Vintage Dress Mannequin

At 1stDibs, there are many versions of the ideal vintage dress mannequin for your home. A vintage dress mannequin — often made from metal, wood and fabric — can elevate any home. Your living room may not be complete without a vintage dress mannequin — find older editions for sale from the 19th Century and newer versions made as recently as the 20th Century. When you’re browsing for the right vintage dress mannequin, those designed in Victorian, Art Deco and mid-century modern styles are of considerable interest. Many designers have produced at least one well-made vintage dress mannequin over the years, but those crafted by Yves Saint Laurent, Mark Shaw and Oscar De La Renta are often thought to be among the most beautiful.

The average selling price for a vintage dress mannequin at 1stDibs is $695, while they’re typically $150 on the low end and $245,500 for the highest priced.

From museum-worthy vintage Oscar de la Renta evening dresses and jackets to audacious T-shirts and trousers from provocative punk designer Vivienne Westwood, one thing is abundantly clear: If the clothing available on 1stDibs could talk, it would certainly make a statement. 

For fashion lovers, the 1990s have become associated with styles adopted by today’s supermodels and influencers — think Galliano and Cavalli — but maybe ‘80s accessories are among your (guilty?) pleasures. Playful, boldly colored coats and outerwear from Moschino and other titans of the era can take a simpler ensemble to the next level, while chic and practical suits from the likes of Christian Dior and Chanel remain classic for haute couture advocates and beyond. By exploring the vast array of vintage collections on these pages, you can transform your closet into a retreat that is as retro as it is royal. 

Velvet cocktail dresses and silk evening gowns designed by French-born American couturiere Pauline Trigère — who dressed Wallis Simpson, the Duchess of Windsor — have proven timeless since their mid-century debut, while an overcoat by Alexander McQueen is the perfect finishing touch. In fact, an emerald one stays in rotation for Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge.

Those seeking modern high-fashion brands are also in luck. Turn your day-to-day into a runway with selections from Dolce & Gabbana, Yves Saint Laurent and Versace or complete that fresh look with stunning footwear classics from the likes of Gucci and Christian Louboutin. The future — and glamorous past — of fashion is yours for the wearing.
