Synonymous with luxury and innovation, Léonard Paris is known for their silk jersey dresses and signature orchid prints. Referring to himself as “... a couturier with a sense of marketing,” Daniel Tribouillard was originally inspired to create floral prints to contrast the popular geometric designs of Emilio Pucci. The unique success of what began as an astute business decision became a genuine romance, the prints taking precedence over the style of the garments themselves, almost always incorporating flowers, which, as Tribouillard said himself, “Léonardizes” a design. From the 1990’s, this fabulous dress is done in Leonard’s signature silk jersey and sheer floral lace. The beautiful material features a print of large flowers in shades of light pink, magenta, red, grey, and lavender on a black ground. The print is interspersed throughout with large mint green leaves and white and black flowers that complement the black lace inset...

From as early as the late 1910s, the trend of Orientalism was all the rage in the Western fashion scene. With various styles, the mid-to-late 1920s saw the rise in the popularity of chinoiserie blue derived from the artistic decorations of Chinese porcelains. This rich color trend graced the designs of haute couture designers such as Lucien Lelong and became widely available to the upper-class masses. From the former San Francisco based department store, I. Magnin, this 1930s evening cape is a vintage treasure that captures its time. Done in a rich blue silk velvet, the cape is multi-tiered coming down to knee level with two heavily flounced tiers that encircle the torso that cover the arms acting as sleeves. The sumptuous layering of the silk velvet pairs with a mock shawl collar that creates a regal aura to this design. This cape is an excellent vintage outerwear...

From the Tom Ford era at YSL, the Mombasa was the coveted iconic it bag of the early 2000s. Advertised as the must-have spring accessory in the New York Times, the Mombasa sold out as soon as it hit stores in 2001. Named after a seaport in Kenya, the bag’s signature is its horn handle, which gives it a tribal feel. “What bamboo is to Gucci, the horn is now to Saint Laurent,” said Tom Ford of the wildly successful bag. Reimagined season after season in different colors and fabrics ranging from velvet to python, the Mombasa continues to be a highly collectible archival YSL design. This beautiful Mombasa bag is a special edition produced in limited quantity and designed in luxurious exotic Ostrich leather exclusively for Neiman Marcus, and retailed for $3695. features a mesmerizing pattern of overlapping gold and bronze half-circles.

Best known for his high-end, feminine silhouettes, French haute couture designer Hubert de Givenchy rose to international acclaim during the 1960s by creating signature looks for actress Audrey Hepburn. Maintaining a classic romantic elegance to his designs, Givenchy began experimenting with bolder colors and pattern options around the 1980s. Done in a vibrant magenta silk organza, this couture dress was custom made at the Givenchy atelier in Paris. The dress features an incredible cascade of ruffles at each shoulder and a subtle chevron pattern done in alternating rows of smooth silk and basket woven silk. The woven silk provides contrast and texture while the chevron pattern itself creates a pleasing rhythm throughout. The bodice begins with a flattering bateau neckline framed by short sleeves comprised of layers of wide, undulating ruffles. The ruffles are adorned at each shoulder with a large knotted bow for extra flair and femininity that flows seamlessly with the rest of the fabric. The bows are set slightly behind the high front ruffle on each shoulder, making them easy to miss at first glance, but delightful when seen from the side profile or back of the dress. The basket woven silk provides a sheer element to the ruffles that is further enhanced by the lower cut bodice at the back of the dress. Size estimate: Small/Medium Bust: 32 inches Waist: 30 inches Hips: 37 inches Length: 55 inches The bodice is finished with princess seams that reach from the bust to hip, complimenting the subtle A-line silhouette of this dress. The skirt falls to a maxi-length just above the ankles in a straight hem that is semi-formal and perfect for showcasing a beautiful pair of heels. Sophisticated and feminine, this dress is the perfect choice for a summer wedding, gala, or special occasion. This custom-couture Givenchy...

Stefano Pilato served as the creative director at Yves Saint Laurent from 2004-2012 following Tom Ford’s departure. Credited with starting the tulip skirt trend in the 2000s, Pilato’s fluid aesthetic was markedly different from Ford’s, and he often received acclaim for his youthful designs. Pilato’s Spring 2012 collection was his second to last for YSL, and featured ruffles and peplums alongside godet skirts and cape dresses. As seen on that season’s runway, this beautiful dress is a major design by Pilato and was featured in Harper’s Bazaar on Mila Kunis...

Red, baring and slinky, this Dolce & Gabbana minidress is designed to command attention. When it debuted in the spring/summer 2003 runway show on supermodel Gisele Bündchen, it led Vogue’s Sarah Mower to write, “power-womanhood is not extinct on planet Fashion.” And when Steven Meisel focused his lens on it for the season’s ad campaign, it became iconic—and highly collectible. Cut from a luxurious stretch viscose jersey, this LRD is crafted to drape beautifully on the body and accentuate its every move. Rather than hug every curve, it has an easy blouson top (that is even more full at the back) to leave more to the imagination and to balance the revealing deep V at its sides and the short skirt. Coordinating spaghetti straps and drawstrings funneled through a middle panel of the dress allow the wear to customize the fit and length. Wear the piece without or with the stunning ruched arm bands...

Jean Paul Gaultier’s designs always have a particular erotic drama to them. From his cone-bra corset designed for Madonna, Gaultier tends to create garments that convey an apocalyptic, deconstructionist aesthetic. Gaultier has a number of lines ranging from haute couture to childrenswear. His unapologetic styles dash his clothing with a hint of avant-garde but is what makes him so popular amongst bold celebrities such as Rihanna and Gaga. Reflective of Gaultier’s signature aesthetic this ca. 2000 skirt is made from a combination of blush rib-knit cotton and a faded pink, silk crinkle chiffon. The rib-knit forms the skirt yoke to which the chiffon is attached in jagged arches at hip level. A warped waistline questions the finesse of the dress that is contrasted by the chandelier draping of the skirts handkerchief hem which is finished by the chiffon being tied into knots. This Gaultier design is eerie as it conveys a delicate yet distressed sentiment. Size estimate: S Measurements: Waist: 27 inches Hips: 36 inches Length: 33 inches to 44 inches at the bottom of the knot. This cotton knit, and silk chiffon skirt is fitted throughout the hip and releases into a bohemian fluidity. It is unlined and rests at hip level and the waistline is lined with an elastic to stabilize the knit and to secure the skirt to the body. The skirt can be slipped over the head or simply stepped into. Professionally cleaned and pressed, this JPG skirt...

First introduced in the 1960s, the intrecciato (technique of weaving the leather) weave style became the iconic hallmark of Bottega Veneta leather goods—and eventually so much more. Starting out as a ready-to-wear brand, the intrecciato pattern was a happy accident that allowed for the house to introduce sturdy leather accessories without upgrading to expensive equipment. The design is rather simple but is instantly recognizable as the essence of Bottega Veneta. Done in a buttery chestnut colored leather the exterior of this clutch dons the iconic Bottega weave...

Moschino, the Italian fashion house, is known for their whimsical and eccentric designs. Princess Diana memorably wore a red and black houndstooth suit by Moschino on three occasions in the 90’s, which later inspired a similar look worn by Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge. With a desire to pay homage to some of Moschino’s most iconic looks, creative director Rossella Jardini reproduced a selection of original designs done to more modern proportions for Moschino’s Spring/Summer 2010 collection, made with a special “Archivo Moschino” tags to mark the occasion. From that collection, this black leather and gold chain jacket...

From that collection, this clear Miu Miu choker...
