the three.
  
• The dress is made out of a pale pastel green-blue silk organza that is cut to be more fitted around the bodice and then flows in a cascade of ruffles over the skirt. The fabric choice keeps the dress light in weight and gives it beautiful movement. 
• The entire top portion of the dress is gathered in from the shoulders down and into the waist on curves that angle towards the centre. The straps are a touch wider as they curve over the shoulder and it comes in at the waist. The gathering and draping over the bodice is beautiful and detailed.
• Edging the front neckline is a series of little raw edged bows that are held in place by a heavy application of hand applied beads, stones, rhinestones, sequins and metal thread. This follows the neckline all the way down to where it crosses and insert into the waist. There is a modesty panel that keeps it from being too low. If you did wish to have this have a full plunging feel it would be easy to have that adjusted/removed.
• The skirt falls from under there and it is a little masterpiece of panelling and drape. The front panel is a lighter silk jersey and it is heavily gathered at the centre of the waist to fall and expand out as it near the floor. A matching panel to that runs down the centre of the back.
• The side panels of the skirt are made of the organza and there are added panels of organza layered onto those to create those giant ruffles that you see falling down each side and around to the back. These fall all the way down to the hem and create that beautiful structure that you see in the photos. Because the organza is so light in weight when you move, everything moves around you beautifully.
• This is an extraordinarily beautiful dress and I love its added provenance with its royal tie in.
• The dress is fully lined in a matching silk chiffon. The skirt has an additional two layers of silk chiffon under the top layer and these act as the lining. I see a tiny repair near where one ruffle is stitched to the side, but it's on the underneath so does not show. The dress closes with a hidden set side zipper.
• There is no size tag present so please go by the measurements below.
• Excellent condition

Bust: to 18" flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: 14" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: to 19" flat across from side seam to side seam

• The twin of this dress walked the runway for the Fall 2008 Emanuel Ungaro collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Esteban Cortazar.
• Estaban headed the label from 2007 to 2009, succeeding Peter Dundas. He was only 23 when he began there. 
• He brought a softer look to the label and you can clearly see that in this dress. On the runway this dress was shown with a wide belt. And you could certainly add one if you wanted to add some more shape but I love it just on its own as shown here.
• The dress is made out of a printed silk chiffon with a soft, pale, grey tone, floral pattern worked over at surface. The silk is interspersed with silvery toned pale grey panels of jersey that help shape the direction of the fabric and add some structure to create the way the dress falls over the body.
• A band of fabric wraps around the neck and then extends out into long ties that fall down the back in the most beautiful way.
• At the front the silk is gathered into the band at the neck and then sweeps down and around to the back.
• This leaves the sides partially exposed and the entire back from the waist up is left completely open and bare. Only the ties that extend from the back of the neck break the bareness of the skin there. It feels soft and feminine yet very sexy at the same time.
• The waist is seamed and the front halter blouses over the seam. Under that the skirt curves out and over the hips and then sweeps down to the floor.
• The jersey panels are set in curving angles down one side of the dress with the silk set so they blouse slightly over the jersey insets. This perfectly ties the way the top blouses over at the waist and creates a pretty detailing all the way down the skirt.
• The very lower portion of the skirt is quite full and moves beautifully as you move. You can see that in the reference runway video here.
  
• It is a very romantic and beautiful feeling dress.
• The dress is fully lined in a pale grey silk chiffon through the bodice and stretch pale grey jersey through the skirt. It closes with a hidden set zipper and snaps along the back waist. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
• There is no size tag present so please go by the measurements listed below
• Excellent condition

Bust: very flexible and open to most sizes
Waist: 13" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: 17-21" flat across from side seam to side seam
