Love this little silk dress that simply wraps into place and weighs ounces. Tuleh did the flirty cocktail dress to perfection and I think this is one of their best examples. The silk is very light weight and I love the little white star print in the black. Their signature is scattered through the print as well. The wrap cut is very sexy since you can tie it to be more modest or allow for a dramatic front plunge. The waist can be cinched with the long attached ties for maximum curves. The skirt is cut so that it is shorter at the front and this allows for more leg to show when you move. The entire front edges are finished with a ruffle and that same ruffle finishes each sleeve as well. It is so feminine and that star print is perfect for the season. Excellent, appears unworn condition.
Unlined and wraps to close with the attached tie belt, Tagged a size 4 but please check measurements - due to the wrap cut you can easily add or subtract at least an inch to the ones listed below.

The colors in this gown are amazing, and when combined with the gold metallic threads that run top to bottom on this gown it is just beautiful. The exterior layer is a silk organza that besides the gold threading has a secondary print running through it. I love the richness of the deep red tones mixed with the gold threading and the little gold thread medallions woven through the fabric. The medallions each have a little exotic felling design woven into each of them for a third texture. All this layered over the interior red silky rayon lining really creates a nice, rich hippie chic, exotic feel. The sleeves are wonderful, each wrist is caught up with an elastic finish so that the sleeve puffs out above to create a subtle billowing. The neck is simple and high and the skirt is full but not overly and flares out as it falls to the floor. It is a beautiful, dramatic piece. Excellent condition.
Fully lined in a deep red silky rayon with the sleeves left unlined. It closes with a back painted metal zipper. Each sleeve has an elastic at the cuff.

This top and skirt set from the Anglomania Vivienne Westwood label is fantastic. I love the sexy hourglass silhouette, this two piece outfit has and it is not only sexy but versatile too. Both pieces are made from a cotton mix and are light weight to wear. The skirt is beautifully cut it has a more fitted feel but with extra fabric and detail at the back that gives just a hint of a bustle and flirty kick. The corset top can be worn as a jacket layered over other pieces as well as on its own and is classic unabashedly Westwood with its low wide cut front that shows off the bust line and the notched low collar that sits along the shoulders. The waist nips in and a peplum finish adds to the curved appeal of the set. The jacket has an almost distressed feel to the fabric as if it was worn and loved but this is entirely intentional on the designer part. It's fabulous! Being separates you can wear and style them a million different ways. Excellent condition
Both pieces are unlined. The top buttons down the front as seen and the skirt closes with a zipper. Both pieces are tagged a 42 but please check actual measurements

Fabulous and very sexy Missoni knit gown in their signature multi-hued print. This one is cut to show off the body with an around the neck halter and a deep front plunge. This curves around and leaves the back entirely bare! The bodice flows into a nipped in waist and then the skirt cascades to the floor skimming over the hips and flaring out gently as it nears the hem. I love the bias cut feel the light knit gives and the movement that this creates through the skirt. The knot itself has a touch of metallic so the texture and depth is incredible. Excellent, appears unworn condition!

This is a lovely and versatile dress with a very easy to wear cut to it. The cut has a plunging neck with a tie sitting at the bottom of the plunge and because of the way it is cut it works equally as well to wear this at the back as it does the front. On the opposite side the collar is high and has soft pleats where the fabric is set into it - the attached tie acts as a high collar and the way it drapes again works whether you wear it at the front or the back. The cut is full so you can wear it loose and easy like a caftan or you could easily belt it to create shape. To contrast the fullness through the body, each sleeve is more fitted and skinny. I love the dusting of rhinestones that runs over the fabric near the plunge to create just a touch of glitz. Excellent condition
The inner attached jersey dress acts as the lining. The exterior dress is semi-transparent. Slips on to wear.

This dress is insane and yet still fabulous. The fabric is so unusual. It is a bright neon pink and is like nothing I have seen before. It is very plush - almost like a cross between a long velvet and a chenille but with this odd almost "crunchy" tactile feel to it. The collar is padded and rounded and cut to sit off the shoulders and has an almost space age feel to it. The body skims over the waist and it is super short. You can't help but get the attention of every eye when you walk into a room in this little number - it is drama and attention getting to the extreme, Really unusual and unique. I love it.

A very fine and fabulous sequin wiggle dress by Donald Brooks that I just adore. If you love it in the photos you will love it even more when you actually get to see the level of construction and work that would have been done to so densely hand apply all the tiny sequins by hand to cover the dress with this amount of coverage. The base fabric is black and cut to mold itself to the bust and waist and then the skirt flares out. The surface of the dress is entirely covered in glossy black sequins and it really catches the light wonderfully. I love the cut of the skirt with its draped panels of fabric that create a pretty wave when you are standing still and really flare out the skirt and give it volume if you twirl. The waist nips in to create that sexy bombshell silhouette and the dress is suspended form the shoulders by sequin covered straps that narrow from the V neckline. Excellent condition.
Fully lined in a black silky rayon. Closes with a back painted metal zipper. Perhaps an occasional sequin missing but no bare areas at all that I can find. Hand finishes. Very light and fluid.

This is one of those dresses that is just downright pretty. The combination of the simple cut, pretty floral pattern and pink palette really give it a feminine and romantic feel. Made of a textured cotton mix fabric it has a combination of a striped and floral texture woven through it that highlights the pretty pink and green floral design screened onto it from top to bottom. The skirt is gathered in at the waist and cascades to the floor. The bodice is a simple cross over and sleeveless and I love the wide pink velvet ribbon that wraps around the waist and ends in an offset bow. Very pretty and has the feel of spring to it. Excellent, appears unworn condition

What a beautiful Pucci dress that is constructed from one of his signature silk jerseys with a bright pattern in a mix of colors that just pops off the black backdrop. The bodice skims over the bust to the waist and the waist is accented by a contrasting printed border. Another border accents the high V neck. The bodice tops a sleek and simple skirt with a slight Aline cut and another accenting border around the hem and up one side. The sleeves are left simple and slim cut. This is a classic Pucci silhouette that is instantly recognizable and very sexy despite it not being super form fitting. I love all the contrasting print panels that give the cut visual definition. A band of that print also runs down the back top of the dress. The colors all pop against each other beautifully. Excellent condition.
Unlined and closes with a back hidden, painted metal zipper and hand covered snaps to close the panel of fabric over the zipper.

"I wanted to push print to the limit" said Mary Katranzou to Style.com of this collection. On the runway this print combination was shown on a similar bodice with a china (as in chinaware) inspired corseted hip peplum and the skirt was shown long and flowing. For retail production the pattern was used on the silhouette that seemed to be the hit of the show and one that would become a mainstay as we see Mary grow and develop collection after successful collection. It is strapless and fitted through the bodice and then the hip is cut to shape and flare in a rounded curve. The two contrasting prints are stunning and work perfectly together. She is absolutely one of the new guard and pieces like this from her early collections will only become more collectible and valuable as time passes and her star continues to rise. Excellent, appears unworn condition

This is the kind of dress that the house of Chanel really excels at with its understated elegance and beautiful lines. The fabric is a soft dove grey and the fabric has an almost subtle angora feel to it, but it is actually a combination of wool and silk thread. I imagine that it is a fabric that Chanel had made solely for them as most of their fabric are. The dress was a touch too large on my mannequin so in real life will sit a little better on a girl who is the correct size for the dress. I love the flat pleat work that adorns the front bodice and the classic Chanel pockets that sit on both sides of the bodice and are placed on each hip. The dress is finished with a deep red pipe detail that gives it a pop of color and highlight the lines of the dress. It has a flattering cut with a bit of a dropped waist that harkens back to the early days of Chanel. Finished with 14 logo embossed gold toned metal buttons that are each signed. Excellent condition

This Malcolm Starr is stunning. The fabric hits you right off - it is a beautiful silver metallic brocade with a diamond pattern running over it that has a touch of dimension so you really get amazing play on light. The dress is cut with a baby doll silhouette with a definitive swing cut to it as the skirt widens out with a dramatic sweep. The waist line is high and big bold buttons adorn the front, emphasizing that Alice in Wonderland, baby doll feel even more. The sleeves are long and slim. The buttons at the front are incredible - each is a domed metal button with cut work and rhinestones laid along its curved surface - almost like little crowns. The detail I love the most though is that fabulous soft curved peat created at the front and the fact the along each side seam are little hidden pockets. Excellent condition.
Fully lined in a silver toned silky rayon and closes with a back painted metal zipper. The zipper is set to follow and be hidden by the seam up on side! The front metal domed buttons are inlaid with rhinestones and I see no missing stones. They are decorative only. Front pockets along the seam. Hand finished.

I have had the twin of this little sequin set pass through my hands once or twice on the past and each time I am thrilled to have it as it is just such a great set. The silhouette feels fresh right now too and its well made and fabulous. Mollie Parnis is one of my favorite American designers and this little set is one of the reasons why. The base is a light stretch lurex knit that will move and stretch to drape and cling to the body in the best possible way. Over this, hundreds of gold sequins have been sewn into place so the entire set gleams and glitters in the light. The cut is spectacular - the fabric means it forms to the body but then the sleeves and pant legs are flared out and wide. The lightness of the fabric means that these drape and move fabulously too and it all adds up to a long and lean silhouette. Excellent condition.
Both piece are unlined and have some stretch to the fabric. The tunic closes with a back metal and nylon zipper and the pants have elastic at the waist.

How absolutely gorgeous is this dress? Made by Gino Charles for Malcolm Starr, it is yet another shining example of why we love these kind of pieces around here. I love the slightly medieval vibe it has created by the placement of the panels. It has a real richness to it with that pretty green tone mixed with the gold thread and contrasting pink panels. It is made of a screened poly organza with little gold thread medallions woven through it. The medallions are scattered over both the pink and green panels so the entire dress has a subtle glint in the light. Each panel is separated by a waved gold cord that has little green rhinestones set in the tops of each wave. Very pretty. This combined with the way the colors are laid out really creates a nice, hippie chic, exotic feel. I love the full puffed sleeves that billow above each cuffed wrist. The neck is simple and high and the skirt is full but not overly . It is a beautiful, dramatic piece and presents as excellent condition.
Fully lined in a pale pink silk with the sleeves left unlined. It closes with a back painted metal zipper . Each cuff closes with hidden set snaps. Note that there are perspiration marks on the inner lining. They do not show at all on the exterior but are present inside. It has been professionally cleaned (as are all our garments) and there are no odours or other issues. I have reduced the price substantially so you are getting an amazing dress at about half the price for an issue that does not show when on. Note that the colors are a little more "pastels" and softer then how it photoed

This beautiful 1960s gown has an almost identical fabric to an Oscar De La Renta I have had in the shop so I am very happy with the quality of it. It is shockingly light - I know it looks like it should not be with the gold - at first glance it appears to be a brocade - but the fabric is actually a really unusual textured silk organza fabric. Onto this, gold thread has been worked in to highlight the vibrant print that is custom screened onto the gown. The pattern is fantastic - purples and corals mix with pink flowers that explode across a deep blue backdrop. It is cut in a long sheath that widens as it nears the hem making it very easy to wear. I love how the design is set on an angle - this cleverly draws the eye and creates a longer. leaner silhouette. The sleeves are left unlined for a bit of different texture and weight and gold flat braiding circles the neck for a pretty finish. Excellent condition

This wonderful printed silk Malcolm Starr is quite beautiful and I love the bright cheery feel it has. One can imagine this as originally residing in the closet of some fabulous and happy girl and it would have been a piece that they would have thrown on with jeweled sandals, champagne glass in hand, to entertain in or to go dancing. The design is a bright combination of pinks with pops of coral and greens screened onto a twill silk. The colors are still crisp and true due to the high grade of silk used. Easy to wear with a simple bodice that buttons down the front with pretty jeweled buttons. The skirt is amazing with lots of fullness and an almost baby doll feel to it. Excellent condition.
Fully lined in a off white semi sheer silky rayon. It closes to the waist with buttons and then wraps over itself at the waist and secures with hidden snaps.

I love both the chic little lines of this dress, in person you get a better sense of the subtle pleat work that runs down the front as well as that amazing print. It is Miss Dior and is constructed to extremely high standards - all hand finished and properly done with every stitch. It is cut on a slight A-line and has a nice sharp feel to its sheath dress lines. It is cut to have a bit of swing to it but also has a belt that you can choose to wear with it to add and define some shape. Made of a fine light challis that holds the shape and color beautifully but is not heavy or bulky at all. Really a jewel. Excellent condition

The Silverman company closed in 1978 and they donated their archives and clothing collection to the Kent State University which formed the start of the Museum there. It is always lovely to have apiece form a designer whose name will continue through the efforts of museums like that. This is a really spectacular one shoulder silk chiffon dress and is utterly and perfectly feminine. It is constructed of a pretty silk chiffon that flows and moved beautifully. The design that runs over it is amazing with a floral motif in pinks and blues. It is almost weightless and yet constructed so that it drapes on the body perfectly. The skirt is to the floor and has lots of fabric in it which gives it a very floating effect when you move. The waist is cinched under the fitted one shoulder bodice. Excellent condition

This is a beauty. I absolutely fell in love with it. I love the bright and pretty combination of pinks and corals that will flatter almost any skin tone. I love the unique design, on one side you have a long and lean silk chiffon sleeve and on the other the cut is pure caftan with no sleeve underneath just a flowing swath of silk chiffon draping to the floor. The dress underneath is a chic column of silk chiffon on the same pattern so you get a marvelous effect with the layering the the design. The front is a high neck but the back is scooped low and rounded leave a bare expanse of skin. Very sexy. It moves and floats around the wearer. The print is a fabulous angular design bu the background of it has an almost subtle tie dye effect. Very unique and very beautiful. Excellent, appears unworn condition.
The inner dress is lined with a second layer of a coral silk chiffon. The exterior sleeve and top layer of silk chiffon that form the caftan feel are unlined. It closes with side zipper on the inner dress

I love the vintage vibe that this fabulous Dolce and Gabbana dress has with its combination of patterns and the fitted silhouette. The photos really don't do it justice in capturing how wonderful the two fabrics work together in person and how they play off of each other. The top fabric has an almost puffed, three dimensional feel to it that is created by a silver metallic silver thread that runs through. It gives the top portion a real very sixties vibe. This pretty fabric goes perfectly with the beautiful quilted floral silk that is used for the skirt. A wide black grosgrain band defines the waist and anchors the entire dress. And the fact that the lining is down in their signature leopard? Just the perfect hidden finishing touch. Excellent, appears unworn condition.

This is a super cute, later version of one of the most iconic Cardin designs. I have had one of the originals in the shop in the past (see it here) and I could not resist this little version even though I normally do not buy the later pieces. However the pretty color and good quality construction made me make an exception for this. This is based on one of his most iconic designs that features a round cut out at the neck and a great little shift shape that widens slightly as it nears the hem. The fabric is a great pop of color to add into your wardrobe and the shape is flattering. the fabric is a stretch wool crepe and very easy to wear and light. Super cute!

The earlier Moschino pieces are so much fun! They have that bit of wit that Franco Moschino so successfully infused into them. His clothes are always cut well, due to his tailoring beginnings and this balances out the sometimes outrageous designs. This little fitted shift has a bold black and white dot print. Onto the front are huge appliques of fruit that pop off the dotted background in vivid colors. They include cherries, a lemon,orange and watermelon slice. It is a definite showpiece and so fun! Presents as excellent condition.
Fully lined in a white silky rayon and closes with a back zipper. There are a couple of teeny storage marks on the dots on the front - super size the picture and look between the orange and watermelon. They do not distract at all.

During the nineties the Versace label reigned supreme. The house created the supermodel, made sexy a mainstay and did it all within an amazing canvas of baroque and floral inspired prints. Here we have an amazing printed body suit and fitted mini skirt from the Versus label that debuted in 1993. Both pieces are made of a simple soft stretch cotton. The body suit is cut with no sleeves and a deep V plunge neck and the back plunges even deeper! The skirt is a pull on mini in a matching print. The fabric is meant to stretch and hug your every curve so it is very sexy on. The print is fabulous and pure Versace. Flowers and abstract shapes in blues, yellows and pinks are screened across the surface of both pieces in a striped design that makes you look even longer and leaner. Insanely good and micro short for maximum leg exposure. For the Versace collector this is heaven! Excellent, appears unworn condition.
Made of a stretch soft cotton. The skirt slips on to wear and has an elastic running through the waist. The body suit slips on with no closures and shows no sign of ever being worn.

During the nineties the Versace label reigned supreme. The house created the supermodel, made sexy a mainstay and did it all within an amazing canvas of baroque and floral inspired prints. Here we have an amazing printed body suit and the matching tights from the Versus Jeans Couture label. The body suit is made of a simple soft stretch cotton and the pants are made of the same fabric. The body suit is cut with a scooped neck and sides, while the tights are just that - cut to be tight and fitted and hug your every curve. They are done in a matching print to the body suit. The print is fabulous and pure Versace. Huge flowers swirl in a print of blues, greens, yellows and pinks and then that is trimmed with the Versace black and white check. Insanely good and very nineties supermodel. For the Versace collector this is heaven! Excellent, appears unworn condition.
Made of a stretch soft cotton. The pants slip on to wear with elastic at the waist. The body suit snaps at the bottom and shows no sign of ever being worn.

During the nineties the Versace label reigned supreme. The house created the supermodel, made sexy a mainstay and did it all within an amazing canvas of baroque and floral inspired prints. Here we have an amazing printed body suit and flirty pleated mini skirt from the Versus Jeans Couture label. The body suit is made of a simple soft stretch cotton and the skirt a variation of that same cotton without the stretch. The body suit is cut with long, skinny sleeves and a high neck, while the mini skirt wraps and zips in place with kicky pleats and is done in a matching print to the body suit. The fabric is meant to stretch and hug your every curve with that skirt giving a little volume so it is very sexy on. The print is fabulous and pure Versace. Flowers swirl in a print of blues, greens, yellows and pinks and then that is mixed with the Versace leopard print. A little gold tone metal Medusa head dangles from the zipper pull for that perfect finish. Insanely good and micro short for maximum leg exposure. For the Versace collector this is heaven!

Even Oscar succumbed tot he eighties and made this little flirty dress with its tiered lace, asymmetrical skirt, that is perfectly eighties, but in the best possible way. It is quite beautiful and flirty and it is definitely a dress to go dancing in. Made of a mix of a light black stretch velvet and a black net with a deep burgundy dot worked through the net. Three layers of net sits over each other on an angled cut. I love how the edges of each layer of net has been finished with dressmakers tape so that you get a rounded fluted ruffle finish that really adds volume! The top is kept simple with tiny straps, perfectly offsetting the volume at the bottom. It is lightweight and an easy to wear piece whose design gives it a high impact factor. Excellent condition.
Fully lined with a black silk, it closes with a back zipper. Hand finishes.

What a find! This beautiful black velvet dress by Givenchy Couture that reminds me of a vintage skating dress with its pretty full skirt and front button closure. And it has an extra special tie in as my client purchased this at the Nan Kempner charity sale held after her passing.
The skirt is full - there are actually several yards of fabric in there - and that fullness is made more apparent by the nipped in waist. The top is more fitted and buttons down the front with a band of flat piping along the row of buttons emphasizing the and adding length. The waist is cinched in and the buckle of the belt is large, acting as a draw of the eye and the shoulders lightly padded to squqre them off, again elements that further emphasize that illusion of a tiny waist. It will completely close right up and will create a high regal neckline if you wish. The velvet fabric used adds a nice texture to the dress and a visual interest without having to add pattern or design. The dress is in excellent condition. Please read below for full description notes
Fully lined in a black silk. It closes with the silk covered buttons and hidden hook & eye down the front and has an inner waist stay. Hidden set zippers on each wrist. The belt presents as good condition but there is some damage near one hole where it has been over tightened. Priced accordingly.

I have had this dress before and it is one of my favorite pieces from Sant 'Angelo so I was thrilled to have it again.My last was an unlabeled version but this one has its proper label and looks as new as the day it was made. It is a wrap dress and in typical Sant 'Angelo style, uses bright primary colors to make a statement. He is known for his prints and color and here he turns the entire dress into one dramatic statement. It wraps around itself and ties at the waist creating a low front and even more plunging back. One half of the bodice is blue, the other purple and a wide panel of red defines the waist. The green skirt anchors it all and is wonderfully full when you twirl. The chiffon crepe used gives it a great drape and really a "dancer" feel. Really exceptional. Excellent, appears unworn condition.
The skirt does not wrap, rather you step into it and then wrap the waist ties to secure in place. The top is unlined and the waist panel and skirt are a double layer of the same exterior fabrics. The long ties are attached.

This is just an amazing piece of art-to-wear. Hand made in Mexico in the late sixties, maybe early seventies, this is the epitome of hippie chic. Looking like it could have been worn by Talitha Getty this is an amazing and easy to wear piece. The design is based on a classic caftan this pairs light cotton with a linen like finish with an explosion of color and movement with those strands of multi-coloured ribbon applied to the front. A rainbow of colors are hand sewn into place with their ends left loose. When you move they move and create the most fabulous effect. Extra wide angel sleeves and a zip front that you can close tot he neck or leave low, are the perfect finishing touches. Presents as excellent condition!
Unlined and zips to close at the front with a painted metal zipper. There is a bit of patina to the fabric through out with some smudges of storage and foxing marks. Because of the brilliance of the ribbons and general "hippie" feel of the piece, these actually make it feel more authentic in a way.
The bust goes to 19" across from seam to seam - if this fits the rest should fit.It is 59" long from neck to hem

I love this colorful and fabulous dress. It is made by Gottex and is that perfect mix of sexy with a laid back bohemian feel. The colors are a gorgeous mix that will work for day to evening and in any setting. I love how the design has a touch of a muted gold that defines all the outer edges of it. It is cut full through the bodice with a plunging to the waist neckline that wraps over itself and then closes with two hidden snaps at the front waist. The waist itself is elastic so super comfortable to wear and if you wanted more shape you can easily move the snaps to cinch it in more, or you could add a belt. The skirt flows to the floor and the wrap design allows a peek of leg when you sit or walk. It is just amazing on. The fabric has the feel of a cotton voile but will wear and travel much better then a true cotton. It has just the slightest touch of sheerness to it and it has the added bonus of being hand washable. This would have originally been intended to wear as a piece for the beach or pool as a coverup, but you can definitely wear it out a dress on its own. Excellent condition
Unlined and wraps to close with large hidden snaps at the front of the waist. Elastic through the waist line. Tagged a small but the wrap fit will allow for a wide variety of sizes. You can easily move the snaps inside the waist so adjust to exactly where you want it. One tiny repair and a smudge to the back lower skirt that you don't see unless it's laid out flat.

This gown is divine and has been made to couture standards. I love the instant impact of the custom silk fabric with its beautiful poops of blue in a cream silk backdrop. I feel that Halley designs always start with the fabric and this fabric is amazing. It is a rich, luxurious cream silk with a bold floral design running over its surface. The bodice has a high neck giving it a more formal, regal feel. Each wrist is finished with hand cut floral appliques that ring each wrist. Each of the appliques are set with a cluster of glass crystals giving the effect of wearing a pretty jewel on each hand. The skirt is tremendous with a great volume of fabric but without adding extra width to the wearer - you could also wear something under the skirt if you wanted to create a fuller ballgown effect. Halley started at Charles James who said of the young designer that he "was a genius at draping". By the time he opened his own atelier in 1966 he was in full form and was a master cutter as well. His work is on par with couture and each piece is hand finished and has all the lovely high end details one looks for in proper couture. He is without doubt one of my favorites and I treasure each piece I can acquire. Excellent, museum quality condition

Very sweet little maxi dress with that reference back to the Victorian era that Gina Fratini so loved and often took inspirations from. The fabric is an easy to wear and travel with polyester in a pretty grey that has a blue under tone to it. A color that will work well on most skin tones and serves as a fabulous neutral if you wish to add some pops of color when styling. The bodice is scooped and the waist set high. From there the skirt cascades to the floor in a swoop of fabric. I love the little fabric bows on each sleeve and the sleeves themselves are incredible! Each is a huge puff sleeve that ends at the elbow and gives the pieces a great silhouette. Excellent condition

I recently sold a two piece set by George Halley with the same treatment to the silk and from the same source that all the other Halley's I have in the shop were from. I am quite sure that this is also a Halley and my client pruchased it as such. It is an amazing gown. The silk has heavily applied glitter detailed that makes the curving "flame like" design you see here. The glitter used is fused directly to the silk and because they used different hues of glitter you get an amazing look over all. It is cut loose and easy and simply wraps and hooks into place. The skirt portion that wraps over the other has a pretty extra panel of silk that creates a great drape down the front. Best, it has that incredible hand beaded belt that picks up the flame design. Halley started at Charles James who said of the young designer that he "was a genius at draping". By the time he opened his own atelier in 1966 he was in full form and was a master cutter as well. His work is on par with couture and each piece is hand finished and has all the lovely high end details one looks for in proper couture.

We are, of course, Pucci fans around here and this one is a beauty! Done in one of his earlier prints that combines florals with geometrics, it is an amazing mix of color and design. The print is screened onto a light silk jersey that feels delicious once on. It has a simple silhouette and just slips on with a wide cut neckline. The bodice skims over the bust and the print highlights the shoulders and arms a clever way to draw the eye up to the wearers face. The dress falls in a sleek and simple cut skirt leaving the waist unfitted (though you could certainly cinch with a belt). This is a classic Pucci silhouette that is instantly recognizable and very sexy despite it not being super form fitting since the fabric drapes so wonderfully. Very easy to wear cut and super chic. The entire dress is light and comfortable when on and the silk is very good quality. Excellent condition.

This dress is so much better in person and on a real body I wish you could see it in real life! It is made of a fluid scarf weight silk through the body with an overlay of silk chiffon on the bodice and a panel of silk chiffon that runs down the front The dress wraps into place and has an interesting snap and loop design at the front that the ends of the silk chiffon overlay loop through and under to create that pretty bow detail at the front. The skirt has a faux wrap effect that is partially hidden under that draping of silk down the front. However when you move or sit you will get miles of leg showing - so sexy! The top hooks behind the neck and the back is left bare! It has a very Grecian Goddess meets studio 54 feel that I love. You cannot help but feel amazing in this dress. Excellent condition!
Fully lined in a high quality silk in a matching color. Hooks to close behind the neck and has a painted zipper at the low back. Inner waist stay that hooks to close and light boning down the sides of the bust. Hand finished throughout with excellent construction.

We are, of course, Pucci fans around here and this one is a beauty! Done in one of his signature prints, it is an amazing mix of colors combining corals and taupes. The print is screened onto a light silk jersey, also one of his signatures. It closes all the way down the front with a row of matching fabric covered buttons down the front with an easy to wear shift silhouette. The bodice skims over the bust and the all the front edges are highlighted with a bordered accents that pick up the inner design that covers the dress. This turns into a sleek and simple pencil cut skirt leaving the waist unfitted (though you could certainly cinch with a belt). This is a classic Pucci silhouette that is instantly recognizable and very sexy despite it not being super form fitting as you can choose to leave a button or two open at the neck or on the skirt. Very easy to wear cut and super chic. The entire dress is light and comfortable when on and the silk is very good quality. Excellent condition.

Gigli loved the idea of matching your bag to your dress and it was a bit of a signature for him to do so. Here we have a great little set that still has its original matching clutch. Both pieces are made of a pretty blue crushed velvet that has an almost tie dye effect running through the fabric. To this a series of plastic iridescent discs are attached. Each disk has been heat treated to partially fold and twist it and this just adds to the textures of the two pieces - this would have been cutting edge in the late 1990s. The dress is cut long and slim with pretty little cap sleeves and a detailing over the neck to give it his signature neckline treatment. The clutch is a simple zipped clutch with a little silver chain that you can wear around the wrist or tuck in for a more traditional clutch feel. This feels so nineties that it feels fresh for now with the current 90s revival. Excellent, unworn condition
Unlined and closes with a back zipper. The clutch also zips to close. Tagged a 42 but please check actual listed measurements. Slight wear to the covering of the piping on the side of the clutch. Original tags attached

This amazing dress has been completely covered in sequins by hand - a feat when you consider that the entire surface is densely packed with teeny tiny sequins that literally cover over square inch of the knit base. Harry Algo pieces are extremely well tailored and the line was sold at high end shops like the Elizabeth Arden couture salon in NYC. This is a stunning dress whose flame design is hard to pass by. Done in hues of pink the cut is a simple sheath gown that follows the body of the girl wearing it and clings to her curves but skims over the waist area. The neck is high and it is amazingly comfortable to wear due to the knit base. The sequins catch the light and the drama of the design is a showstopper. It is fantastically made and a real find! I love it. Excellent condition
Fully lined in a matching coral silky rayon and closes with a hand set, fine painted metal zipper. The sequin are densely spaced and are all hand applied - this can be seen clearly from the back - super size the label photo to see. I see no bare areas of missing sequins.

What an amazing Bessi caftan feeling maxi dress! Great Bessi pieces are right up there with Pucci and Leonard and this particular dress is just fabulous! A soft combination of pink and pastels are mixed with a romantic floral design. The print is custom screened onto a fine silk jersey that holds the colors beautifully. The colors used are as crisp and true now as when this was first made! The cut is beautiful with the upper shoulders and sleeves kept slim and flattering, and then the dress flows caftan like to the floor. The silk jersey is very light and this allows it to drape beautifully despite that there is yards of fabric used through the body. I love the V neck and contrasting border at each cuff. This same contrasting border is used twice around the hem for added drama and detailing. These are the perfect travel dress and look wonderful with flats for day or will work as a dressy piece with hells for evenings! Excellent, appears unworn condition

Fantastic sixties caftan with a luxe twist! The caftan has an inner dress that is basically a tube running from the shoulders down. Super comfortable to wear. Over this a blue and gold thread overlay sits that flows and moves wonderfully. The top layer is a deep blue organza with gold colored threading running through in a fabulous dot design. Around the edges are wide bands of gold thread. It narrows slightly as it nears the ankles which helps to still give the idea of shape and silhouette. I love the ease of wearing a caftan at night and this one with its combination of blue and gold works wonderfully for just about any occasion. You can pair this with flats or heels and it would work either way. Excellent condition
Fully lined in a deep blue silky rayon and closes with a back painted metal zipper. Due to the caftan cut this dress will fit just about any size not about lining

This is a fantastic and romantic gown by Alfred Bosand who was really one of the great American designers whose clothes where made to couture levels with lots of hand finishes and detailing to them. This deep navy gown is made from a beautiful silk net that has a dot applique running through it. I love how he has used the layering of the fabrics, or lack of layering, to create different textures and weights so even through the gown is one solid color you really get the sense of three different weights and textures. The high necked bodice has a layer under the front to suggest a corset while the back is left to be only covered with one layer of the dotted tulle. The sleeves are also left so your skin peeks through. The skirt cascades from the waist to the floor in a delicious sweep of fabrics. An extra layer of tulle is under the top layer and the inner skirt is a sensual feeling silk. The skirt is not too full nor too slim. He then creates a dramatic thick ruffle of tulle around the neck and fully down the front, picking it up again at each sleeve. It is the perfect feminine finish. A really lovely gown and very beautiful! Excellent condition.
Fully lined in a matching deep blue silky rayon and closes with a hidden set zipper under the ruffles at the front. A small zipper sits at each cuff as well.

Caftans are always an amazing vintage staple but to find one by Lanvin is a treat. It is a true caftan with minimal seaming that has one central seam down the front and back and across the top of each shoulder. It is shockingly sexy despite its full cut. The front has a round keyhole and tie and the draping of the jersey suggests the body underneath despite its wide and full cut. The sides drape and cocoon down beautifully once one and there is a small opening on each side for your hand to slip through. The color is a true black with a fabulous white bamboo print screened onto it from top to bottom. The jersey used is washable and drapes and moves beautifully. Very easy to wear and pack as well. Excellent condition

This cute and sexy little number is one of the classic Ossie Clark dresses and has been done here in a fabulous red moss crepe. This version has that classic button front that is pure Ossie with it big notched collar and front button plunge. The buttons are covered in the same fabric as the dress with matching fabric loops and the way they are set allows for a peek of skin right to the waist. The skirt is cut on the bias and flows over the hips in a sexy sweep of red fabric. Girls bought these long and then chopped them off to where they wanted them to fall. This one is not perfect so please read the notes below carefully, however, it presents beautifully and is listed at an amazing price for a classic and sexy Ossie Clark! Presents as excellent condiiton
Unlined and closes down the front with the fabric covered buttons as shown. Elastic in each cuff. There is a slight darkening to the fabric near the front hem (it would not photo) and a tiny pinhole near one seam on the front. Presents well when on and priced with these small flaws in mind. Tagged a vintage Ossie Clark size 10UK - please check actual measurements.

How absolutely gorgeous is this dress? I love the richness of the jewel tones mixed with the gold threading and gold braid detailing at the neckline It is made of a light weight lame silk and has a beautiful print from head to toe - this, combined with the gold thread that is worked solidly through the fabric really creates a nice, rich hippie chic, exotic feel. The gold thread in woven through the fabric with a secondary paisley print to parts creating denser areas of gold that really works against the bright pops of color and floral design underneath. I love the gold braid detail. The skirt is full but not overly and swoops to the ground in a column of gold tinted silk. It is a beautiful, dramatic piece whose simple lines offset the drama of the fabric perfectly. Excellent condition.
Fully lined in a light cafe au lait silk and closes with a back painted metal zipper.

This stunning little mini dress is from the 2010 Givenchy collection and still has its original $2430 tag attached. It has never been worn so is in brand new, off the rack condition. It slips on to wear and has an inner dress that has ruching up each side so it acts like a bias cut and fits and drapes into place. Over this are fabulous draped panels that you can adjust where they sit and how to expose more or less of the skirt portion underneath. The skirt underneath is sharply pleated so has a sort of naughty cheerleader feel as it peaks out. The way it is cut also allows you to make it micro short or a true mine. The signature and unusual cut collar finishes it perfectly. Excellent, unworn and new with tags condition.
Unlined and closes with a back hidden set zipper. Flexible boning runs down each side. You can adjust it to be longer or shorter. Tagged a Medium

This highly structured, almost sculptural Mollie Parnis dress is absolutely beautiful! It is cut to follow and skim over the bodice with beautiful high neck and slim sleeves. I especially love how the striping in the fabric carried over and onto the sleeves showing that special attention was paid for this to happen and fabric not spared to create this effect and attention to detail. The skirt is quite full and lovely and the choice of fabric allows it to keep its shape. The fairly simple cut is completely off-set by the spectacular fabric. It is a rich metallic silk brocade with both a geometric design and striped pattern across its surface. Each portion of the design has a slight puff appearance that really allows the fabric to catch the light wonderfully but not be overly metallic in feel. The colors are soft and feminine and the subtle underlay of gold thread give it a bit of extra pop. Hidden pockets along the inset seam on each side of the skirt are the perfect finish! A stunning piece. Excellent condition.
Fully lined in a pale pink silk crepe and the exterior fabric is also backed in a pale pink silk organza. Closes with a painted metal zipper. Hidden pockets along the front seams.
