An amazing Geoffrey Beene Tuxedo feeling shirt front dress with a simple but fabulous shift type cut. Constructed from a chocolate colored silk sating with fabulous off white front accents that are also on the cuffs. I adore the flat silver grey piping used to highlight the design.

Excellent condition

Unlined and closes with the buttons down the front. Each cuff buttons to close

Love this sexy little knit dress by Missoni. It is a sleek sheath of fluid, fine knit that is topped by a triangle style top and criss cross straps at the back. The back is left almost completely bare and it weighs ounces! The knit has metallic thread woven through it so the dress has a subtle glimmer. It skims and clings over the body but in a forgiving way, helped by the angled print that draws the eye in and the amazing cut! Excellent condition

Lined in the signature nude lingerie weight nylon that Missoni lines their garments in. Note that the tag was lost but it is guaranteed to be Missoni. Slips on to wear

Fabulous little outfit by Ungaro with a slight contrast between the top and skirt created by fabric and patter. Both have that little abstract dot pattern bu the top has additional shapes and the design is highlighted by gold paint in the outlines. The fabric play against each other with the top a fluid silk satin that is very light weight and sensual feeling and the skirt a more crepe like silk. Very well amde and lovely one! Excellent condition

The top is unlined and closes at the front with buttons. Each cuff buttons to close. The skirt is fully lined in a black silky rayon and closes with a zipper and button on the waistband

Easy to wear, fabulous, 1960s Oscar De La Renta Boutique dress in a poly nylon. That means it twill ravel like a dream and you can throw it on after a day at the beach or when you are just out for cocktails - it won't wrinkle and feels great on - nice and light and airy! The colors are just beautiful - a palette of a sunny yellow mixed with pops of reds, greens and pinks. I love the floral design that covers the entire dress should to hem. It also has a dash of the exotic with its offset border edged in a floral motif. That same detailing is used on each cuff and the tie belt. The sleeves each cuff in at the wrist so a slight billowing effect is created. Really fantastic piece and very dramatic! Excellent, appears unworn condition.

Unlined and closes with a back painted metal zipper and hook & eye at the back of the neck. Each cuff has hidden fabric covered snaps to close. The belt is original to the dress and lightly backed with no buckle - it ties as shown.

A killer wiggle dress by Suzy Perette! The entire shape has been created through the careful placement & cut of the vertical seams that come out above and below the waist- all done to create that wonderful hourglass shape. The front has a panel of fabric that crosses over the front. It is secured on the opposite shoulder and creates a bold geometric shape! I love that even though this treatment is not meant to actually unbutton the buttonholes are still finished off properly. The fabric is a light felted feeling wool in a deep oxblood. I can't go one enough about this piece - it really is extraordinary and I know I will regret listing it once it goes - the pictures do not come close to doing it justice. Excellent condition.

Fully lined in hand set black cotton. It closes at the back with a painted metal zipper. Each cuff has hidden snaps. Finsihed button holes under the button treatment at the front.

The skirt on this dress is cut so skinny that I could not get it on a mannequin! On a real girl it is walkable because of the way the opening is cut but all my mannequins have set legs that would not accommodate the cut! Just know that it cut to give you maximum curves and basically fit you like a glove! Red silk is gathered up the front and into a high peak strapless bodice, The back laces up corset style and even off the hangar the dress has curves. The back is tiered under the butt and slit high. The bottom is cut into two points that trail down your legs - you could potentially tie these to create a complete bondage look. Utterly in your face sexuality and a rare find! Excellent, appears unworn condition

Fully lined in a black silky rayon and it laces to close as well as has a hidden, offset zipper. Boned through the bodice

This is an extremely well made little graphic shift dress from the sixties that just perfectly sums up that era! Made of a mix of a chocolate brown silk with a silk linen skirt that has bold green and pink blocks. The block pattern is picked up at the neck with a tie in that same fabulous fabric! I love the little details - the single top stitched pocket on the bust and the perfectly finished button holes on each cuff. It is all hand finished and has a good solid very well made feel to it! Really wonderful! Excellent, appears unworn condition

Fully lined in a brown tissue silk and closes with a fine, handset, back painted metal zipper. Each cuff closes with a button and a small hidden snap to keep the cuff set perfectly.

I think this is the best knit dress I have had on the site! It is just that perfect through it on with boots or tights and look instantly chic. Made of a chunky knit that somehow manages not to make the wearer look too bulky and thick. The sleeves are cut wide and each has a huge cuff at its end. I love the top set hip pockets and the way the skirt flares out! The turtleneck is loose and dramatic - everything about this dress is perfection! Coveted earlier label Chloe. Excellent condition

Lovely and simple, this Pierre Balmain dress is perfect for the summer months and will transition into fall with the addition of a jacket or sweater. I love the pretty blue scattering of flowers on the backdrop of printed silk voile - the contrast between the two patterns is wonderful. It has two tiny shoulder straps and then the dress flows to the floor from there, gradually widening as it reaches the hem to create a soft and pretty A-line. It has just a suggestion of waist as it skims over the torso and hips. It's the perfect and easy dress that can be styled up or down and worn day to evening. Very simple, very pretty and very well made. Excellent condition

A great Jean Varon that is actually quite constrained for him! Normally his pieces are head to toe pattern and this one has a beautiful simple A-line cut, to the floor skirt done in a fabric that is one shade off a true white. This is then topped by a scarf weight rayon twill which is printed in a typical sixties/seventies feeling pattern of blues and pinks. Love the scooped neck and skinny sleeves. The dress gets a touch a high drama with a wide patent belt in a deep ink blue that cinches in the waist! Excellent condition!

Fully lined in a white silky rayon. Closes with a back painted metal zipper and each cuff has a small painted metal zipper. The belt is a deep blue patent - it has one hole that has lost its border but is in excellent shape.

How sexy is this dress?! It is just amazing! Classic Biba with its small, triangle halter style cups from which the skirt flows to the floor in a wide A-line. It completely buttons down the front and I love the light weight cotton fabric that has been dyed to look like denim. It is very simple but very wonderful and undeniably special and sexy. Really good Biba pieces are getting harder and harder to find and this one is amazing - it really is one of the best of the best by Biba from this era! Excellent condition!

Unlined and closes at the front with the buttons as shown - note that on a girl smaller then my mannequin the buttons will sit closed better - this barely fit my mannequin. The fabric has a light bit of fading to it which is intentional and a natural part of the aging process - I do not consider it a flaw but a patina that adds to the look of ti! Note that the very last900oikm o button is missing - priced accordingly.

Mila Schon makes extraordinarily well made clothes and this fabulous little black dress is no exception. It is a classic shift shape and is made out of a combination of silk and cotton. I love that you can wear it is as loose and easy shift or you can create shape with the belt. It came from the estate of a wealthy Texan who bought bought bough but did not wear her purchases including this one, so it is in perfect, just off the rack condition. The top stitch detailing on the collar and neck is fabulous. The dress has that chic Hampton's feel that you know always looks perfect and is an easy throw on an go option.

This is a sexy and stunning dress by Giambattista Valli. The dress is classic Valli at his best. It is fitted and the inside is finished like a corset - this holds the almost micro mini firmly in place. The fabric is a heavy silk with an almost neoprene feel finish which allows it to really hold its shape. The skirt is a sharp little A-line that carries right up under the bust. The bodice makes a girl feel wrapped like a perfect little present with a bow set at the front. The inner construction is fabulous. A spectacular Valli and very sexy. Excellent condition

Has a full built in corset that is cupped and boned and closes with hook & eye. Fully lined in silk that is all hand set. It closes with a side hidden set zipper. It has some stretch so it really holds the wearer once on.

This is a fantastic suit from Geoffrey Beene and shows his love of sharp geometric shapes and love of adding pops of color onto a black base. The skirt is fitted and lean and the jacket has a strong silhouette that skims the torso and goes down and over the hip. The neck is high and all the closures are hidden so that you get this fantastic unbroken line. Onto the jacket are two abstract triangles of color that are top stitched - a green on the front and a burgundy one on the back. Each of these has a ribbon tie extending from a point and you wrap and tie these around to create some shape! Very graphic and very chic! Excellent, appears unworn condition.

Both pieces are fully lined in silk and beautifully finished. The skirt closes with a hidden set zipper and the jacket closes with hidden buttons at the front.

Sexy nylon gown by the great John Kloss who was an Ossie Clark contemporary and did mainly lingerie pieces with a few draped goddess jersey gowns thrown in for good measure. I love his work. He deliberately chose good weight and quality nylons that held the color well and would drape exactly as he wished. This white goddess feel gown is simply cut and is done in a pristine white nylon. It has a drop dead sexy front plunge and Grecian feel elastic gathers under the bust and at the waist. The skirt has yards and yards of fabric and cascades out from there. It is semi sheer but could be worn out as a dress with nude undergarments or clever styling. Truly a beauty and in fantastic condition!

Wonderful full length nylon jersey dress in a a off-white. The skirt flows to the ground in a cascade of fabric- there are yards of fabric in that skirt! The halter top is quite stunning with a low plunging front and halter style top that goes up and around the neck. It closes at the nape of the neck and then the back is left basically bare. The waist has a pretty illusion cut out detailing made of embroidered applique and highlighted with rhinestones. Perlberg made these pieces to be danced in and this one would look amazing twirling across the dance floor! Very Grecian goddess and very sexy. Excellent condition

Backed in a second layer of the same poly  nylon jersey as the exterior. Closes with hook and & eye at the back of the neck and a low painted metal zipper.

This dress is pretty sexy! It is made out of a simple poly jersey and the skirt is cut on a wide A-line. That skirt comes right up and over the torso where it is topped by a sequin encrusted bra/halter top! The sequins are a deep charcoal pewter hue. I simple tie of jersey loops through the front key hole and ties around the neck, The back is left basically bare except for the tie of fabric that keeps the top in place! Very Studio 54 and very sexy! Excellent condition!

A stunning, hand painted gown from Zandra Rhodes that was most likely a custom order and it is not a far stretch of the imagination to think that it could have been used as a wedding gown even! It has a delicious Medieval feel to it with its cut out shoulders and high set bodice. Gold silk organza is pleated in the a Fortuny style and used to create the sleeves and again though the body of the dress. Onto this is a pink silk chiffon, hand painted with little clusters of gold stars - panels swirl down each side of the hip and have her signature cut out edging. The bodice has a gold lace overlay onto which faux pearls are hand applied. A swath of pink silk rings the collar and is secured by large pink toned pearls, it is just extraordinary and very special! Excellent, appears unworn condition!

Killer Missoni knit gown in their signature multi-hued print! Cut like a Grecian Goddess gown it has a deep front and back plunge. Sleeveless and with a bit of gathering at the bust, the bodice flows into a nipped in waist and then the skirt cascades to the floor.

A very pretty floral print dress by Diane Freis made of a poly georgette, her preferred fabric of choice. Freis dresses tend to be the same sort of gypsy style - a loose bodice and full sleeves with a tie at the neck. The waist is a wide elastic gathered band so the fit is crazy easy and comfortable. The skirt is full from there and has lots of fabric. I loved this one in particular for its pretty inset panel skirt - a detail I have not seen on one of her dresses before. It's a great throw on and go summer dress that will work into fall as well. Very pretty and in excellent, appears unworn condition.

Fabulous Geoffrey Beene Set that is a testament ot what can be achieved with the choice of fabric! It looks like it should be heavy but the set is shockingly light in weight. The chenille used in a very fine and light - almost more like a silk velvet but with the texture of chenille. The silk taffeta used with it is also very fine grade and it has been hand painted with gold, has voided squares of applied velvet and a crumpled texture deliberately worked into it. It is quite beautiful! The dress is a simple tank suspended by silk ribbon piping. The jacket is over sized as was typical at this time period with a loose an easy cut. The chenille lines the jacket and it is so well done that if not for the inner labels you could flip it inside out and wear it either way! Really remarkable in person! Excellent, appears unworn condition.

A stunning late 1970s Valentino dress made of his signature linen fabric that has been custom screened with huge blooms! Every detail about this dress is fabulous! The strapless bodice is very fitted and the inner bodice has been pin-tucked all the way around. Onto this is that floral fabric and is covers the back and then ties at the front making a very pretty detail! The skirt has this same spirit of layering - the inner skirt is the solid black linen over which a shorter skirt of that fabulous floral linen is placed.

I love the deep hued green that the lace on this lovely set ha sheen dyed to. It's such an unusual choice of color for lace and feels shockingly modern. It is actually a dress that has a nude silk bodice underneath and a tunic that is semi- see through that slips over that. It is really wonderfully constructed too! The inner dress has a stiffened inner waist band that makes it feel very couture when on. The skirt is cut slim and lean. The tunic is a simple lace shell that slips over the head and settles perfectly in place. Very chic and very beautiful in person! Excellent, appears unworn condition

The inner dress has a double layer of silk through the bodice and the skirt is lined in black silk organza. It closes with a back zipper and the inner stay closes with hook and eye. The tunic has snaps along one shoulder.

The edges of the collar and the hem of the skirt are done in a pretty round scallop. I just adore this detail - it just is that little extra touch that you find in vintage tat you don't find anymore! The top is cut loose and boxy with an interesting double row of buttons down the front. The skirt is cut to skim the hips and cinch in at the waist. It comes with its original long silk tie sash that you can style at the waist or the neck. The colors are so pretty on person - if you like the photos you will love it in person! Excellent condition and very well made.

The fabric is so soft - it is made of a soft, light flannel cotton that is like a baby Tee!  The cut has a definite prairie feel to it with its tiny floral pattern and little ruffle detailing on the shoulders. It has a pretty dip in the front and has an attached loop at the front just under that dip for the tie that you can wrap to add some definition. I love that you can wear it that way or very loose and smock style! A pretty ruffled finish runs around the hem! Very pretty. Excellent condition.

This is a fabulous 1970s Leonard done in a beautiful floral black and white graphic. I love the wide A-line cut skirt that flows to the ground and is actually quite wide as it nears the floor despite the fact that it skims over the hips below the waistline. The silk chiffon overlay gives it a beautiful airy feel too! The waist has a bit of extra definition with the contrasting banding that is also used on each cuff. The sleeves are billowing poufs of chiffon and are fabulous! The front plunges and has an attached low tie detail. The contrast between the pattern on the jersey underlay and the chiffon parts is just amazing! Excellent overall condition with two small repairs - please read details below.

Unlined and closes with a hand set, back painted metal zipper. Each sleeve closes with a fabric covered buttons. The fabric of the body is all a poly jersey and has stretch. The sleeves and skirt overlay are silk chiffon. There is a repair under each arm to the silk near the seam where it weakened and had to be fixed. It is visible when laid out but when on you won't see it since there is so much volume. There is the slightest discoloration here as well but again when on its fine. Its too fabulous not to list and I have priced it accordingly. Present perfectly when on.

What a fabulous checked Jean Varon dress! Made of a beautiful cotton fabric it is easy to wear and has wonderful lines. The bodice is cut to fit to the body and has a deep front and back plunge. The skirt is quite dramatic and cut on an A-line to the floor. The fabric helps it to feel full. I love how he took strips of a smaller checked fabric and used them as flat piping to highlight the cut of the bodice.  It manages to be sexy and yet feel a little bit innocent at the same time! Excellent condition!

Super rare Bill Blass Knitwear label that is a full length maxi. dress! It is a wonder of mixed ribbing pattern. Made of a fine wool knit whose top is a thicker ribbed knit that turns into the finer knit skirt. The edges are scalloped around the neckline and the cuffs. I love the skinny fit and the long lean look. If you have the right body type for this piece, this is sure to be one of your absolute favorite pieces ever! And those little cut out diamonds around the hip that allow for just a peak of skin? Pure understated sexiness! Excellent condition.

Killer red Holly Harp that is made of a slipper satin, lingerie weighted silk. This means that is has lot so f sensual movement and drape and is amazing to wear! Its all early eighties with rounded, padded shoulders and a loose tunic style cut. The sleeves are long and the neck dips slightly with a rosette finish. Those caped shoulders turn into a V like cape detailing on the back that is secured to the dress but creates this avant garde back effect that is quite dramatic! Really unusual and different!

What a beauty! This deep deep navy blue frock is just a knock out! Made of a silk dyed midnight blue it has a pretty and flattering cut. The bodice is fitted and has a darling little side seaming detail. The skirt has a touch of fullness created by deep, soft pleats set on each side. I love the waist detail - a wide swatch of fabric has been formed to create the suggestion of a huge bow that tucks under the waist band and swoops down the front of the skirt! Extremely well made and a wonderful example of Dior! Excellent condition.

Fully lined in a blue silk organza and closes with a back painted metal zipper. The attached waist band closes with hook & eye at the back. Wonderfully constructed with hand finishes. The label is the Dior white and Black original label - a photo will be added

A stunning little early sixties dress that is a pretty combination of dots and ruffles! The skirt overlaps with a pretty curve and all the edges are finished with a soft fabric ruffle. That same ruffle is picked up on the neckline. I love the chiffon bodice with its pattern of dots worked into the fabric. It is very well made and chic! Excellent condition

This is a classic design from Ossie Clark and this version is interesting in two ways - 1st it is a vivid green color edged in a cherry red - a color mix that is far rarer Second it has the Ossie Clark couture label in it, not the Ossie Clark for Radley - this makes it an early design version that was later copied for the Radley label! I love the subtle sexiness of the suit - the "waved" front allows for a peek of skin to come through if you wish to wear it with nothing underneath. The pants have that amazing notched front to the their wide flared cut so when a girl walks you get a flash of shoe and ankle - a bit of a play on the Victorian era and a classic Ossie way of bringing in an element of the past with a genius twist to make it timeless. The pants are flat fronted and curve and skim over the hip until the flare at the bottom. The jacket is cut skinny and sexy with a bit of a flare at the hip to balance the pant. Classic Ossie at his best and an iconic design! Excellent condition!

Both piece are unlined and edged in a cherry silk satin ribbon piping finish. The top buttons to close. The pants have a back painted metal zipper at the waist with hook & eye on the waist band. The front mini pockets on the jacket are actual functional pockets. A slight touch of press marks to the seams as does happen with this fabric and a slight bit of mild piling to the fabric here and there - again a natural effect of age. Considering the rarity of color and label I do not consider these overt flaws.

This is an absolutely lovely, early 1960s classic box cut suit in an unusual and very flattering combination of a soft teal and tan. It also has its original suede belt for the skirt, hand dyed to match the teal! The skirt is a classic little A-line and the jacket a box cut with just the hint of a shape through the waist. All the buttons are original and it has lots of couture level touches - the button loops are handmade of the same fabric hand finishes inside and the lining is pieces and hand placed. Amazing and in excellent condition

Lined in pale turquoise tissue silk. Closes with buttons at the front and a painted meal zipper on the skirt. The belt is original and stamped Christian Dior. Some of the backing of the belt is going and it has some dust on the suede but overall it presents well from the front. No flaws to the exterior of the suit. There are some discoloration inside the arms but this of course does not show when on.

Insanely cool 1970s jumpsuit has full & draped harem leg bottoms. Every edge of this piece has an elastic edge so you can literally style it as you wish. Push the legs up or down, wear the sleeves higher then shown, make the waist sit high up under the bust or down low on your hips. Event he neckline has elastic so you can wear it on or off the shoulder. Its made of a chiffon so is almost weightless and feels great when worn! If you have been searching for the one of a kind jumpsuit no one else will have - you just found it!

Wonderful, early 1970s skirt and top set from one of my favorite designers - Janice Wainwright. Both pieces are constructed from a lightweight knit jersey. The top has a slightly dolman sleeve and a boat neck cut top that is all skinny arms and tapered through the waist. The fit is fantastic and it drapes beautifully! The skirt has an elastic waist and attached ties so you can style the pieces slouchy, loose and layered or cinched & fitted. I adore the color blocking - a true jet black is paired with a deep burgundy and a chocolate brown. The set is labeled with her earliest label and it is in excellent condition. A wonderfully modern feeling piece that is surprisingly fresh and fashion forward.

Very pretty silk floral cocktail dress by Gigi Young, which was the sister label to the Suzy Perette line. I love the big watercolor washed floral print done in a high quality silk - it is the perfect combination of greens and blues! The shape is classic wiggle and is cut to fit every curve. The bodice drapes and is hand gathered with a wide cumberbund detail at the waist. The skirt is long and lean. Very flattering and very, very pretty! Excellent condition.

Velvet Pucci's are slightly harder to come by but when you do you are always a little floored by them. It seems that the colors are richer and lusher when applied onto the velvet. This one is wonderful with its rich hues of greens and soft purples. It is cut fairly lean through the bodice and sleeves, while the skirt flares out to a long, lean A-line so that the fantastic design can be shown off to its full advantage. It has both the original Emilio Pucci labels and it's Saks Fifth Avenue labels. Instantly recognized as a Pucci, it is classic and iconic. Great condition

Shoulders: 15" from seam to seam
Bust: 17" flat across the back from side seam to side seam

Bodice length: 14" from shoulder to lowest part of wait seam
Skirt length: 40" from lowest part of waist seam to bottom hem

The dress is fully lined and closes with a back painted metal zipper. Note that the zipper has lost its pull but since it is the original zipper and still is completely functional I have left it as is. There are also some small crease marks in the elbow of the sleeves that are worked into the velvet due to the skinny fit. Priced accordingly.

Delicate & feminine and romantic are the first words that come to mind when you see this dress, jacket & scarf set. All three pieces are in a feather light chiffon that has a pretty abstract print screened onto it. The dress has a delicate ruffle around the neckline that is all edged in pretty clear beads. These same beads run down the edge of the jacket and circle each wrist. The shape is simple and easy to wear - a straight dress and the jacket is so light it just flows. The matching scarf piece can be used as a belt, a head scarf or around the neck. All three pieces are in excellent condition

Dress
Bust: 17" from side seam to side seam and continuing to bottom hem
Total length: 36" from shoulder strap to bottom hem

Jacket
Shoulders: approx. 17" from seam to seam
Sleeves: approx. 22" from shoulder seam to longest point
Total length: 36" from shoulder to bottom hem
Scarf: 21" x 59"

The dress is fully lined and closes with a hook and eye above the keyhole at the back. The chiffon jacket and scarf are unlined. Note that the piece at the back of the dress above the key hole seems to have been added to with extra fabric at some point - probably to give more room through here. I like the way it gives that glimpse of skin and have left it as found - price adjusted accordingly.

A gorgeous and dramatic Goldworm print dress that has a fantastic Asian inspired print. A faux criss cross bodice is edged with a contrasting print which is also picked up at the waist banding. The colors on the main part of the dress are soft and there is an underlying print that runs through the back drop. The print applied onto that is bright and bold! I love the way the sleeves widen out to the cuff - again that picks up on that slightly Asian kimono-esque vibe. A really fantastic and easy to wear statement piece. Excellent condition!

Coty award winner, Michaele Vollbracht, designed under his own name for just 6 short years. This makes his designs rare and collectible. He is renowned for his self-designed prints, that he screened onto rich silks. His pieces are a pleasure both to wear and to look at. This is a caftan style maxi dress that has a backdrop of muted taupe's and olives. Onto this, bold strokes of vibrant pink and tangerines are brushed. It is signed within the print on the caftan and the belt. The original long, fabric tie belt lets you cinch in the waist if you wish or wear it loose and easy! Excellent condition.

Fantastic, sexy, absolute killer jumpsuit from the great Vicky Tiel! It is constructed from gathered silk jersey, hand placed so that it drapes perfectly when worn. The construction is perfection as well - it is lightly boned through the bodice so that it stays perfectly in place. I love that panel that drapes out form the mid-waist and through the legs - it gives the whole ensemble an exotic flare harem like feel. It is in mint condition and when paired with a killer current heel - feels wildly modern! Excellent condition

A stunning piece from the hard to find Roger Freres Paris label! It is a soft coral pink whose print is hand screened with a watercolor painting like finish. The semi-sheer cotton voile sits atop an inner lining hand dyed in the same color. There are meticulous seaming and subtle pleat details at the neck and all through the waist where the skirt is attached. It falls to mid-calf and the sleeves have been left unlined so they are lighter in feel and add a pretty romantic touch. The sleeves are cut so that the print can be shown off to full advantage. The scenic print - a stunning scene of vintage Paris - is stunningly beautiful and runs the full circumference of the skirt and sleeves. The original fabric sash is still with the dress. Excellent condition and a beautiful piece

This is a stunning set from the fabulous Emilio Pucci. It is two separate pieces which makes it very versatile since they can be worn together or be mixed and matched with other pieces. The top is a semi-sheep silk chiffon with classic Pucci designs. The cuffs, collars and edges all have contrasting print and there is a bold centerpiece print at the back! The skirt is a heavier weight silk jersey and wraps to close. The matching print runs down both the back and front. You can tuck the top in or leave out. It is fantastically Pucci and the colors are bright and true. Excellent condition.

A drop dead gorgeous Ungaro dress! It is utterly fantastic in every possible way and manages to be dramatic, sexy and classic all at once! It is superbly fitted and almost corseted all through the torso, bust and hips - over which the silk is gathered in perfect little soft drapes. The shoulders are cut high and narrow and the sleeves a bit fuller. I love the high collar and the front cut out detailing. The fabric is wonderful as well. It is 100% silk inside and out. It is very well made - even the lining is attached all the way around the hem. The kicky little three layer pleated hem line gives it a bit of a forties vibe. A really stunning piece! Excellent condition

The dress is fully lined in silk and closes with a back painted metal zipper. The original owner removed the shoulder pads at some point but kept them so they will be sent if you wish to have them - tacking them back into place would give the piece back it's original eighties feel.

This is a lovely and dramatic maxi dress by Paganne. I adore Paganne dresses - the prints and designs are fantastic and the fabrics they used make them super easy to wear and travel with - no wrinkle worries! This one is a fabulous combination of pinks and chocolates and has a striking, stylized Geisha girl print that runs all down the front and the back as well. I love that the base of the dress is where all the brighter pops of color has been used - it draws the eye down and allows you to look longer and leaner with the darker colors through the torso. The top portion of this one is fantastic - it's a modified halter with wide straps and an edging of design that emphasizes the overall design. Excellent condition. Item# DD385
