Rare 1920s B Altman Haute Couture Ivory Hand Beaded Cotton Voile Vintage Dress
By B. Altman & Co.
Located in San Diego, CA
Incredible, and rare 20s B. ALTMAN Haute Couture dress! Completely hand sewn, and hand embroidered/beaded. This beauty is nothing short of exceptional! Lightweight semi sheer cotton voile looks great alone, or with a slip under. Attached beaded 'necktie' at bodice. White seed beads in a gridlock pattern scattered throughout the dress, with colorful seed beads in floral designs intertwined. Honestly, this piece belongs in a museum, but is still totally wearable, with only one small repair to one sleeve, which is unnoticeable. The possibilities are endless with this exceptionally rare roaring 20s dress...

Vintage 1940's Saks Fifth Avenue Creme Beaded Chiffon One-Shoulder Bridal Gown
By Saks Fifth Avenue
Located in Beverly Hills, CA
Ethereal late 1940's Saks Fifth Avenue creme goddess gown from the Old Hollywood era of glamour. This stunning silk-chiffon garment has so much couture detail, you can tell it was made with expert devotion. The boned sweetheart plunge bodice is hand-pleated and hand-stitched into place with a unique asymmetric one-shoulder draped train. As pictured, there are a few different ways you can style the sash. Sparkling white glass-beads and sequins, in a gorgeous vine motif, cascade down the front. I love the hourglass nipped-waist which flows into a beautiful full sweep. Truly, this gown would have taken days to finish. A pure work of art and a study in dressmaking technique which reminds me of the famous Jean Desses. Breathtaking and timeless; I totally imagine this gliding down the red carpet! Measurements Bust: 35-36 inches Waist: 27 inches Hips: Swing Sweep Total Length: 57 inches This vintage Saks Fifth Avenue designer gown...

Vintage 1920's B. Altman Couture Metallic-Pink Lamé Ombre Fringe Flapper Dress
By B. Altman & Co.
Located in Beverly Hills, CA
Breathtaking B. Altman Couture metallic silk-lame evening dance dress dating back to the mid 1920's. B. Altman and Company was a luxury department store, founded in 1865 in New York City, by Benjamin Altman. The ethereal pink and gold color palette touches a deep chord in our collective aesthetic consciousness. As fashion lovers, we never tire from antique fabrics; they will always be fresh to modern eyes. I adore the shimmer gold threading around the deco petal motif patterned fabric. The sleeveless bodice has a gorgeous side flower-applique which mirrors the petal print. The colorful enamel belt is masterpiece in itself. My favorite design element is the asymmetric draped ombre silk-fringe that wraps around the whole garment. This detail is very similar to a famous well-documented 1926 Chanel Couture dress...
