The Roaring Twenties was a period of seismic change in women’s fashion. French designers like Coco Chanel, Jean Patou and Jeanne Lanvin introduced revolutionary silhouettes that broke from the corseted ones of the past. The flapper coat was among these styles, and this one made in France during that time is an exquisite reminder of the beauty that was part of the historical shift. The jacket is tailored from gorgeous ivory wool, with a plain weave that takes on unbelievably rich texture when combined with thin and thick strands—including shiny silk ones that form stripes down its length. Along the cuffs and hem, the weave blooms into stylized Art Deco flowers in lovely shades of red, orange, pink, coral, light blue, green, brown and black. Skipped stitches at their centers make for a finely handcrafted peekaboo detail. Trimmed in faux sheepskin fur, this coat is meant to look cozy, with a wrap front that closes with a button most likely made of Bakelite. Wear it with similar pieces to channel the era or mix and match it with modern ones for a truly one-of-a-kind ensemble. Size estimate: XS/S Measurements: Shoulders: 15.5 inches Sleeves: 21 inches Bust: Up to 40 inches Waist: 28 inches (Please note the button can easily be moved over within up to 8 inches to make the coat larger by the waist and hips.) Hips: 37 inches Length: 40 inches This antique flapper...

Encompassing his appeal for international inspiration, YSL blended Eurasian styles with his usual bright color combinations during the Fall/Winter 1989 collection. Mr. Saint Laurent's ability to make globally inspired designs by melding several aesthetics into one beautifully articulated garment is a hallmark of the renowned designer. From the 1989 collection, this ensemble is done in a beautifully detailed silk brocade fabric creating a motif of whimsical butterflies and florals in vibrant colors of orange, yellow-green and cerise on a ground of a serene ocean blue. Lurex threads throughout give this ensemble an added majestic feel. The jacket is constructed in a classic 80s style with squared shoulders and a tapered sleeve. It is tailored nicely though the bodice and gives a nipped waist that is accented by a voluminous peplum that is attached on a slight angle which adds interest to the silhouette and allows for a more flattering fit. The ankle-length skirt is simplified to balance the drama of the top. It has a less structured body which allows for a gentle flouncing. A shocking thigh-high slit on the proper right revealing the exuberant pink lining introduces a dash of sexy shock factor to this ensemble. An excellent vintage ensemble that can be worn true to form or styled separately for a more modern take, this YSL suit...

Synonymous with luxury and innovation, Leonard Paris is collected for its unique prints, like the one found on this dazzling three-piece set from the 1970’s. The kaleidoscopic print has an oriental feel, incorporating flowers such as camellias and chrysanthemums which have traditionally been embroidered on kimonos in Japan. The multiple patterns form a rich canvas for this ensemble, and is a grand example of designer Daniel Tribouillard’s artistry and love of flowers. Done in a black silk jersey, the tunic begins with a high mandarin collar with cloth button closures, bringing some structure to the otherwise lounge-like feel of this set. Falling several inches above the knee, this tunic can easily be worn as a mini-dress, the beautifully draped kimono sleeves adding a flair of drama while allowing for greater ease of movement. The matching ankle-length pants have black piping down the sides and are tailored to perfection with a straight waistband, pockets, and front pleats, ensuring a slender fit. An accompanying belt of the same fabric may be worn tied at the waist, completing the elegant wrap style silhouette of this ensemble. The collar is done in print of small jewel-colored flowers and leaves, bordered by stripes of black, light pink, and magenta. This pattern repeats a second time in a concentric circle below the collar, elongating the neck. A pattern of pink whorls and large pink and black chrysanthemums winds its way through the body of the tunic, punctuated by bursts of blooming flowers with turquoise centers and red stamens, surrounded by clusters of magenta leaves. The kimono style sleeves are done largely in a red honeycomb pattern on a black ground with a small flower set in the center of each hexagon, while a contrasting print of black and pink flowers on a woven ivory ground is set down the side of each sleeve in a narrow band, emphasizing the line from the shoulder. The lower half of the tunic brings balance to the intricate medley of color above the waist, with evenly spaced rows of jewel-colored camellias on a black ground offering a stunning contrast with its use of negative space. A complimentary...

By designing her own prints, Rhodes was able to create looks that are truly unique and reflective of her creative vision. With over 50 years in fashion, Rhodes’s designs have graced many issues of Vogue magazine and have been famously worn by the likes of Princess Diana, Freddie Mercury, and Diana Ross.

Produced by hand in the Zandra Rhodes studio, this gorgeous 1970’s jacket top is a perfect example of Rhodes’s inimitable style. The micro pleated top features an abstract design of squiggles, loops, and lines in tiffany blue, pink, and brown on a saturated red-orange ground. The top begins with a square neckline and ruffled angel sleeves framed by a fabulous sculpted ruffle trim that extends from shoulder to shoulder. The jacket has a relaxed fit and remains elegant throughout with side slits at the waist that allow for greater ease of movement. Each slit is adorned with a beautiful knotted tiffany blue tassel, giving this jacket an oriental feeling that is further enhanced by the single button closure at the front placket.

Delicate and simple detailing elevates many of Prada’s collections. At times questioning the norms or a particular garment style, designer Miuccia Prada has frequently introduces layered ensembles and items reminiscent of lingerie which, according to Vogue, question the notion of seduction. From one of Prada’s mid-2000 collections, this pewter, silk bralette dons a gentle elegance in the detailing and the stitch work. The bra top possesses a generally angular neckline overlapping at the centre front. Across the bust and along the two straps beaded floral motifs with emerald, charcoal, and clear crystal beads that pop against the pewter fabric. At the bust graduated pointed arches are stitched to aestheticize the dart. Just under the bust, a lattice rhinestone and embroidered band sits. The pure emerald stones contrast the grey and clear stones that complement their pewter ground. This top sits high at bust level and can be paired easily with sheer or other layering pieces to construct an understated glam outfit. Size estimate: M Size: 42 IT / 8 US Width at bottom of hem: 28.5 inches and adjustable to 27.5 inches Length: 14 inches Cup size: approximately B/C In excellent condition, this Prada bralette...

Missoni is defined by its impressionist color stories and signature knit designs. The designs speak to the idea of simplicity with the value always being in the fine details. Done in a silky rayon crochet knit, this 1970s Missoni ensemble is made from gradients of dusty rose, blue-grey, pale yellow, and gold to create an overall warm, beachy feeling dress set. The cardigan drapes from a rounded neckline into elbow length sleeves. The undulating drape compliments the wave-like ribs in the fabric. A rather boxy silhouette, the softness of the drape and the movement of the colors give it a lighter feel. Underneath, the dress showcases a more textured, horizontal knit design that adds dimension and movement to the ensemble. The dress hugs the figure from the torso through the hips and from a dropped waistline falls into a straight maxi skirt. The fun doesn’t stop there. This ensemble also features a matching beret done in the same wavy knit style as the dress bodice and necklace made from a rope of the fabric threaded through circular carnelian beads.

The sisters notably designed several costumes for the Oscar-winning film Black Swan, and have won many prestigious awards including the Swiss Textiles Award, a CFDA, and a Domani Fashion Award.

As seen as look number 24 on that season’s runway and in the featured images taken by British fashion photographer Tim Walker, this dainty, fairytale-esque dress is a feat of craftsmanship and imagination. Done in lace, net, and marabou feather trim, the dress features several risqué elements and is embellished with hand appliqued beads and sequins. The sheer lace sleeves, hem of the skirt, and half of the neckline and bodice are trimmed in crème marabou feathers, offering a nice contrast of texture while lending the dress a dramatic sophistication.
