The fabric on this coat is amazing!† A luxe combination of gold in different tones and textures, has dramatic accents of a rich coral mixed in. Little pops of silver threads and glossy black finish. The cut is very structural and the weight of the fabric keeps it that way. It is not so heavy that it is unwieldy but it of a weight that when on the shape you see is held perfectly. Each sleeve is cut just above the wrist and they are on the wider side. The only closure is at the neck so anything underneath will peep out. It is just spectacular and the simplicity of the cut only further highlights the drama of that rich, bold fabric. Very couture in feel but sadly it has no labels! Excellent condition

Shoulders: 15.5"
Sleeves: 18"
Bust: 22" flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Waist: 22" flat across the back from side to side
Hips: 23" flat across the back from side to side
Length: 40" from neck to hem

Fully lined in black silky rayon and it closes with hidden fabric snaps at the neck. The flat bow at the neck is just tacked on and could be removed for an even cleaner look. Perhaps the very occasional broken metal thread but I am being pretty picky.

Exquisite, sequin and beaded shell top that is one of the most intricate and beautiful version of these that I have come across! This is an exceptional example of this type of top and a modern girl could work it into her wardrobe by pairing it with unexpected fabrics or cuts (cargoes & sequins anyone?) Glossy black sequins cover every square inch of the shell. Over this is a trail of gorgeous cream flowers on a vine - these are made of cream sequins and gold bead and the sequins are set angled on their sides so that it is 3 dimensional. The vine runs angled down both the front and back and the effect against the black is fabulous! A row of gold fringe completes the bottom! All hand done too! Excellent condition and a show stopping piece!

Gorgeous and glamorous late sixties blouse that is from the same estate as all those amazing sequin tube tops! I love the gold thread lame bits that are fused directly onto the chiffon base. It gives the top a glitzy feel. The matching sash I have styled around the waist is extra long so you can style it at the neck or at the waist or anything else you can think up! I love the huge billowing sleeves - each buttons at the cuff and has lots of volume above. The waist is elastic so it cinches in for the perfect fit with ease. A really exceptional blouse! Excellent, appears unworn condition

This is one of those vintage coats that literally made me squeal out loud when it was presented to me! First and foremost it is in spectacular condition - it literally looks new and after it was specialty cleaned it looked even better! Second it is every inch that classic perfect Dior, Balenciaga, great couturier inspired tent coat of the fifties and in fact, Originala was one of the priciest coat lines you could buy at the time! The cut is extraordinary and even on the mannequin the photos do not convey how this will sit on a real girl. If you are a fan of these coats and seen the best of them in old photos - this is the equivalent. The coat is constructed of a lightweight silk and wool blend that has an extremely fine weave - it feels light to wear but has enough body to hold the form and structure of the coat. The cut is extremely sculptural with lots of volume. The rounded collar sits at the neck and each sleeve is finished with a simple hem, left wide and cut to the elbow. All the volume comes out from the shoulder and when on creates the most dramatic silhouette! Huge front pockets sit on either side and the back has additional fabric for maximum drama. It is exception and wonderfully made and finished! Excellent, appears unworn condition.

Sleeves: approx 15"
Shoulders: no defined seam
Bust: to 27" flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Waist: open
Hips: open
Length: 43" from neck to hem

The cut is very forgiving - my mannequin is a size 4-6 and it is not pinned on her. It will easily work as an over-sized garment on a smaller girl and work equally well on a larger frame. If your shoulders are much more then 16-16.5" across you may find it feels a bit tight there. It has tremendous volume as it is meant to have no matter what your size! Fully lined in black silk. It closes with the large fabric covered buttons at the front and the buttonholes are properly finished. Huge top pockets sit on either side.

This early 1930s, late twenties silk velvet cape is stunningly beautiful. And not only is it beautiful but it looks to have been worn very little if at all and has been stored properly all these years! The color is a rich, deep purple that is so much richer and deeper in person then how it has photographed! The velvet really gives it an extra dimension of depth and texture. The fabric is completely cut on the bias and the inside fabric is as well. The interior is as good as the exterior. A rich cream silk satin feels like heaven on and it is in pristine condition. I love the elaborate and intricate band of gathers that goes across the back and circles to the front. And I love that under the collar is stitched in an intricate pattern of seaming even thought this is almost hidden from view! Really exceptional and a fabulous and rare evening piece. Excellent condition.

Shoulders: no defined seam - see below for more fit notes
Total length: 42" from neck to hem

The cape is fully lined in a rich, thick weight silk of extremely good quality. Hand finished and with a hand set silk loops inside on either side that you can put your arms though if you wish. It has the extraordinary loops and silk velvet covered buttons closure at the neck

Modern Sizing Note: The shoulders will fit up to about 17-18" across before it becomes an issue and sit funny - there is so set seam so if you are smaller it will drape and be fine

The 1960s fabric Cherie chose to be used for this bag is a very unusual silk mix weave that has an almost fine burlap weave feel to it but done in a rich gold and black palette. Marketa took this meticulously hand draped and stitched into place to create this beautiful 3 dimensional bag that is both stunning and decadent! The fabric chosen allowed for only this one bag to be made so it is completely unique and a true one of a kind! It is a chic way to add individuality to any modern ensemble and the perfect vintage twist!

Oliver Goldsmith is an icon who began making hand made sunglasses in the 1960s. Everyone who was anyone wore them from Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's to Grace Kelly. This is an incredible super sized hand made pair in a stunning green tortoiseshell with green tinted glass. This design is called the Luki and is a bespoke frame based on the original vintage frame. These are only available through their bespoke service at the London flagship store. They are completely hand made and would have taken 6-8 weeks to order, have them fitted and delivered. They are huge, over-sized and in perfect unworn condition in their original case. Beautiful, rare and iconic!

These are absolutely amazing, unusual and one of a kind with the most unusual design. The begin as beautifully rhinestone & faux pearl encrusted curves that follow the delicate shape of the ear before cascading into a full 4" drop of multiple pearl chains that each end in a stunning translucent green glass drop.

6" from top to bottom. 1'5" wide. The back is a bronze toned metal and you can clearly see the welding of the posts and ear cuff. It has a post and then top of the back earring has a loop of metal that sits over the top of the ear to hold the top portion in place. No missing stones, no markings. Very well made and solid feeling without being uncomfortably heavy. Comfortable on once you adjust that back top loop that goes over the ear to fit your individual ear - it really balances the weight and distributes it† so there is no pull on the ear like a normal dangle earrign would have. Excellent condition.

This came out of an estate and the woman had several labeled Lanvin pieces and a grouping of what was sold as unlabeled Lanvin as well (see the other listing for a similar top). It certainly has the look of it but other then the fact that I trust the source implicitly and that both tops I am listing today are very well made and have that look of Lanvin I must of course price it as amazing 1950s top in its own right. Made of a fine wool jersey, it is shaped and cut to follow the body. It has a side set zipper indicating its higher end construction. I love the gold leaf-shaped beads, braiding and other beads that circle the neckline - it gives it a subtle, rich feel! Excellent condition.

Bust: 16" flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Waist: 12.5" flat across the back from side seam to side seam
Sleeves: 17"
Total length: 17.5" from neck to bottom hem

Unlined and slips over the head to wear with a side painted metal zipper. Some of the gold has rubbed off the bead work around the neck and there is one missing bead at the front (you could steal one from the back), two on one shoulder and a couple of bent beads near the back - it presents very well despite this and I have priced accordingly.

Assuit scarves were wildly popular in the 1920s as the craze for all things with an Egyptian slant ran rampant. It is a cotton mesh fabric that has tiny little squares of silver hammered thought he weave of the cotton to form the pattern. On this one the pattern has a deco feel with large diamond shapes and finished edges. These originate from the Assuit region of Egypt and have been produced since biblical times. You can still find them today but the original, antique and vintage ones are far heavier and completely hand done - the difference is apparent at a touch!

The edges are hand rolled and stitched. Perhaps a slight oxidation to the silver here and there but I do not consider this a flaw as it is natural patina and adds to its appeal! I find no breaks to the net. The color is more of an ivory in person with no yellow tinge - that is a trick of the light

88" x 24" unstretched and flat. It weighs 9.8 ounces

The top has a high neck and square cut body with a pointed hem. The sleeves are wide and full and they are also cut so that the outer edge ends in a point and the inner seam is left open proposal. Over this is a rounded, backed "cape" that slips on and acts as a giant collar over the top. You can wear it with or without. There are no labels but it has that feel of a Kansai or some other avant garde designer. There is no way this is not a piece that was once labeled! It is amazing! Excellent, appears unworn condition

The Western world in the twenties and thirties had a great fascination with all things art deco and oriental and places like Japan began to export pieces made specifically for the tourist market.

This is a stunning an literally huge antique Chantilly lace shawl that is absolutely exquisite. It measures a full 11 feet x 44 inches ( just over 3 feet) and literally weighs a few ounces despite it immense size. Chantilly lace originated and was created in France and is renowned for its fine delicate weave, outlining of the patterns within it and the very elaborateness of those pattern. Lace is having a huge comeback these days and it would be impossible to find lace of this level and workmanship anymore. This is an extraordinary example of the beauty of Chantilly lace and is equally remarkable for the sheer size of this piece.

The condition is at first appearance excellent but closer inspection did uncover some small breaks and a couple of 4" repairs that were well done but are there upon close inspection - you literally have to lie it flat and go over it to notice! I lowered my price quite a bit on this to accommodate for these small flaws and none of the breaks are so large as to detract or take away from this extraordinary textile and in my opinion the old and well done repairs only add to the immense beauty of this shawl!

Wonderful and unique top that I feel must have had a label at some point as it is so striking and unusual - perhaps Kenzo or of that ilk?

The body of the top is cut straight and is hand painted in a wild clash of colors. Metallic ribbon edges the sides, sits on each sleeve and are used to create the ties at the front. Those ties go almost to the waist so if you wear a nude underpinning you will create the illusion of being completely bare underneath! Fabulous! Excellent condition.

These are crazy and rare, dramatic harem pants done in a blue suede by Kenzo! Brilliant blue suede is cut in a notched in waist, wide hip pant that is cuffed on each ankle! The waist is brought in by a series of pleats on the back and the front. The hips are crazy wide and the inseam is dropped. This narrows to a cuff that snap to close. Side pockets allow for the perfect cool girl slouch. I love them! Excellent condition

Waist: 12.5" from side seam to side seam
Hips: to 24" from side seam to side seam
Total length: 41" from waist line to bottom hem
Inseam: 27"

The pants are fully lined in a blue silky rayon and close with a front zipper and a large snap on the waist. Each cuff closes with two snaps. These have been professional and specialty cleaned. There is some light natural very minor darkening around the snap areas from normal use but they present perfectly.

Before Hermes had a presence in the US they sold their goods through Bonwit Teller and the label on these piece had both houses. It is pre-era of blind stamps. Older pieces are very rare and this "collaborative" period only happened for a short time so for the die hard Hermes collector this is a find!

Made of a beautiful off white leather with and adjustable navy front that incorporates the buckles hook. I believe the hardware to be gold plated. Rare and in excellent condition with just a hint of patina to the hardware. This makes it better in my opinion! Otherwise it appears to have been used very little if at all.

32.5" x 1.75" and the buckle is 1.5" across. at its present length it will accommodate a 31" waist and I believe you can move the navy piece to adjust further. All era appropriate stamps.

Authentic and appears to have been worn very little.

Item# A171

I highly suspect that this as a piece by Adolfo. I have a swatch of fabric that is almost the exact material that is from an Adolfo skirt and the two are remarkably close! Sadly this has no label so I cannot verify that but it is well made and fabulous enough to be a designer piece! Made of ribbon feeling silk taffeta that is intermixed with bands of lace. The texture is created by bands of elastic rows - this gives it the most phenomenal texture and visual interest! I love that both the hem and the top are left with a ruffled ribbon finish! Excellent, appears unworn condition

Waist: will stretch 13-15" from side seam to side seam comfortably
Hips: open
Total length: 43" from waist to hem

Unlined and with row set banding of elastic at the waist. No closures - it just slips on.
