Agent Provocateur 1990s BlackLaceSet LingerieLike BikiniHalterTop & Short Shorts

About the Item

Vivienne Westwood's son Joe Corre opened the first lingerie boutique for his sexy London-based brand Agent Provocateur in Soho in the mid-1990s, when the sole owner of this black lace-overlay and lace-trimmed swimwear set acquired it. While lingerie-like, it is ideal for wearing under today's fashionable transparent clothing, while it can double as hot-weather sportswear given its soft synthetic grey underlayer that was designed for swimming. Although the top is marked U.K.-size "S" and the other tags were removed from the bottoms, the pair will fit up to a U.S.-size 8 given the boy-brief style low-rise stretch shorts and the adjustable string-tied halter-shaped bra. Notably, the top has a complex construction with two kinds of lace and unusual angles, couching, bands and darts, which enables it to enhance a small chest or accommodate a large one. More so, the bottoms of the shorts are trimmed entirely around the legs in lace rather than along the waist, which has an elongating effect when worn with the top whose trim is along the bust.

  • 1991 RunwayLook1 KatharineHamnett IridescentGreen FeltedCollar Fitted Skirt Suit
    By Katharine Hamnett
    Located in Chicago, IL
    For the Spring/Summer 1991 made-in-Italy collection of her eponymous London-based brand, Katharine Hamnett debuted this fitted elongated jacket skirt-suit as "Look 1" in her fashion show (see our photo of the video coverage). Her working-woman styled model was unexpectedly accompanied by a male model adorned in a cowboy hat, which suggests her power over a strong man. In a different color without metallic accents, this sleek three-button single-breasted lined jacket is paired with a matching seafoam-green tucked skirt with back slit. Immediately apparent based on the seven piped princess seams around the torso, the jacket is expertly tailored like Savile-Row menswear. It also has a speckled-grey felted collar, piped front pockets, and triple-buttonhole split sleeves. The skirt closes in back with a center zip with hook-and-eye fastening. The durable cotton-blend fabric, which is in excellent condition, is notable for its slight iridescence with a soft luster that links it to the reflective elements that dominated that colorful collection by Hamnett. We included photos of the suit lit by sunlight with yellow tones and in lighting with...
