• This is a rare two piece jacket and skirt set from the Fall 1999 collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of John Galliano.
• We have included several runway shots that we found that show various pieces made of the same fabrication and with similar silhouettes.
• Both pieces are ultra soft to touch. The angora/mohair and wool mix that both pieces are made of would have been specially created for the collection in order to get the pattern to lay so precisely. The fabric would have had to have been pre-planned out prior to making the final design.
• The jacket is phenomenal. It has soft shoulders and is meant to feel at touch more oversized through the upper bodice. The waist is cinched in with a single oversized hand carved button that sits at the front. From there  then it curves over the hips under that. This cut is what gives you that fantastic exaggerated hourglass feel that the suit has.
• The shawl collar is very wide and covers almost the upper bodice. It is finished with a bolder print and feels like a statement piece in itself. The body of the jacket has an angled black-and-white chevron print and I love how he has placed this to emphasize the shape even more.
• The sleeves are extra long and they are meant to bunch up slightly on the arm. They are finished with a wide band of the same design that details the collar.
• The skirt has a simple black piping at the waist and then it is cut in a long slim pencil shape. The upper portion of the skirt is done in that chevron pattern and then the lower part of the skirt picks up that amazing design that was used on the collar and ends of each sleeve.
• The jacket is lined in a black silk and buttons at the front to close as described above. The skirt is unlined and closes at the back with a zipper and hooks at the waist.
  
• Both pieces are tagged an early Galliano large.
• It appears to have never been worn.
• Excellent condition and so so very rare.

• This is an amazing example of his work from Fall 2006 and it is gorgeous. It is very similar to a dress that I had in the ship recently but this one is more elaborate and much longer.
• The dress was made under the creative direction of John Galliano.
• This version was made for the shops and like all of the more elaborate bead work pieces he did would have only been released in limited quantities.
• This is a really striking dress that is also very easy to wear because of its simple and bias cut. 
• The dress is made from three layers that are attached at the top of the shoulder and then float over each other from there. The inside layer is a black silk chiffon and then there is a layer of black silk chiffon that has a texture to it over that. The very top layer is that same textured silk chiffon.
• The dress has a very loose and easy cut through the body.
• The bodice has a beautiful draping neckline at the front and it does the same at the back. One shoulder is wider and a panel draped down from it to form the neck line. The other shoulder is a combination of silk chiffon with a raw lace edging. On that side, there is a tide bow at the top of the shoulder.
• The bodice on the side with the wider strap has pinned detailing that runs vertically down the dress, and the side with the more narrow strap is swept up to one side where there's a large flat bow and a bit of a ruffle created. That ruffle continues all the way to the ham so it appears that the dress has been wrapped around you and the bow is holding it all in place.
• Scattered vertically over the dress are a beautiful design that combines tiny seed beads and silver sequins topped by a tiny bead. These are all set by hand and you can see that on the back. They detail the neckline and then run in little cluster set vertically down the length of the dress.
• Many of the edges have a raw finish, which adds a delicate added texture to the dress that is very pretty.
• This side that has the ruffle feel going all the way to the ham has a split on all three layers so you get a flash of skin and it adds to the beautiful movement. The dress has. The back skirting is cut longer than the front so you get this fantastic sweeping field behind you as well. 
  
• Because this dress is all cut on the bias and is so long and easy through the body it really needs a body inside of it to bring it to life. As good as it looks in the photos here it is phenomenal in person and on the body.
• The inner silk chiffon and middle tulle layer act as the lining underneath the top layer. The innermost layer has no closures. The middle layer closes with its own hidden set zipper, and the very top layer closes with one of his signature tightly spaced rows of silk covered buttons.
• The bias cut allows for some range and movement, so I put the comfortable range in lane flat below
• Tagged a FR40, GB12, US6. 
• Excellent condition 

Bust: 15-19" flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: 14-17.5" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: to 22" flat across from side seam to side seam
Total Length: approx 61" from top of shoulder to front hem and the back extends another 12" past that. Because of the bias cut, it may come up slightly once on.

• The dress is the twin of the dress that was presented in the Spring 2009 Lookbook for the Galliano label.
• Made under the creative direction of John Galliano.
• It is interesting to note the influence of his Cruise 2008 show for Dior in the style of the dress. It is very similar to the pale green dress shown for Look 58 in that show combined with a dash of the pale yellow dress shown for Look 57.
• The dress is made from a deep yellow silk chiffon that has a slight texture running through it.
• The bodice is gathered up on an angle that attaches into a wide chiffon strap. That strap wraps around the neck to one side and then attaches in at the back. A heavily detailed strap extends out from underneath that to the other side of the neck and then extends down the back to attach.
• The more detailed strap is covered with prong set rhinestones of various shapes and sizes along with muted silver beads in various sizes. It adds a really pretty detail to the dress.
• The waist is defined with a band in the same silk and then the skirt flows to the floor from there. There is a silk lining underneath the top chiffon and it has a very pretty movement when you move.
• Inside the dress has a full built-in white strapless corset that is cupped and lightly boned. The inner corset closes with a series of hooks at the side and then the dress closes over that with one of his signature row of tightly spaced silk covered buttons.
• There is no size tag present so please go by the measurements listed below.
• Excellent condition and appears to have never been worn.

• Fall 2007 dress by John Galliano
• Made of a combination of an ivory silk chiffon that is covered in an ivory net lace
• The dress has a strong nod to the 1920s. It is generously cut through the waist and has a scooped neckline.
• Silk chiffon has been formed into little rosettes on either side of the buttons that run down the side of the dress. Panels of chiffon wrap around the waist from the flowers to add a bit of detail and shape.
• There is a long panel of silk that hangs from one of the rosettes at the front. You can allow it to just trail down the front or hook it over one of the rosettes at the back to create a pretty draping down the full side of the skirt.
• The dress is very light in weight. The silk chiffon underlay acts as the lining.
• It closes with the series of silk covered buttons down the side
• Tagged a Galliano FR38, GB10, US6

• This is a signature bias cut dress from the Spring 2002 collection by John Galliano
• Made under the creative direction of John Galliano
• There are no closures on the dress. It is completely cut bias and you just slip it over the head to wear and it just falls into place skimming over the body from head to toe.
• The cut of the dress has a strong nod to Couture pieces of the 1930s and 1940s decades that he continuously referenced in his collections.
• The fabric has a silk like finish and is a deep black. Various Galliano logos have been woven directly into the fabric in a different finish thread so as you move these catch the light. The effect is fantastic once it is on the body.
• The fabric obviously would have been custom designed by Galliano and made specifically for this dress
• It scoops down into a V at the front and the back with a band highlighting the entire neckline. It skims over the waist and hips from there and flares out at the lower hem. 
  
• The back is cut longer than the front so you get this fantastic sweeping feel behind you. It is in its original uncut length.
• A high slit runs up one side for a flash of leg when you walk.
• Unlined and slips on to wear with no closures.
  
• The measurements have a lot of range because of the bias cut and no closure so I have given the comfortable range for all below when laying out flat. There is probably a little extra room beyond my measurements, but I do not like to over pull when measuring.
• Tagged a FR42, GB14, US8
• Excellent condition and it appears to have been worn very little if at all.

Bust: 16–19" flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: 14–17" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: 18–21 " flat across from side seam to side seam

• A fabulous dress from the late 1990s
• Made under the creative direction of Gianni Versace
• The dress is very sexy with its cut out and made of a stretch fabric that hugs and shapes the body.
• The colour is a bright chartreuse that is just exceptional.
• There is light padding in each shoulder, and this holds the dress and gives it a tapered field to the waist.
• It skims over the body and then is gathered in a long, one side all the way around. The other side has been left open and is meant to drape down on the top of one hip. This leaves a bear exposed cut out on that side that wraps around to the back.
• The fabric has been gathered under the hip on that side, and then the skirt falls from narrowing down as it reaches the ham.
• There is a high slit on one side that goes right to the bottom of the gathering on the hip and there is a little quirky gathering on the opposite side to that sitting several inches above the hem.
• All of these gatherings and cut out give it a really sculptural feel around the body.
• It's fully lined in a more Matt version of the same stretch material. The fabric does have stretch so the measurement below or the comfortable range when the dress is laying flat. It has no closures and slips on to wear.
• Tagged a vintage Versace 38
• Excellent condition

• The twin of the dress that was worn on the runway for the Fall 1995 Karl Lagerfeld show.
• He launched his self-named label in 1984 and by the 1990s it was firmly established. Pieces from his personal label were far edgier then the work he did for Chanel. It was a label where he explored a more avant garde feel with his designs and pushed the envelope more. 
• The dress that is made out of a mix of a light weight black net that is backed in more layers of netting and silk chiffon.
• Onto that is a pattern made from black velvet fused onto the netting. The velvet is set to highlight the cut and lines of the dress.
• It has a slightly more bare and fitted feel through the upper bodice and then flares and widens out very dramatically to the hem.
• The fabric is light in weight but the layering underneath the top layer of netting gives it enough weight and structure to hold the shape.
• The bust drops into a V and the velvet details on the bodice are set on angles to work into a centre vertical velvet line. This same striping runs horizontally all the way around the hem. The line that runs down the centre of the bodice extends all the way to the hem and then more vertical lines go all the way around the skirt to break up it up into panels.
• The waist comes in a touch, but has a more generous feel to it, and the skirt swings in a a wide A-line.
• At the back, the dress completely opens with a series of silk covered buttons that run from neck to just above the hem.
• The bodice is lined in another layer of the same netting and the skirt has three more layers of netting under the top layer and an inner nude silk chiffon layer under those. It closes at the back with the series of buttons that you see. 
• Excellent condition.

• Loris Azzaro launched his label in 1967 and quickly defined his trademark looks by using ornate beading, sequins, daring cut-outs and avant garde ways of defining the body.
• Some of the most beautiful women in the world wore his clothing including Marisa Berenson, Raquel Welch, Jane Birkin, Sophia Loren, Brigitte Bardot and Tina Turner.
  
• The dress is made out of a black jersey through the body, which allows it some give, and then the remarkable sleeves are made out of a fine black chiffon.
• The lightness of the fabric used for the sleeves gives them incredible movement once this is on the body.
• The neckline sits wide across the neck and then it is edged in a row of overlapping black sequins.
• It skims over the body from there, past the bust, waist and hips to open out slightly as it nears the hem.
• Onto the front of the dress are five curving seams that are highlighted with a band of sequins. They almost give the impression of slashes across the front of the dress. The final sequin band curves down to meet the top of a slit that allows for some bare leg to show when you walk.
• The sleeves fall over the shoulders and are completely open along their insides. Once on the body these cascade all the way down to the hem of the dress and create the most incredible moment. The chiffon that they are made of keeps them ultralight so as you move they catch the slightest bit of air to swirl and billow around you.
• It is an incredibly easy dress to wear and incredibly glamorous once on the body.
• Unlined and slips on to to wear with a hidden set side zipper. It appears to have been worn very little if at all. The fabric does have some stretch and the measurements below are the comfortable range when laying flat
• Excellent condition.

Bust: 16.5-19" flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: 14.5-17" flat across from side seam to side seam

• An inner waste state hooks to close. There's no there is no size tag present so please go by the measurements listed below.An absolutely incredible piece from the 1990s. 
  
• Made under the creative direction of Oscar de la Renta 
  
• This might be one of my favourite dresses I have had in the shop. The photos do not do it full justice and it is only when you see it in person that you realize just how beautiful it is.
• It is made out of a fine black lace. The lace completely covers the dress and I would be astounded to know how many yards of lace went into making this dress.
• The inner bodice is strapless and meant to be fitted. It is lined in a fine tissue silk and boned for support. An outer layer of lace covers the bodice and forms tiny cap sleeves. I love how this lets the upper shoulders and shoulders feel unlined so you get a peak of skin through it.
• The inner back scoops down with that a single layer of lace exterior covering you. It is very elegant but still feels very sexy.
• The waist nips in and then the dress glides over the hips to falls to the floor.
• Inside there are three layers of silk organza. Two black layers directly under the lace and then nude innermost layer. The two innermost layers both have wide bands of stiffening around the hem and the layer that sits directly under the lace has three stacked stiffened bands going up the skirt. This is what helps to hold the incredible shape and volume that you see.
• The skirt is extremely full and has so many yards of lace in its construction. The volume that you see was all created by the sheer amount of fabric, the cut and the seven lace tiers that run over the entire lower portion of the skirt.
• I love the tiers of lace that cover the lower part of the skirt. Each is set to slightly overlap the next one down. No expense was spared on the lace in the dress. Even the area between the tiers are finished with lace despite that fact that you can’t see them. Each tier's lace is set to that the edges are scalloped to follow the pattern and shape of the designs in the lace. I took a photo where I hold the skirt up on one side and this will give you an idea of the amount of yardage the skirt has. It is incredible.
• The inner construction of this dress is as good as the exterior and it is made close to a demi-couture level.
  
• It closes with a back zipper where the inner corset starts. The neck hooks to close and there is a keyhole between. Boned through the bodice. An inner waist state hooks to close.
• There is no there is no size tag present so please go by the measurements listed below.
• Excellent condition
