Vintage 1940's Ceil Chapman Windowpane Print White Cotton Peplum Full-Skirt Gown
About the Item
This is such a stunning and ethereal Ceil Chapman full-length garden gown dating back to the mid 1940's. Perfect for any upcoming wedding or daytime party; you can't help but feel feminine in this beauty! The garment is fashioned from mid-weight white cotton with a complex, sensational dark midnight blue windowpane graphic motif. I love how the pattern placement matches up perfectly to really flatter the figure. The cap-sleeve wide neckline fitted nipped waist bodice is met by an impressive sculpted peplum. A voluminous full-length skirt finishes the garden gown off with a perfect Old Hollywood vibe. The construction is so fresh and modern yet also still has a timeless quality. Ceil Chapman is often said to be Marilyn Monroe's favorite designer and I can totally see why. This stunning piece of fashion history would make an unforgettable look for any modern event.

- Vintage 1978 Lanvin Couture Black Sheer Silk & Stripe Velvet Billow-Sleeve GownBy Lanvin ParisLocated in Beverly Hills, CAThis extremely gorgeous Lanvin Couture sheer silk chiffon dress from their 1978 fall-winter collection is a statement piece. I love the beautiful bohemian chic vibe mixed with an elegant refinement. The striped velvet trim adds the perfect amount of color to the garment. The bodice has a stunning ruffle collar with dramatic billow-sleeves. Shaped with an elastic band, the figure flattering cut adds a sophisticated blousy nature while still showcasing your waistline. Under the direction of Jules Francois-Crahay, Lanvin was a playground for imagination. This vibrant primary hues is the perfect example of this. Lanvin may be the oldest fashion house in Paris, but it has also managed to remain one of the most relevant. Through many years and many designers, it has stayed true to the vision of its founder, Madame Jeanne...Category

- Vintage 1960's Gene Shelly Chartreuse Yellow Sequin Beaded Knit Cocktail DressBy Gene Shelley International Boutique, Gene ShelleyLocated in Beverly Hills, CAMid-century Gene Shelly designer garments are in a class of their own. They are always fully-sequined by hand and fit to flatter the figure. This early 1960's treasure has a fantastic abstract-deco design worked in, featuring iridescent-beadwork. The base is an ultra-soft chartreuse yellow wool-knit and the sequin work is done in the same hue. Just look at the detail pictures! Though the hourglass fit is rather seductive, the 3/4-length sleeves give it a balanced elegance that Gene Shelly is known for. I love the nipped-waist belted hourglass wiggle skirt! This is the type of garment celebrity vixens, like Marilyn Monroe, made infamous. Extraordinary and a rare find to be in such pristine condition. Measurements (The knit will allow stretch so you can safely add two inches to the below measurements) Bust: 34 inches Waist: 28 inches Hips: 36 inches Sleeve Length: 19 inches Total Length: 42 inches This vintage Gene...Category
