• This dress is from the Fall 1982 Valentino collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of the original Mr. Valentino.
• This is a very rare and unusual dress from the Valentino boutique label.
• Michelle Harper wore its twin in 2011 and you can see it in the foreground of the photo of an exhibit of his work at the Met Museum. Its twin was shot in black that season as well.
• Valentino launched his ready-to-wear label in 1962 just two years after opening his first couture salon in Rome. In 1970 he expanded and opened a boutique in New York. 
• His ready-to-wear was done to give everyone access to the Valentino experience. He often based the boutique designs from his main couture label and in the early days pieces were remarkably close in quality and the line between the two labels was often blurred. This is a beautiful example of that.
• The dress is made of a beautiful weight silk in the perfect shade of purple mixed with those rainbow coloured bands at the top of the bust and around the inner hem. The silk has just enough weight to hold the shape that you see, but still feels light on the body.
• I love the unusual lines that this dress has and how despite its bold silhouette it is still easy to wear and very flattering.
• The dress is strapless and the neckline is set in a peak at the front with the four coloured stripes set on angles that slant down and then curve around the back. The silk is seamed to fit around you and really emphasize the shape through the bust and waist.
• It curves over the very top of the hips from there and then the skirt falls out outwards in the most dramatic poof under that.
• The skirt is a masterpiece. It is gathered softly into the waist and then it expands outward in that fantastic shape that you see. At the bottom it is brought in and under and there are four more matching bands of coloured silk in those rainbow colours. 
• When this is on and you move you are going to get the most incredible movement of the skirt.
• There is tulle in between the outer layer and the inner silk lining in the skirt that helps to keep the skirt its structure and shape so it does not collapse around you once you are standing still. And it has pockets.
• The dress is fully lined in a light purple silk. Light boning through the bodice and the inner silk portion of the bod closes with a row of hook and eye. The dress zips to close over that. The skirt has a black silk chiffon lining and this closes with its own hook and eye inside at the waist. The rest of the skirt is lined in a black silk organza and there is tulle in between the exterior layer and the organza. I see a tiny bit of change of texture where the silk has been pressed over the inner tulle here and there. It is very minor and just mentioned for accuracy. Hand finishes.

• The twin of this dress walked the runway for Look 39 of the Spring 2004 Oscar de la Renta collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Oscar de la Renta
• In the review of the show Vogue said in part; "It’s virtually impossible not to get swept up in Oscar de la Renta’s confident vision of the luxurious life. The designer played to all of his strengths for spring, showing more of the pretty dresses, chic suits, and slim coats that have made him a touchstone of relaxed, modern elegance....Judging from the cuts and colors of this collection, de la Renta has Palm Beach on his mind." and for the evening pieces it was noted that; "Turning up the volume for evening, de la Renta progressed from a long, cool pour of pink charmeuse, to a giddy yellow satin strapless dress covered in nosegays of silk flowers, to embroidered and embellished showstoppers guaranteed to make it a memorable night—red carpet or not."
• This dress is absolutely dreamy. It is made out of the perfect pale pink silk that has been finished with a combination of black embroidery and black bead work that covers the entire dress. 
• The dress is strapless and the neckline has a soft rounded shape to it. The silk is shaped over the bust to give shape and curves. Inside it there is a full built-in corset that is cupped and shaped for support structure. 
• All of the panels that make up the dress are set vertically and he has use these to create the shape that you see. As it skims over the bust the panel panels narrow to create the shape through the waist. I love that there is no horizontal line to break the eye or the pattern that covers the dress.
• The skirt is spectacular. Here you see the true genius of Oscar. The panels that start at the top of the bus and narrowed into create the shape of the waist now expand into incredibly wide panels all the way around you. Each is over 30" wide by the time it reaches the hem and there are eight of them in total. This gives the skirt incredible volume that shows best when you move.
• Built in underneath that outer skirt is a second layer of the same silk. That layer has a stiffened edging all the way around it's ham and also is finished with a black chiffon ruffle that peaks out from underneath the top skirt as you move.
• The volume and lightness of the silk allows the skirt to move around you beautifully when you walk or move. When this is on and you are walking the effect that this creates is absolutely gorgeous. You can easily see that in the runway reference video.
• The final perfect detail is the extensive black embroidery and beadwork that covers the dress and highlights its shape and curves. I love how it is done in a deliberate pattern that follows the curves of the bodice and narrows in at the waist, giving the illusion of an even tinier waist.
• Dangling jetted beads circle all around the top edge of the dress and beads are worked through the embroidered pattern on the bodice. More embroidery is applied to each panel so that it circles around the entire skirt. When you move you glimpses of just how beautiful the embroidery is. 
• This little extra and pretty detail adds that perfect finishing element of romance and femininity. This is Oscar at his very best and it is a tremendously beautiful dress.
• Fully lined in a pink silk with a full built-in cupped corset inside the bodice. The corset closes with its own zipper and then the dress closes over that with a back set zipper. An inner waist stay hooks to close. The dress appears to have been worn very little if at all.

• A version with similar floral finishes walked the runway for the Spring 1982 Givenchy collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Hubert de Givenchy
• In 1952 Hubert de Givenchy founded his namesake house on Rue Alfred de Vigny in Paris and quickly rose to fame as one of the grand couturiers. 16 years later for the 1968-69 season he added a ready-to-wear line of clothing and accessories called 'Givenchy Nouvelle Boutique'. The line was initially sold in the United States exclusively through Bergdorf Goodmans and was eventually made available at other retailers. The line was high end and extremely well made.
• This part of his brand was created specifically to appeal to his non-couture clients who wanted to be able to purchase a piece of the Givenchy dream.
• The label continued until 1992 when it was retired and re-branded as the Givenchy Couture label.
  
• The dress combines a brilliant pink silk skirt with a more fitted strapless bodice. The bodice on this one is so pretty. The base of it is a slightly off-white silk that has a white netting covering it. That is then covered with the prettiest little silk flowers in a range of soft pastel colours mixed with pops of pink and purple.
• The flowers cover the bodice all the way around from the front to the back. They have been laid out flat beside each other and only the centres are sewn down onto the fabric so that the petals sit off the fabric and move slightly with the smallest bit of air. 
• The skirt is full with the silk layer on the top and an inner silk chiffon layer underneath. The colour is a brilliant pink that perfectly picks up in the pink flowers in the bodice. It is set into the waist in soft folds so that it really has fullness and movement when you move.
• The dress comes with its original green silk covered belt that you wear with it for an added pop of colour. 
  
• The dress is fully lined in a ivory silk though the bodice and the skirt is lined in a pink silk. Light boning in the bodice. There is an inner waist stay and another under the bust and both hook to close. It closes with a metal side set zipper. There is a touch of grubbiness along the edges of the bodice around the arm areas and the flowers have softened over the years. There is some grubbiness and slight fading to the edge of the skirt hem and I see one tiny hole in the silk. The belt shows some fading and wear. Please see the photos after the label shot. Everything is minor overall and the dress presents beautifully.
• There is no size tag present. Please go by the measurements listed below.
• Great condition

• The twin of this dress was the finale dress shown as Look 34 for the 2016 Resort Stella McCartney collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Stella McCartney.
• This was one of the most heavily documented dresses of both the collection and the season. It was worn for editorials, on the red carpet and for television appearances. 
• Vogue specifically noted the "citrus-hued, ankle grazing trapeze dresses." saying of that the models who wore these dresses at the end of the presentation "you couldn't have found a woman in the crowd who didn't want to be them or at least look like them for the night"
• This dress was sold out and wait-listed worldwide. Very few were produced.
  
• I love the bright colour that the dress has been done in. It is incredibly difficult to capture the actual colour in a photo and I think it is even better in person as it is a touch paler then how it photoed here.
• The dress is made out of a single layer of feather light silk that verges on a chiffon. This gives it just enough weight to hold its shape fantastically but the lightness of the silk creates masses of movement around you when you move.
• This combined with the brilliant seaming and cut is what gives the dress its exuberant volume and shape.
• Both the front and back neckline are gathered up into little pleats that sit at the base of the neck. To hold the pleats together there are little gold beads placed on matching tiny silk straps that wind their way through the pleats. This little unexpected touch of gold is striking.
• The ties that go through the neckline extend out on either side and you tie them on the top of the shoulder. This allows you to wear the dress as high up or low as you wish. You can see in the reference photos that sometimes the neckline is dropped quite substantially from where I have it in my photos and the ties are what allow you to do this.
• The sides of the dress dip down into sharp little angles leaving a bit of skin to show at the sides. 
• The waist has a generous cut and it is meant to feel more loose and easy. It is really a piece that is easy to fit and should work on a variety of body types. 
  
• The silk falls from underneath the neckline and skims over the body expanding outward to a generously cut seam that sits below the hip. The fabric under that seam then gets progressively wider as it near the hem.
• A wide ruffle of fabric circles all around the lower hem with a wide band of stiffened netting hidden inside to help hold the shape.
• The silk of each tier is gathered into the seam above and below it and this also helps to add to the volume and create that incredible trapeze shape.
• The amount of fabric through the body of the dress and skirt combined with the lightness of the fabric is what lets it billow and move around you in the most spectacular way. And it has pockets.
  
• This is an absolutely stunning example from that season and it is a very collectible piece.
• The dress is unlined and it slips on to wear. It ties on either side of the neck as described above. There is perhaps a tiny bit of grubbiness along the edge of the hem but it otherwise is pristine. The extremely open cut should allow this to fit most frames. It will just drape more on a smaller frame.

Bust-Hips: open
Total length: approx 63" from neck to hem as it is tied here. It could be made longer if you let the ties drop at the top of the dress.

• The twin of this dress walked the runway for Look 41 for the Spring 2011 Gucci collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Frida Giannini.
• This is an instantly recognizable and well-known piece of Gucci history. It was worn and shot for countless editorials and red carpets.
• The dress shows how high-end and detailed ready-to-wear can be in the hands of a heritage label. It verges on Couture.
• Ribbons of silk have been covered with a multitude of textures and materials.
• It is cut across at the front with an extension that ties up and around the neck. A silk cord ties it in place at the back of the neck. At the front the cord extends out and into silk tassels. The very top part is finished with tinted acrylic pieces that are mixed with metal beads, glass beads and antiqued brass metal along with prong-set rhinestones. On the outer sides of the cording is a row of brass pieces shaped to represent feathers and these curve like jewellery along each side.
• A panel runs down the centre on both sides and it is made up of horizontal set silk cording held in place by brass pieces that the silk slips through. The sides of the dress have more of that same mix of materials that the very top part has.
• From the top of the hips down on the sides is a combination of hand-dyed feathers and more brass pieces.
• The shape is very flattering and it skims over you coming in slightly at the waist and curving around the hips. Depending on your height it is going to sit just above the knee or to the knee.
• This is a rare example of one of the most famous dresses that Frida created during her time at Gucci.
• The dress is fully lined in a matching silk and there is a built-in lightly boned corset piece attached through the top. It closes offset at the back with a zipper that has Gucci engraved on a zipper pull. The inner corset closes with its own zipper. There is the tiniest bit of grubbiness along the inner upper bodice.
• There is no size tag present. Please go by the listed measurements below.

• The twin of this dress walked the runway for the Spring 2020 collection as Look 76.
• It was made under the creative direction of Pierpaolo Piccioli. 
• This was one of the most heavily documented dresses of the collection and there is an outstanding number of references as it was shot and photoed everywhere. This dress was sold out and wait-listed worldwide. Very few were produced.
• Vogue said that the show felt like "a long gulp of fresh air and optimism centred on something known." They noted that "in technical terms Piccoli's aim for spring was casualizing the voluminous couture silhouettes he had established over the past few staggeringly well received seasons... The collection was joyful, touched on a myriad of occasions and lifted hearts." It ended with a standing ovation.
• I love the bright colour that the dress has been done in. It is incredibly difficult to capture the actual colour in a photo and I think it is even better in person.
• The dress is made out of an almost parachute feeling fabric that holds its shape fantastically. This combined with the brilliant seaming and cut is what gives the dress its exuberant volume and shape.
• Both the front and back are deeply plunged and everything is kept perfectly in place on the body by the way that it is cut.
• Circling all the way around the arms from the top of the shoulder to the seam under the bust are incredible sleeves that are made from the same fabric. The fabric has been folded over and onto itself to create a double layer. This is what gives them their ruffled volume and airy feel.
  
• The waist has a generous cut and it is meant to feel more loose and easy. It is really a piece that is easy to fit and will work on a variety of sizes.
  
• The skirt is spectacular. It falls from underneath the seam of the bust and expends outwards with four stacked tiers. Each tier gets progressively wider as it nears the hem and the very lowest tier falls out and behind you for a dramatic sweep of fabric. The fabric of each tier is gathered into the seam above and below it and this also helps to add to the volume. 
• The amount of fabric in the skirt and the lightness of the fabric is what lets it billow and move around you as you move. And it has pockets.
• This is an absolutely stunning example of his time at the label and it is a very collectible piece.
• The front triangles are backed with another layer of the same fabric and the skirt is unlined. It closes with a hidden set side zipper.

• This dress is very special and an extremely well documented piece from Spring 1988 collection. 
• It was made under the creative direction of Christian Lacroix.
• It has the special added provenance of being the twin of one of the four dresses portrayed in that instantly recognizable photo taken in his atelier that year. That photo is perhaps one of the most famous photos in the Lacroix history.
• The dress is from his Luxe label that was only produced the very first couple of seasons.
• It was very high end expensive ready-to-wear that was made to near couture standards and was available primarily to his couture clients and a select few beyond that. The label was the predecessor to his later regular ready-to-wear collections. It is said that this label only lasted a couple of seasons because some of the couture clients complained at how close the garments were to their Haute Couture pieces.
• We found numerous reference photos of the dress as it appeared on the runway so you have an amazing idea of how this dress looks on the body.
• The dress is made out of a printed silk organza that has a slight texture running through it.
• Onto that is a glorious floral pattern in pinks and yellow with pops of green. It feels so vibrant and beautiful with that gorgeous print.
• The sleeves are long and they are cut on a slight curve in the traditional couture manner.
• The shoulders are lightly shaped and the front falls into a shallow V.
• The dress has a little bit of gathering just at the bust area down the centre seam and then it falls smoothly  to the hem under that.
• It is cut to skim over you through the body with just a suggestion of shape through the waist.
• At the back the bottom 9" of the skirt has an inset bustle. The fabric there is gathered into a curving seam and there are three black organza half bows stacked one on top of the other to create a bustle feel.
• This is one of his most famous dresses and its amazing. It can be considered to be Demi-Couture.
• The body of the dress is fully lined in a black silk and the sleeves are lined in a white silk. The dress zips to close at the back and each cuff has a zipper to close it. Light padding in the shoulders. Laughing hilarious. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.

• The twin of this set walked the runway for the Spring 1988 Jean Louise Scherrer Haute Couture collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Jean Louise Scherrer.
• The set would have been completely made by hand in the Paris atelier.
• I love that we have reference photos so that you can see how phenomenal this is once it is on an actual body. 
• The silk it is made out of has a soft matte moire pattern finish to it and has just enough weight to hold the intended shape.
• The hand done workmanship on both pieces is phenomenal.
• The skirt is slim cut and on the shorter side. The fabric on it has been gathered up so that it has soft gathers near the top of the hip and the bottom hem at the front. At the back it is all gathered into the centre seam.
• The brevity of the skirt is in sharp contrast with the added volume and fit of the beautiful jacket that tops it.
• The jacket has a full built-in and hand made boned inner half corset tacked into the interior. It zips in place around you. The outer jacket hooks into place over that with a series of hidden set corset hooks. 
  
• The neckline comes down in a wide squared off scoop that leaves the collar bones exposed and extends out to the edges of the shoulders.
• The edges on the jacket are finished with an elaborate ruffle in a matching silk. The ruffle circles behind the neck, continues down the front, and goes all the way around the hem. It is fitted through the waist and meant to have a slight feel of a peplum over the hips.
• The sleeves are incredible. Each is extremely full and they balloon out substantially over the cuffs. There is an exaggerated cuff at their ends with a bit of the same fabric wrapped and tied in knot just above the ruffle.
• Three large fabric roses are placed down the front for the perfect feminine and romantic finish.
• This would make an amazing going away suit or a suit to wear as part of your wedding weekend.
• Both pieces are fully lined in a handset pink silk. The skirt zips to close at the back and the jacket closes as described above. The pink is a slightly paler pink in person. The jacket has its proper Haute Couture numbered tag in place and both pieces are completely made by hand to Couture standards. It appears to have been worn very little if at all. 
• There is no size tag present since it is true couture. Please go by the measurements listed below.

• The twin of this dress walked the Spring 2009 Alexander McQueen runway for Look 24.
• It was made under the creative direction of Alexander McQueen.
• The program notes told the audience of the Spring 2009 runway show that Mcqueen had been thinking of Charles Darwin's theory of the survival of the fittest and 'the deleterious results of industrialization on the natural world'.
• The show was title 'Natural Dis-tinctions, Un-Natural Selection' and the McQueen book notes that 'the cat walk was filled with antique taxidermy, including an elephant giraffe tagger zebra and polar bear, in an art space that was formally of Paris morgue.'
• The twin of the dress was a part of the second portion of the show that was meant to 'continue to draw inspiration from natural forms, flowers, crystals and minerals, but here they were engineer with a hard as an enhanced to convey the synthetic qualities associated with modernity and human touch. Prints were angular and invoked crushed crystal, metallic structures such as the Eiffel tower and a granite mountain that was borrowed from a Dan Holdsworth triptych.'
• This collection was noted as being one of his most commercial to date during this time period and these print pieces especially had instant appeal. This is a very recognizable piece that can instantly  identify as being a McQueen.
• The dress is made out of an unusual fabric that is almost like a neoprene in the way it looks and feels and yet it is not a true neoprene. It is lighter and thinner with just enough weight to it to hold the shape but without it feeling restrictive on the body.
• The shape is built into the dress beginning at the shoulders. Each is lightly padded so that they sit up on top of the shoulders.
• It skims over the bust, nips in at the waist and then curves out at the hips. Even when laying flat you can see the shape built into the dress.
• At the neckline there is a keyhole that has a nude netting in behind it.
• The seams at the hip curve in and over the waist to just under the bust. This precise seaming and cut are all done to give that exact shape that he wished the piece to have.
• When styled on the runway with the plastered hair around the face it had an almost alien feel to it that was fantastic.
• It is an extraordinary piece of Alexander McQueen history.
• The dress is fully lined in a ivory tissue silk and it closes at the back with a hidden set zipper. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
• Tagged a McQueen 38.

• The dress is from 1977 and during this time period his main line dresses were made to order custom pieces.
• It was made under the creative direction of Roy Halston
  
• The examples shared here are almost identical to this dress but without the extra added panels that create the spiralling ruffles.
• This is a beautiful dress that showcases the minimal seaming that Halston was so famous for.
• The dress is made of a heavier weighted silk charmeuse that is cut like the reference photos show through the body but with added panels and seams that go around and cascade down the lower skirting.
• It is completely cut on the bias so it drapes phenomenally over the body. You simply slip it over your head and it drapes over you to accommodate the body underneath. This makes it easy to fit and very easy to wear.
• The sleeves are long and extend out directly from the body of the dress with no seaming around the arm. Each narrows to its cuff where there is a handmade silk covered button and loop.
• The neckline is cut wide across the neckline and has a subtle draping at the centre of the neck at both the front and back of the dress. It is a very pretty detail.
• It glides over the body skimming over the bust, waist and hips to the floor. The vertical ruffles are set on an angle so that they cascade down to the hem. When you move these swirl around the lower part of the dress and create gorgeous movement around you.
• Working with this fabric is incredibly difficult and it is a testament to his skill to create such a seemingly simple but a complex pattern in reality.
• The dress is fully lined in a second layer of the same fabric which adds to the technically difficultly of the pattern and rich feel of the silk. It has no closures and slips on to wear. Each cuff has a silk covered button and loop to close. The colour is slightly more ivory in person. I see some minor marks and scuffing here and there on the silk of the bottom ruffles. I shot one so that you can see. It is very minor but mentioned for accuracy. 
• There is no size tag and the bias cut will allow it to have it some give. Please go by the range of measurements listed below. On a smaller frame it will just drape more.
• Excellent condition.

Sleeves: approx 23.5" and are 16" around the upper arm

• This gown dates to the 2010-2011 season.
• It was made (or completed) under the creative direction of Sarah Burton.
• The dress certainly would have been released when Sarah had taken over the reins of McQueen. The date of the hang tag does have it falling right in that window where Alexander could have had a hand in its design and then by its release it would have been under Sarah's era. It is a phenomenal example of how beautiful that the McQueen aesthetic can be. 
• The dress combines an ivory silk for the exterior and then the skirt of the inner dress underneath has been densely embroidered. It is a beautiful combination.
• The bodice is strapless and there is internal structure to hold it in place around the body including a cupped inner bust and boned hidden inner corset. The silk on the exterior has been placed over the bodice in flat pleats that are set on a slight angle and then open up into the skirt.
• The inner skirt is made from an added panel that has been embroidered in a soft pastel palette with just a hint of a metallic feel to it. It depicts flowers in soft golden taupe with pale blue and greens.
• The outer skirt curves up and around that inner panel and there is padding set into each hip to hold the shape.
• The skirt is draped over the padding of the hip and curves down to the floor to become an extended train at the back.
• At the centre of the back there is a wide folded panel of silk that is set vertically. It snaps into place over the back zipper and then extends outwards to become part of the skirt. All of the seaming is hidden underneath so the illusion of the panel simply flowing down into the skirt is perfectly maintained.
• The workmanship is exquisite and shows the extreme high tailoring that the McQueen label is known for. This is a very rare piece and would have been made in limited quantities.
• The dress is fully lined in a matching ivory silk with a full built-in corset that extends to the top of the hips. There are wired cups in the bodice and it has hidden boning throughout. There is hidden padding through the hip as described above. The panel at the back snaps into place with silk covered snaps and then the dress closes with a hidden set zipper under that. The inner corset closes with its own zipper. I see some minor grubbiness at the hem but the dress is new with tags and was never worn.

• The dress is from mid-later seventies and during this time period his main line dresses were made to order custom pieces.
• It was made under the creative direction of Roy Halston
  
• This is a beautiful dress that showcases the minimal seaming that Halston was so famous for.
• The dress is made of a light in weight ivory silk. It is completely cut on the bias so it drapes phenomenally over the body. You simply slip it over your head and it drapes over you to accommodate the body underneath. This makes it easy to fit and very easy to wear.
• The sleeves are long and extend out directly from the body of the dress with no seaming around the arm. Each flares out at its cuff adding a pretty added detail.
• The neckline is scooped and it hooks to close at the back of the neck. This closure sits over an open keyhole slit. I have shot all of the photos of the dress with the keyhole at the back, but it is so well-made that I think you could spin it around and wear it to the front if you wished.
• It glides over the body skimming over the bust, waist and hips to the floor. There is a low dropped seamed that sits just over the top of the hip. For some of the photos, I tied a velvet ribbon just above this to highlight the waist. You could also goop a ribbon along that seam and have the top blouse over and shorten the skirt. I love that you have several styling options with this one.
• Working with this fabric is incredibly difficult and it is a testament to his skill to create such a seemingly simple but a complex pattern in reality.
• The dress is unlined with no closures and slips on to wear. Hand finishes throughout. The ribbon is not original to the dress but will be included. I see one light mark on one shoulder. Please see the photo after the label shot. The sleeves have an ironed seam running down their tops. All very minor but mentioned for accuracy. 
• There is no size tag and the bias cut will allow it to have it some give. Please go by the range of measurements listed below. On a smaller frame it will just drape more.
• Excellent condition.

• The twin of this set walked the runway for the Fall 1985 YSL collection
• It was made under the creative direction of Yves Saint Laurent.
• It was the look that was chosen for the ad campaign that season and it was featured prominently on the runway. 
• I have seen this set produced in this blue, a purple, and a black. This one is done in a deep blue and it is just outstanding.
• As good as it looks in these still shots, it is even better in real life because it is really when you are moving that these pieces live up to their full potential. An incredible amount of silk jersey has gone into the making of the skirt and corset.
• The bodice has four heavily draped and gathered panels that are gathered into boned vertical lengths on each side as well as down the centre front and back of the corset.
• The inner stays shape the top around you and hold it in place. Besides the four main stays there is also hidden boning in between each of those, the front ones helped shape it around the bust and the ones in the back help to shape it.
• It is cut on a curve on both the top and the bottom so that it fits perfectly over you and creates that sexy hourglass shape.
• Then at the base of each of the four main vertical seam that in case the stays, he has put a 6 inch tassel. These are very well made and have a more substantial feel. When you move these move with the sway of your body, and just as an incredible detailing.
• The final piece of the set is the skirt and it is as equally remarkable. The skirt is made out of single layer of the same blue silk jersey as the top. It has a band around waist and that band has elastic inside of it, so it is incredibly easy to fit and comfortable to wear.
• There are more yards of silk in the skirt then it appears at first glance. The fabric is so light and fine that when you stand still it falls in a pretty column around you without adding bulk. You still get a hint of the fullness that it has but then when you move the fabric that is actually there allows the skirt to move fantastically around you.
• No matter how good it looks in the photos the mix of the restraint of the corset with the lightness of the jersey in the skirt and then the movement of the tassels is just phenomenal. 
• The corset is fully lined in a blue silk. There is an inner waist, say that hooks to close and then it zips to close at the side. The skirt slips on with elastic around the waist. I see some slight patina to the silk inside the corset. It is minor but mentioned for accuracy.
• Both pieces are tagged a vintage YSL 44

• This Christian dress is from the Spring 1972 Haute Couture collection
• It was made under the creative direction of Marc Bohan 
• In the book 'Dior Catwalk' it notes that the New York Times exclaimed, that "romance, contemporary style, is the provision look for spring." It goes on to declare that Bohans collection for Dior was the best of the season in Paris. "Mark Bohan succeeded in bringing back the fable elegance without becoming historical. There's no pinpointing of the 1930s or 1940s. The clothes look really contemporary".
• I love that we have reference photos so you can see how the dress looks like once in the body. 
• The dress would have been made completely by hand in the Paris atelier.
• It is made out of a beautiful lightly starched blue silk gazaar that is woven on the bias. This is a difficult technique to achieve and allows the dress to retain its more sculptural structure and shape while keeping the dress light in weight. 
• It is cut to sit fully off the shoulders to leave a bare expanse of skin showing.
• Each sleeve is cut to just above the elbow and has a beautiful five inch ruffle flaring out all the way around.
• It skims over the bust and curves in a touch at the waist. The shape is all achieved by the immaculate cut of the fabric.
• Inside there is a full boned inner corset that extends down to the top of the hips. The silk glides over top of this perfectly.
• From there it curves back over the hips and then widens out beautifully to the hem. The entire hem is finished with an eight inch wide ruffle that picks up on the detailing of the sleeves to perfectly tie all of the elements together.
• As good as this dress looks in the photos it is even more beautiful in person.
• The dress is lined in a hand set blue silk organza. The inner corset closes with its own zipper and there is an inner partial waist stay that hooks to close inside the corset. The dress zips to close over that at the side. All of the work is done by hand to Haute Couture standards. It has its proper numbered Couture tag inside.
• There is no size tag since it is true couture. Please go by the measurements listed below.
• Excellent condition

Sleeves: 9.5" and they are 11" around the upper arm

• The twin of this dress walked the runway as Look 44 for the Pre-Fall 2011 ODLR show.
• It was made under the creative direction of Oscar de la Renta.
• Vogue said of the collection that "After more than 40 years in business, de la Renta has earned the privilege to send multiple messages down the catwalk and he definitely has a diverse fan base, but for the most part, the 59 looks he showed today played best to the polished uptown types who love him best"
• I love that we have runway reference photos and video to show you how fantastically the jumpsuit moves.
• On the runway, it was paired with a fur trimmed shrug and an extra wide ribbon was wrapped around the waist. I think it is one of those pieces that gives you the opportunity to style it multiple ways.
• The jumpsuit is made from a black silk chiffon that has a metallic blue design that has been heavily applied to the silk. Onto that are beads and sequins.
• The additional embellishments to create the pattern over the silk are gorgeous and it is even better in person then how it photoed.
• At first glance you appear to be wearing a dress but it is actually jumpsuit legs. They are just very full and wide. So when you stand still you look like you are wearing a strapless dress but when you move, you have the ease of pants.
• The bodice is strapless and meant to be more fitted to the body. Inside there is a full built-in corset that is cupped and boned for support and to hold the jumpsuit in place around you.
• The waist nips in and is defined by a seam and then the jumpsuit curves out and over the hips. The pant legs widen out as they near their hem and each is a full 50" around the bottom hem.
  
• I love the high glam of the fabric and strapless bodice mixed with ease of the wide legs. 
• The jumpsuit is fully lined in a black chiffon. The inner corset closes with its own zipper and then a hidden set zipper is set over that. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
• There is no size tag present. Please go by the measurements listed below.

• The twin of this incredible dress walked the runway for Look 31 for the Fall 2010 collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of John Galliano.
• Vogue's review stated that Galliano's Fall ready-to-wear for Dior was "Equestrian-themed, a follow-on from the daywear strand of the acclaimed Couture show in January. This was to be a brisk albeit slightly perfunctory trot around the circuit of Galliano's longtime favourite 18th century."
• In the book Dior:Catwalk they noted that Galliano had baptized the collection "The Seduction of the Libertine". The collection notes read "Riding in from the hunt that began at the Haute Couture, Dior discovers intrigue and inspiration in gallant riding habits as it goes from the stables to the seductive style and verse of those infamous romantics, the 18th century Libertines"... "This season Dior takes up the heroic spirit of the French romanticism." said Galliano.
• This dress is deceptive in it simplicity. It is completely cut on the bias and this gives it incredible curves once on an actual body. It almost feels like you are wearing nothing because of the soft sand colour and the lightness of the silk chiffon.
• The bodice crosses over itself and there is a silk chiffon ruffle that follows the neckline. This wraps around you and buttons behind the neck. Panels extend out from the top that are cut wide and edged in a ruffle. By tying those around the front of the neck you get that beautiful ruffle falling down the front as seen here and on the runway.
• The bodice skims to the waist and the waist is seamed but with a slightly more generous feel. If you really wanted to add shape you can cinch this in quite substantially.
• The back dips low to leave a bare expanse of skin to show.
• The top layer of the skirt wraps over itself as it attaches in around the waist and there is a substantial amount of silk used for the skirt to give it it's extensive draping. Under that is a second inner silk layer in the same colour. A slit runs up the side of the inner layer. 
• The entire bottom of the skirt has round cut outs in various sizes that circle all the way around the lower skirt. Each of the cut outs are finished with a heavily applied embroidered edge done in a matching coloured thread. This gives the bottom of the dress extraordinary texture and detail.
• This is an incredible and rare documented runway piece.
• The dress is fully lined in a second layer of the same silk chiffon. A row of his signature matching silk covered buttons and loops runs down the side to close the dress. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
• Tagged a Dior FR36, GB8 IT40, US4

Bust: the front bust has open sides and is cut quite generously to fit a variety of bust sizes and shapes
The underbust area where the sides begin is cut on the bias and can range from 16-19.5" flat across from side seam to side seam 
Waist: to 14" flat across from side seam to side seam
Inner hips: 20-23" flat across from side seam to side seam
Bodice: approx 17-18" from neck to waist but meant to blouse over a touch

• This dress is from the Fall 2001 "Les Fauves" Thierry Mugler collection
• It was made under the creative direction of Thierry Mugler. 
• The Fall 2001 show was Mugler's final ready-to-wear show making it that much more historically significant.
• I purchased this from a client and having trying to get this out of their hands for years now. The person they bought it from got it directly from an employee at Mugler. The piece is unlabelled and very few of these were made.
• I love that we have reference photos from the runway along with the video that shows you how it moves as you walk.
• In this collection the women who walked the runway represented women as a predators. Dangerous but at the same time controlled and elegant.
• In a Numero editorial they called Mugler "one of the most important fashion designers of the modern era" saying that "with Mugler femininity is in your face and assumed 100%." Nathalie Bondi of the Montreal Museum of fine arts said that his work was "Extravagant, sexy and sometimes irreverent 'his fashion conjugates with the superlative. With Mugler fashion became art.'"
• In that same article, they declared a list of his nine "Cult Collections" and included the Fall 2001 ready-to-wear show in that list calling it a "ferocious farewell".
• This is the year that Thierry Mugler decided to end his fashion activities. Later the designer would say "Fashion was a very emotional and artistic vehicle in the 1970s, 80s and 90s, the look was extremely important... but it's not like that anymore. I pushed fashion to its limit, but today creation is limited by money, marketing."
  
• The dress is made out of a heavy golden toned silk that wraps into place around the body. The entire collar is made from what I believe to be a faux goat or long hair sheep that has been hand dip dyed all along its edges to get that change of colour.
• The collar follows the deep V at the front. The V is slightly curved to follow the curves of the body. My dress form tends to be short through the bodice, so please go by the runway photos to see how it fits as far as how deep it lies
• I love that the collar is actually buttoned into place so you can choose to wear it without the collar effectively giving you two dresses in one. This also allows for ease of cleaning since it can be removed.
• Straps curve up and over the shoulder and the inside is formed by his signature angled and curved insets that shaped the dress around the body.
  
• At the side, those panels curved down and out over the hips to give the dress more of an hourglass feel to exaggerate the shape of the body.
• The dress wraps over itself at the front and snaps into place with his signature snaps that he used so often during this time period. 
• The skirt falls under that, curving over the hips and then narrowing into the hem at the front. The wrap of the closure allows for some dripping at the front while the back stays more smooth and sleek.
• The wrapping also lets your legs show as you walk, which you can see in the runway references.
• Everything about the dress is absolutely spectacular and I love how the entire dress feels like it slightly glows in the light because of the gold toned silk.
• This is a spectacular and very rare example of his work from this era.
  
• The dress is fully lined with the same silk and the inner seam work is so well done that you could almost wear this dress inside out. It closes with two series of hidden set snaps around the waist. The collar can snap on or off. I see some small marks near the hem both inside and out. Please see the last detail photo. You could adjust the snaps a touch up or down if needed.
• There is no size tag present. Please go by the measurements below.
• Excellent condition with the one minor note above

Waist: to 13.5" flat across from side seam to side seam.

• The twin of this dress walked the Spring 1980 YSL collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Yves Saint Laurent.
• This dress and the various prints it was made in were integral to that season's collection. Several versions were photoed for various editorials and were included in the ad campaign that year.
• The dress is made out of a feather light red silk organza that has a beautiful white curving print that runs over the entire dress from top to bottom.
• The red is a beautiful clear deep colour that flatters more skin tones.
• The neck line is set wide across so you can wear it off of the shoulder for a bare expanse of skin to show. A wide 8" ruffle follows the entire neckline and has the prettiest flounce all the way around.
• The bodice skims down to a low dropped waist that is cut more generously through the middle. The dress comes with a matching silk tie belt that you can cinch in the waist as much as needed. 
• The skirt is set into a slightly angled seam around the waist and the seam comes up slightly at one side. Tiny gathered pleats are set in all along the seam and this gives the skirt incredible volume.
• The skirt falls shorter at the front and longer at the back. If you were to lay this out and open the skirt out it is more than a full circle around. That volume combined with the lightness of the fabric gives you incredible movement when you move.
• This is an absolutely stunning example of his work during this time period and one of my favourite pieces I have ever had in by him.
  
• The bodice of the dress is lined in a silk chiffon. A second layer of silk chiffon that skims over the inner body to just past the inner hip was added to make it more opaque. I have left it in because it does make the dress easier to wear but it could be removed very easily. It closes with a side set zipper and has its original tie belt.
• There is no size tag present. Please go by the measurements listed below.
  
• Excellent condition

Bust: 17" flat across from side seam to side seam

• This dress dates to the late 1970s, maybe early 1980s.
• It was made under the creative direction of Richard Blackwell.
• The Mr Blackwell label was launched by Richard Blackwell in the late 1950s and even at that time his dresses sold for between $800 and $1000 which in modern dollars converts to up to $10,000 a dress. He dressed many of the big stars of the day including Jane Russell, Dorothy Lamour and Jayne Mansfield.
• His custom label was pieces that were made-to-order and were one-of-a-kind pieces that were fitted to a specific client in the couture tradition.
• During the 1960s he became the first in history to present a collection during a television broadcast and he is also the first to be attributed  making for his line available for plus-size women. This is a beautiful example of his work during this point of his label.
• The dress is made out of a very pretty brightly printed black jersey that holds the shape and volume very well.
• The dress has a fairly simple silhouette. The inner dress is meant to skim over the body all the way to the floor, and then there is an attached piece around the neck line that falls over the upper shoulders.
• The front is set a bit wider across the neck and then the back scoops down into a V to add an unexpected flash of bare skin
• A little extra shape is added by the matching tie belt that is made out of the same fabric. I have topped it into a bow that sits just under the edge of the cape for these photos. You could easily wear the dress without it or change it for a wider more substantial belt.
• The there are no sleeves on the inner dress. Instead, the single layer of matching jersey is attached around the edge of the neckline. It is just under 15" in width at its widest point and it drapes over your shoulders and down the top of the arm. This continues all the way around front to back to give you that lovely cape effect that you see.
• Under the cape, the dress is meant to skim over your bust, waist and hips. Once past the hips it widens out slightly to the floor.
• The perfect finishing detail is the addition of hand set sequins that sit over the print of the cape portion of the dress. On the lighter colours they are a clear sequin with an iridescent finish, and on other colours they chose sequins to match the colour underneath. This lets the dress have a subtle glimmer in the light.
• The dress is fully lined in a black stretch jersey and it closes at the back with a zipper. Hand finishes throughout. It appears to have been worn very little if at all.
• There is no size tag present. Please go by the measurements below.
• Excellent condition

Cape: is just under 15" it's widest point

• This dress is from the Pre-Fall 2025 Valentino collection.
• In 2015 Valentino was headed by both Maria Grazia Chiuri and PierPaolo Piccioli. 
• Vogue said that "Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpaolo Piccioli signed up the British textile designer Celia Birtwell, the ex-wife of the late Ossie Clark and the woman behind his floral prints in the 1970s, as well as the Italian pop artist Giosetta Fioroni as collaborators this season." In the collection the butterfly print was seen in several pieces.
• Other pieces made out of the butterfly print were worn to events that fall and we include the reference photos here just to have an added point of provenance on the print.
• This is one of my favourite Valentino dresses I have had and it is even better in real life.
• The dress is made out of a beautiful lightweight silk that has a blue and black tone-on-tone butterfly print that covers its entire surface. 
• The butterflies in the print are large and varied. They are set so that they overlap each other to create a beautiful design over the entire dress.
• The shoulders are soft and the sleeves are cut fairly straight all the way down to their cuffs.
• The neckline is set high and long ties extend out at the back. I have tied it in a bow behind the neck but you could also wrap it around to the front if you wished and have the ties hanging or wrap it multiple times to create a wider neckline.
• The dress skims over the bust and drapes easily over the body to the waist. The waist is cut slightly more on the generous side. You could belt it if you wanted to add more shape.
• The skirt falls from there with closed pleat work wrapping around the upper hip. These open up from there and the skirt expands outwards all the way to the hem.
• The excessive amount of fabric used through the skirt give it a ton of movement when you walk and move. 
  
• The lightness of the silk and the way that it lays over the body allows it to move spectacularly over you and pick up the slightest bit of air as you move. It really is even more stunning in person.
• The dress is unlined and closes with a hidden set back zipper. The tie at the neck is attached. Each cuff closes with a small button. The dress has its original tags still attached and was never worn.

• The twin of this dress was Look 28 for the Resort 2008 Nina Ricci presentation
• It was made under the creative direction of Olivier Theyskens
  
• I love that we have runway reference photos and you can see how beautiful it is on Chanel Iman. It is a highly collectible piece and is a very special dress from the Olivier Theyskens era at Nina Ricci.
• In Vogue's review they stated that "What makes Olivier Theyskens such a compelling designer is the way his collections tend to riff on and grow from what came before. For resort the ex-Rochas front man continued to explore things he established at his first Nina Ricci show in March. There were more of the twisting around the body evening dresses... he pieced spirals together with patchworks of fabric for an elegant and ultimately more subtle effect than the ones produced by his fantastical fall creations." The said that the collection was "romantic, and rebellious at once, not unlike Theyskens himself."
• The dress is completely cut on the bias and you just slip it on to wear. It drapes over the body in a way that highlights your curves and yet is not tight fitting anywhere.
• Panels in both a black and a deep blue are set vertically on angles over the entire length of the body. The cut has a strong nod to the bias cut couture pieces from the 1920s and 1930s.
• Both the front and back are set in a V at the neckline for a bit of skin to offset the use of the fabric through the rest of the dress.
• The dress skims beautifully over the bust, waist and hips. Once past the hip area the lower skirt begins to flare out dramatically.
• The back is cut to sweep around and out behind you. Yard and yards of bias cut fabric make up the lower skirt and train. This creates the most beautiful movement around you as you move. Even in the still photos from the runway you get the feel of motion in the way the dress falls over the body.
• The very top of each shoulder has been finished with hand dyed black feathers. These are handset over the top of the arm to fall delicate over the top of your shoulders and upper arm. I love the extra drama and movement that the feathers create.
• This is a spectacular and rare dress from his time at the label. All of his work is highly collectible.
• The dress is unlined with hand finishes throughout. The dress is in its original uncut length. It has no closures and simply slips onto wear. The bias cut gives it lots of room through the body so it should fit a variety of sizes. On a smaller frame it will just drape more. I have put the comfortable range of measurements below. I see some light scuffing on the fabric. Very minor. Please see the photo after the label shot.

• The reference photos and video of the dress on the runway showcase just how amazing the dress is on.
• I have also included a reference photo of Bella Hadid who famously wore a white and black version of the dress in 2022.
• The dress is made out of a beautiful blue silk that has a gold metallic stripe running through it. This gives the dress the structure to hold the shape while keeping it light-in-weight once on. The all blue portion of the skirt between the bodice and hem is made out of a netted fabric.
• The bodice is strapless and there is built-in inner boning for support. The boning continues down the sides and to the lower seam. 
• Soft horizontal gathers are set over the full length of the bodice and I love how this creates extra visual interest with the gold stripes.
• The waist curves in and then curves back out over the top of the hips. 
• The skirt falls from there with a pretty fullness. The upper portion of the top layer of the skirt is made of the netting and then there is a 12' band of the striped silk around the lower part of the skirt
• That top layers sits over a second layer of netting underneath and then there is a blue silk layer under that.
• I love that they have folded that bottom panel of silk under so it is completely backed by the same silk inside. It adds a bit of extra structure and helps to hold the shape of the skirt.
• The striped silk that finishes the bottom hem perfectly ties the components of the dress together. The silk on the bottom panel is set with the stripes on an angle and you will notice that the sleeves have also been set on an angle while the bodice is horizontal. It is the small details that are so spectacular in Karl's Chanel.
• At the back of the bodice there is a tightly spaced row of gold metal Chanel buttons that have little Chanel perfume bottles engraved into them. There are twelve in total.
• The sleeves are incredible. They are separate pieces from the dress. To wear them you slip them over your arm. They have stiffened tulle inside the part that puffs out which helps to hold that shape with a more fitted sleeve underneath that runs down your arm. Each sleeve ends in a point to cover the top of your hand.
  
• This is a spectacular and rare piece of Chanel history.
• The bodice of the dress is lined in a deep blue silk and the skirt is lined as described above. It closes with a back set zipper underneath the row of gold metal buttons embossed with a Chanel perfume bottle. There is an extra spare button sewn into the lining inside. The sleeves have tulle inside to help hold the shape and elastic on the upper arm while the lower cuff zips to close.

• This dress is from the Spring 2013 YSL collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Hedi Slimane and this was his debut collection for the label.
• The two closest looks that were shown on the runway that had the same/similar style of skirt were Looks 38 and 45 on the runway. We included both of those so you get an idea of how this falls once on the body.
• The bodice is strapless with a double panel of black silk that wraps around the entire bodice splitting at the back on either side of the zipper. The inner panel is fitted to the bottom and then the other one floats over that and is attached only around the upper edge.
• Inside there is a full built-in corset made out of black lingerie stretch netting that is lightly boned. It hooks to close at the side under the exterior zipper and has an attached waist stay that hooks to close. This is what holds the dress in place around you.
• From the the seem directly under the bodice panel the dress falls to the floor. It is pleated into that seam at the centre of both the back and the front and this helps to give it added volume and hold it slightly away from the body.
• It skims over the waist and curves back out over the hips. It flares out with more volume around the legs and then narrows in words towards the hem. 
• At the front, it is caught on a upward curve that makes the front portion of the dress more of a mini dress length. That cut out is cut on a beautiful curve down and around to the hem at the back and at the back it is completely full length.
  
• It is perfectly minimalist and yet has a definitive nod towards the time period where Yves favoured the same cut through the skirt.
• The dress has a full built-in boned inner corset that closes with its own zipper and hooks at the waist. The rest of the dress is unlined. It closes at the side over the inner corset with a hidden set zipper.

• This dress is from the Spring 1976 Collection
• It was made under the creative direction of Roy Halston.
• These front tie dresses are one of the most iconic signature pieces from Halston. It was heavily documented that season and remains one of the most beloved silhouettes of all the pieces he designed.
• Halston created several of these dresses in different colours that season. They tended to be mainly produced in a bias cut silk or a hammered bias cut silk and rarely in velvet. Even the silk versions are hard to find now and finding one in a black velvet is very rare.
• It is said that before even putting scissors to fabric, Halston already had a mental image of how he wanted to dress to look. He believed that evening pieces should be as easy-to-wear and comfortable as day wear but absolutely elegant at the same time. When these dresses were shown for the first time in 1976 the press dubbed them as being "clean and and yet still with sex appeal".
• This is from the main Halston label and these were pieces were custom-made or made to order at this point in the brands history.
  
• The dress is strapless and ties at the front of the bust. This creates a little discreet keyhole under the tie. It also allows you to adjust the fit by how loose or tight you tie it.
• The cut is very forgiving as it skims over the bust, comes in slightly at the waist. and then curves back out over the hips. It is not meant to be super fitted. This is a dress that is very easy to fit. On a smaller frame it drapes more and the bias cut will allow it to move to accommodate if you need more room.
• From there it continues to skim over the body all the way to the hem widening out slightly as it nears the floor.
• The seaming is all set on an angled curve that wraps around the body. This means the entire dress is made out of one piece of black velvet. Do not underestimate its simplicity. Creating the dress in this way is actually quite complex and a technical challenge. Without seaming at the sides, the shape of the dress completely relies on the way it drapes, making it a much more difficult task and complex problem to have it fall over the body as perfectly as it does.
• Personally, I think this might be one of the most iconic little black dresses to have ever been created. It's a highly collectible piece for the Halston collector. 
• The dress is fully lined in a black silk and slips on to wear with a tie at the front that you can adjust for fit. I see slight change in the pile of the velvet where it ties at the front from being tied. This is a natural occurrence and is not considered a flaw but mentioned for accuracy.
• There is no size tag present so please go by the measurements listed below
• Excellent condition

Bust: approx 17-19.5" flat across from side seam to side seam with the ability to adjust the size at the front because of the tie
Waist: 15-21" flat across from side seam to side seam
Hips: 18-24" flat across from side seam to side seam
Total length: 56" from top of bodice to hem with approx 2.5" turned under the hem

• Note that due to new regulations this set can only ship to a Canadian address. If you need further assistance on this please get in touch.
• The dress dates to the 1990s maybe into the 2000s.
• It was made under the creative direction of Thierry Mugler.
• Thierry was a masterpiece of draping and cut and this is a fantastic example of that. It is cut with Mugler's masterful eye and attention to detail.
• The dress is made out of a deep pink silk organza. The front modesty panel is finished with a combination of beading, silver sequins and prong set rhinestones.
• Wide straps curve up and around the neck and hook at the back. This extends out into wide triangles that run down the front with a plunge that goes to the waist. Set in behind the plunge is a highly detailed modesty panel that is covered with silver beads, sequins and rhinestones for a little added flash. At the back the upper back is left bare and exposed.
• The modesty panel is attached into place between the front bodice but it could easily be removed if you wanted the dress to have a full plunge to the waist.
• The waist is cinched in and angles upwards towards the centre of the front. It curves and drops around and down at the back for a flattering line.
• The skirt curves over the hips to below the knee. The seam that the lower skirt is set into matches the same upward curve as the waist at the front and then the same downward curve of the back waist at the back.
• Below that, the lower skirt flares out dramatically all the way around you. There are yards and yards of fabric in the lower skirt to give it beautiful volume and movement when you move.
• I love that the back of the skirt has extra fabric built-in so that it falls longer than the front. This gives you a fantastic sweeping feel behind you as you walk.
• The fabric of the upper portion of the skirt is covered with an extra layer of the chiffon that has been gathered and manipulated to feel like flowers. Each flower has a sequin and bead at its centre with a little flare of pink feathers all done in the same colour as the dress. 
• This is a fabulous example of his work and it is absolutely gorgeous.
• The dress is fully lined in a matching pink silk and closes with a back hidden set zipper. There are moulded cups inside each halter that are tacked in and could be removed if extra room is needed. The skirt has multiple layers to hold the volume.

• The near twin of this dress walked the Spring 2005 ODLR runway for Look 53.
• It was made under the creative direction of Oscar de la Renta.
• I love having video and the reference photos so that you can see how it moves.
• The skirt on this dress falls longer then the runway version and it is swept up slightly to one side.
• Vogue said that his collections "are a delight to the eye: flawlessly executed, poised, and urbane with just the right balance of mature charm and youthful exuberance" and this dress in particular was noted when they said "When it comes to evening wear no one knows more about giving women what they want... a cooly elegant strapless dress with an undulating puff skirt? In Oscar's world there's no such thing as the wrong choice."
•  The dress is made out of the perfect deep fuchsia pink silk. It is strapless and the neckline curves around and over the bust dipping in the middle. The strapless silhouette leaves your upper back bare and exposed.
• Starting at the waist area the silk is draped from the centre of the back and wraps around the waist and over the top of the hip on either side. It is then gathered over itself at the centre front. I think this detail is beautiful.
• Inside there is a full built-in corset that is cupped, boned and shaped for support.
• The skirt is spectacular. Here you see the genius of Oscar. The skirt has a ton of volume to it that shows best when you move. It is made out of a cascade of pink silk with a second layer under the top layer. At the front, both layers are cut shorter and then they sweep around to the back.
• The skirt becomes wider and more full as it nears the hem. At the back it falls longer then the front so that you get this pretty curve from the side view along with a fantastic sweep of skirts from the back. There is a second inner layer that falls lower on the leg and it has a bit of an asymmetrical feel.
• All of the volume is created by the yards and yards of silk used and the addition of a pink silk organza lining which helps to hold air between the two layers and keep the volume.
• When this is on and you are walking the effect and movement that this creates is absolutely gorgeous. This is Oscar at his very best.
• The dress is fully lined in a matching pink silk organza. The interior corset closes with its own zipper at the back and then a second hidden set zipper closes the dress over that. The inner corset is fully boned and cupped. An attached inner waist stay hooks to close. I see a tiny bit of stress to the seam just under the zipper that is very minor but mentioned for accuracy, and perhaps some grubbiness around the hem, again very minor but mentioned for accuracy.
• There is no size tag present. Please go by the measurements listed below.
• Excellent condition 

Bust: 15-16" flat across from side seam to side seam
Waist: 12.5" flat across from side seam to side seam
Seam at top of the hips: to 18" flat across from side seam to side seam

Total length: 80.5" from top of the bodice to longest point of the back hem, 43" to the shortest point at the front

• This dress is from the Spring 1987 collection.
• It was made under the creative direction of Yves Saint Laurent
• I have included reference photos of similar dresses used for the ad campaign and shown on the runway so that you can get an idea of how great this dress will be on the body.
• The 1987 collection is one of my all time favourites and I am very pleased to have this wonderful example from it in the shop.
• The dress is made from a black silk base with a layer of dotted black silk netting applied over the bodice in horizontal bands. This choice in fabric gives the dress its structure and shape so that it holds the shape around you once on.
• The bodice is strapless and cut on a soft curve across the neckline. It is lightly boned on the inside to hold the dress perfectly in place. It curves in over the waist and then curves back out over the hips. From there the lower skirts flare outwards to the hem.
• The lower skirt is quite full and makes an incredible statement. It has a fishnet style lace for its top layer. Under that is a layer of dotted lace to subtly tie in the lace of the bodice. Under those layers two more layers of the fishnet lace to give it its incredible fullness.
• On the bodice the lace is separated by five wide bands made out of a black silk ribbon that give a beautiful and rich feel to the dress. I love the contrast between the texture of the silk and the dotted netting.
• Each ribbon is stacked to run from the very top of the bodice to the lowest seam above the skirt. Each ribbon is gathered into a little folded bow and has a round metal circle attached that is finished with  glossy black glass rhinestones. There are five of those big jewelled pieces in total and they add the perfect amount of glitz to the dress. The combination of the silk ribbon, the dotted lace, the jewelled circles and that stunning full lower skirt is just gorgeous to see and it is even better on the body.
• The dress fully lined in a crisp black cotton and closes with a side set zipper. The inner bodice is lightly boned and shaped. I see some minor repairs in the netting of the skirt. You only see them if you are looking for them because of the amount of fabric in the skirt and the black layers. It otherwise appears to have been worn very little if at all.

• The twin of this skirt walked the runway for the Fall 2014 Anthony Vaccarello collection as part of Look 31.
• It was made under the creative direction of Anthony Vaccarello.
• Vogue talked about "the asymmetric hems on miniskirts and the hip high slits... that made this collection look identify his own." they went on to say "it was easily his most well-rounded so far with a new emphasis on tailoring."
• The silhouette of this skirt was used in several variations on the runway. We have included one reference photo that shows it very clearly. 
• On the runway these were worn layered over mini dresses. In real life, street stylers were seen wearing it with tights on its own, or even with a full bare leg for those that dared. It would even work over a pant or short.
• I love that it gives you a range of styling options to make it feel fresh and able to be worn multiple times without feeling like the same piece.
• The skirt is made out of a wool mix that has a matte satin backing.
• It is extremely easy to pop on as it wraps around you and then and then buttons into place with two flat silver round buttons on one side of the hip.
• The wrap affect is what leaves that high slit and it is cut with that slit intentionally left on an open angle. I took a photo of it laying flat so you could get a better idea of its silhouette.
• The waist is cut slightly more generous and you have the option of wearing it at the waist if that is your waist size but it would also work on a smaller frame with it worn down more on the top of the hip.
• The fabric is self backed as described above and it closes with the two buttons as described above. It is very well made with black ribbon finish all the way around the inner edge of the seams. The skirt is new with tags and was never worn.

• This skirt is from the Marc by Marc Jacobs line and is from the early-mid 2010s.
• It was made under the creative direction of Marc Jacobs.
• This is a fantastic and easy to wear skirt. It's made out of a extremely supple soft, black leather.
• The waist is a combination of elastic with a tie front and you just slip it on and you can adjust the tie slightly.
• Panels run down the centre front and back, and then the sides are broken into two separate seamed panels.
• Over the side panels are an exaggerated pocket that has a bit of extra length at the top. This lets it draped out from the skirt slightly for a soft slouchy feel.
• The waist is cut slightly more generous and you have the option of wearing it at the waist if that is your waist size but it would also work on a smaller frame with it worn down more on the top of the hip.
• It perfectly hits that fine line between the sexiness of the leather and length mixed with the slightly sportswear feel of the pockets and casual waist.
• The skirt is fully lined in a black synthetic including the pockets. It slips onto where as described above with a slight adjustable waist.

• This is the Carnelian Constellation dress from Collection 9 by Cucculelli Shaheen
• It was made under the creative direction of Anna Rose Shaheen and Anthony Cucculelli.
• This collection was called the "House of Mysteria". The label keeps their collections open for purchase indefinitely since everything is a made-to-order, one-of-a-kind, with additional customization available. To order this dress on their website with no further customization is US$14,975.
• In the description of the dress on the website they note that it takes 858 hours of hand embroidery to complete this dress.
• The website also notes that their "constellation series has an option to be fully customizable and platinum gold silver or other metallic thread work on any colour base. We take the location and timing of any event, wedding, birthday, anniversary, special night, etc., and fully customize a star map embroidery for the skirt and or cape. Additional emblems, initials, and personal details may be added as well. We typically do placements for 10 PM on the date, so you can look up in the night sky and see your star as above."
• The dress is made out of a netted tulle in a deep coral red carnelian colour.
• Onto that is their signature constellation designs. They use a combination of platinum and crystal seed beads mixed with crystals and the tiniest tube beads.
• The thread work mixes a metallic thread with a matching carnelian coloured thread. The metallic thread used on this one is a muted gold colour. I love how this and heavy embellishment catches the light from every angle.
• The bodice is strapless and inside there is a built-in cupped and wired inner bodice to hold you in place. It is meant to be fitted around the bodice and then cinches in at the waist.
• The skirt falls from under that and there is an incredible amount of fabric in it. Underneath the top layer net  are layers of silk organza and silk Georgette. This keeps it light in weight but gives it incredible movement around you when you move.
• The hand work on this dress is what brings it over the top and commands it's original high price tag at retail. The entire dress has been completely covered in that constellation motif that is so incredibly beautiful.
•  Different astrological signs are embroidered and scattered through the skirt as well as star maps. The application of bead-work sequins and little rhinestones is extremely heavy over the entire dress. It is stunning.
• This is an incredible and very beautiful dress.Every detail is perfection right down to the hand embroidered label.
• It is made to a level that should be considered Demi Couture. 
• The dress is fully lined in a silk georgette with silk organza layers in the skirt as described above. It closes with a hidden set back zipper. The internal corset is made out of stretch lingerie netting and is lightly boned. The corset has its own hooked closure. It appears to have been worn very little at all.
• There is no size tag present since these are made to order. Please go by the measurements below.
