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...

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...

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...

Tom Ford took over as the creative director for Yves Saint Laurent from 1999 to 2004. Ford, like Saint Laurent, is noted for a hyper-progressive vision that tends to bring multiple layers to his design work. For Ford, this frequently manifests as an underlying or overt layer of sensuality. The 2004 Fall/Winter collection was Ford’s last for YSL, and featured a gorgeous array of Oriental inspired designs in jewel tones with fur accents. Featured in looks 18 & 20 on that season’s runway, these exquisite over-the-knee boots are the most memorable and coveted boots from the Tom Ford YSL era. Done in black silk, the boots have an undeniable sensual allure and are embroidered with large red-crowned cranes and fuzzy pink cherry blossoms that spiral around each leg. Cranes symbolize peace and prosperity, while cherry blossoms herald the arrival of Spring, indicating hope and renewal. A small pool of blue water is embroidered at the front of each ankle, adding a nice pop of color that defines the leg and draws the eye upward. Size: 35.5 FR 5.5 US The boots have beautiful sculpted red lacquer wedge heels and are finished with a half circle of metallic gold piping on each side of the shoe’s vamp. An incredible addition to the discerning fashion lover’s wardrobe, these showstopping, statement boots are wearable works of art that will elevate any elegant little black dress or chic ensemble you choose to style them with. These YSL Tom Ford boots...

Azzedine Alaïa was notably one of the most talented designers of his day. Having cut his teeth working for Thierry Mugler and Dior, Alaïa himself designed garments with immaculate fit and a sexy yet romantic flair. From his Spring 2000 collection, the gored maxi skirt is made from a viscose blend black chenille fabric. Following the vertical seams, the skirt has been embroidered with green vines that whimsically move towards the hem blossoming into flowers of daisy white and poppy red. Sitting low on the waist, this skirt has an overall straight silhouette finishing however with a full sweeping hem. Here, each panel has a slight scallop that gives the skirt additional interest in motion. The folksy skirt is effortlessly beautiful and is perfect for a casual affair or an adventure on the town! Included here is an editorial shot of the pink version of the skirt photographed by Gilles Bensimon...
