Schiaparelli Accessories

French

From her signature color Shocking Pink to her collaborations with Surrealist artists, the boldly original Elsa Schiaparelli transformed fashion with her haute couture house from the late 1920s to the early ’50s. Experimenting with elements like trompe l’oeil images and colorful visible zippers, the Italian designer instilled a provocative avant-garde artistry in her clothing and accessories, including those created with Salvador Dalí, such as the lobster dress and a hat shaped like a shoe.

Born in Rome, Schiaparelli was a rebellious child who grew up among the city’s intellectual elite. She had a voracious appetite for reading and became interested in ancient cultures, astronomy and world religions. Schiaparelli studied philosophy at the University of Rome, and after publishing a collection of poems on love and sensuality that so mortified her conservative parents that they tried, unsuccessfully, to confine her to a Swiss convent, she left for London.

A quick marriage to Count Wilhelm de Wendt de Kerlor brought her to New York, but it would be in Paris following her divorce that Schiaparelli embraced her artistic passions. She moved to the French capital city in 1922 with her young daughter and happened to meet master couturier Paul Poiret, who loaned the stylish Schiaparelli his clothes, sparking her own fashion interests.

Schiaparelli opened her modest atelier in Paris and debuted her first collection of knitwear in 1927, and later that year, she designed a black-and-white pullover hand-knit wool sweater featuring a trompe l’oeil bowknot that captured the attention of the fashion world. Vogue called it “an artistic masterpiece.” The success led to her moving her house to 21 Place Vendôme in 1935 where thousands of garments were produced each year.

Schiaparelli’s knitwear collections were later accompanied by revolutionary swimsuits and other clothing and accessories. Her inventive designs would include culottes — a radical statement in the 1930s when women still could cause a scandal by wearing pants — as well as printed fabric, such as the 1938 Tears dress with a print designed by Dalí making it appear as if the evening gown had been savagely ripped.

Schiaparelli was among the first designers to use materials like rayon and Lurex as well as explore wrap dresses and transparent raincoats. She also introduced unisex fragrances and brought her artistic partnerships into jewelry, such as bronze brooches made with Alberto Giacometti and fur-lined bracelets with Méret Oppenheim. As she wrote in her 1954 autobiography Shocking Life, women should “dare to be different.”

Despite her acclaim, her shop closed in 1954 after a tumultuous time during World War II. By then, fashion had moved on with Christian Dior's New Look, and the closure of Schiaparelli's business coincided with a comeback mounted by Coco Chanel, her archrival in the early days.

In 2006, Italian businessman Diego Della Valle acquired the brand and its archives, and the Maison Schiaparelli was reopened in 2012, back at 21 Place Vendôme where Schiaparelli's fearless and enduring work began.

1950s Schiaparelli Paris Velour Cocktail Hat - Feather Pom and Rhinestone Trim

By Schiaparelli, Elsa Schiaparelli

Located in North Attleboro, MA

Chic, sculptural, and unmistakably Schiaparelli, this vintage Paris cocktail hat delivers the witty drama the house is known for. This vintage Schiaparelli Paris cocktail hat is a standout example of midcentury millinery design. Crafted in warm cinnamon-brown velour felt, the hat features a structured oval crown wrapped in contrasting velvet bands of burnt orange and deep brown. A dramatic feather pom accents the top, paired with a soft feather spray and a rhinestone flourish for a subtle spark of glamour. The feathers remain present and secure, though the plumage has naturally softened and lost some of its original downy texture over time. This is typical for midcentury millinery. The top of the velour crown shows several small areas of surface nap loss consistent with light moth grazing. These spots are cosmetic, stable, and do not affect the hat’s structure or wearability. Designed to sit at a flattering angle, the hat embodies the sculptural whimsy and bold elegance that define Schiaparelli’s millinery. Details • Designer: Schiaparelli Paris • Era: 1950s • Materials: Velour felt, velvet banding, feathers, rhinestones • Color: Cinnamon brown, rust, deep brown • Style: Percher / cocktail hat • Size: Marked 22 (U.S. sizing), equivalent to approximately 56 cm in European sizing. Suitable for a standard women’s medium fit. • Condition: Very good vintage condition. Feathers intact with age-related softening. Several small areas of surface nap loss to the velour crown consistent with light moth grazing. Structure and trim remain strong. A collectible, personality-filled example of Schiaparelli’s couture...

Located in London, GB

BRAND NEW with box Mugler x H&M Limited Edition Black Leather Ankle Boots Size US 8.5 / EU 41 / UK 7.5 AT THE TIME OF LISTING, THIS PIECE IS ALSO AVAILABLE IN OTHER SIZES ON OUR STOREFRONT These beautiful Mugler x H&M black ankle boots are the only footwear design created for the exclusive Limited Edition 2023 Mugler x H&M collaboration, a capsule that sold out worldwide within 20 minutes of its release. They stand as one of the defining pieces of the collection, embodying Mugler’s sculptural aesthetic and the collaboration’s archival inspiration. In Mugler’s late 1970s - early 1980s collections, the house collaborated exclusively with Maud Frizon, one of the most influential shoe designers of the period. Many pieces from the H&M capsule were derived from the archives and re-invented for this modern reissue, making these boots a particularly significant collectible. Although officially part of the men’s collection, these boots are a unisex classic statement piece and integrate seamlessly into any wardrobe. Constructed in supple black leather with glossy patent contrast, they feature a pointed toe, offset block heel, and a side zipper closure with silver-toned hardware and a Mugler-branded pull tab. DETAILS COLOUR: Black leather & patent leather Upper: 100% Leather Lining: 100% Leather Sole: 100% Polyurethane Heel Height: 4.5 cm Closure: Side zip with Mugler-branded pull Marked Size: US 8.5 / EU 41 / UK 7.5 Approx.

Nearly every piece sold out within 20 minutes, and this pair, as the only footwear produced for the collection, holds a special place in the collaboration’s history. Drawing inspiration from archival Mugler designs and Maud Frizon’s influential footwear collaborations, these boots represent Mugler’s futuristic silhouette reimagined for the contemporary era under Casey Cadwallader. While not runway-documented to a Mugler couture collection, this piece is entirely consistent with Cadwallader’s modern Mugler aesthetic, defined by architectural lines, futuristic silhouettes, and unisex appeal. Released only in limited numbers as part of the short-lived collaboration, these boots are now increasingly difficult to source in this brand new condition. CONDITION Brand New with box - Excellent No major scuffs, creases, or defects. Original soles intact.

Follow our storefront for new listings updated weekly. MANFRED THIERRY MUGLER (21 December 1948 – 23 January 2022) A French fashion designer, creative director and creative adviser of Mugler. In the 1970s, Mugler launched his eponymous fashion house; and quickly rose to prominence in the following decades for his avant-garde architectural, hyperfeminine and theatrical approach to haute couture. He was one of the first designers to champion diversity in his runway shows, which often tackled racism and ageism, and incorporated non-traditional models such as drag queens, pornstars, and transgender women. In 2002, he retired from the brand, and returned in 2013 as the creative adviser. At the beginning of his career he designed signature looks for Michael Jackson, Madonna, Grace Jones, Duran Duran, Viktor Lazlo, David Bowie and Diana Ross; most notably Demi Moore's dress from the 1993 movie Indecent Proposal, which was once coined "the most famous dress of the 1990s". In 1992, he directed and designed the outfits for George Michael's "Too Funky" music video; also that year he launched the perfume Angel, which became one of the best-selling perfumes of the 20th century. Mugler's fall 1995 haute couture collection, marking the 20th anniversary of his brand, was staged at the Cirque d’Hiver venue in Paris; and has been referred to as the "Woodstock of Fashion", for having over 300 designed looks, an elaborate set design, dozens of high-profile supermodels and a performance from James Brown. He also designed costumes for Beyoncé's I Am... World Tour, and created a one-off design for Kim Kardashian to wear to the 2019 Met Gala. At the age of 24, Mugler moved to Paris. He began designing clothes for Gudule, a Parisian boutique. At 26, he began to design for a variety of large ready-to-wear fashion houses in Paris, Milan, London and Barcelona. In 1971, he began designing clothes for Karim, already showing the broad-shouldered, 1940s-derived looks he would become famous for in later years. In 1972, his full-skirted raincoat became a hit. In 1973, Mugler created his first personal collection called "Café de Paris". The style of the collection was both sophisticated and urban. Melka Tréanton, a powerful fashion editor, helped to launch his career. In 1976, she asked him to show his work in Tokyo for an event organized by Shiseido. The 1977 showing of his spring 1978 line displayed a punk influence. In 1978, he opened his first Paris boutique at the Place des Victoires in the 1er Arrondissement and rapidly gained attention as among the most extreme of the Fall 1978 broad-shoulder brigade of designers, with a penchant for mid-20th-century sci-fi themes and exaggerated 1940s-50s-style glamour marked by sharply constructed tailoring At the same time, Mugler launched a fashion collection for men. He would continue into the following decade with his 1940s-style shoulders on 1950s-tailored suits amid retrograde Wagnerian showmanship. During the 1980s and 1990s Mugler became an internationally recognized designer, often grouped with his friends Claude Montana and Azzedine Alaïa but known especially for his shapely suits, and his collections garnered much commercial success. Except for a couple of sedate salon presentations in 1986 and 1987 (when he also reduced his shoulder padding), his fashion shows were extravagant affairs held in arena-like environments and the collections associated with them had themes, sci-fi and cavewoman themes in the late seventies, celestial themes later, a 60s theme one season, an Africa theme another, a vampire-devil theme the next, and an aquatic theme the next, with ongoing creative motifs that would span multiple collections, like his late-eighties inclusion of garments and accessories modelled after the tailfins and chrome trim of 1950s U.S. automobiles most recognisably 1959 Cadillacs At the request of the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture, he completed his first haute couture collection in 1992. He designed the dresses of Viktor Lazlo for hosting Eurovision 1987. He created the black dress worn by Demi Moore in the 1993 movie Indecent Proposal. Mugler also directed short films, advertising films and video clips. He regularly designed costumes for musical comedies, concerts, operas, and the theatre (including Macbeth for the Comédie Française). He worked with Robert Altman and George Michael (he directed the video for Michael's "Too Funky" in 1992). He also directed the first advertising film for one of his fragrances, Alien. Mugler left fashion in 2002. In 2002, Mugler collaborated with the Cirque du Soleil. He directed "Extravaganza", one of the scenes of Zumanity, and created all of the costumes and the identity of the characters in the show. In 2008, the Mugler brand launched Thierry Mugler Beauty, a high-end line of cosmetics. In 2009, Mugler worked as artistic advisor to singer Beyoncé. He created the costumes for her "I Am... World Tour". In September 2010, Nicola Formichetti was announced to be the Creative Director of the Thierry Mugler brand. He changed the brand name to MUGLER, removing the first name, and in January 2011, he launched the revival of the brand's menswear collection in collaboration with Romain Kremer. In December 2013, House of Mugler announced David Koma as the artistic director. In 2016, Mugler created and directed the music video and staging for San Marino's Eurovision Song Contest entry "I Didn't Know" performed by Turkish singer Serhat. Despite retiring from his brand in 2003, he made the exception to design under his name "House of Mugler" for the Met Gala in 2019 and for Kim Kardashian. Getting his inspiration from Sophia Loren in the film Boy on a Dolphin, Mugler envisioned a wet California girl; hence the creation of the "wet couture dress". The American designer Casey Cadwallader was named Mugler's new creative director in December 2017. During the period of the pandemic, Mugler skipped runways for video shows that were co-created with DIS magazine's spin-off, Torso Solutions. Megan Thee Stallion, Chloe Sevigny, Bella Hadid, and Eartheater were featured in the Mugler Spring 2022 Ready-to-Wear Collection video which ended with a brief homage to the late Mugler. The homage was dancing feature by prima ballerina Maria Kochetkova and vogueing superstar Barbie Swaee. After an almost three-year hiatus from runway shows, Mugler returned to an in-person show in Paris FW 2023. The runway featured models Adut Akech, Paloma Elsesser...

    Yes, Schiaparelli is a luxury brand. Originally, the fashion house founded by Elsa Schiaparelli in 1927 specialized in avant-garde custom designs but shifted to primarily producing ready-to-wear apparel in 2007.

    Schiaparelli was among the first designers to use materials like rayon and Lurex as well as explore wrap dresses and transparent raincoats.
