This swirling silk maxi-skirt was designed by John Galliano in his early-2000s heyday and needs no introduction. Crafted from sheer gossamer silk with silk godet panels around the hem to create fullness and movement. The panels are alternatingly patterned with a zebra hide design and the designer’s iconic newspaper print. Tailored to a high-waist cut, the waistband is secured with delicate fabric-covered buttons and fabric loops along the left hip. It is hemmed with a sheer white tulle trim and fully lined with off-white silk crepe; there are three layers overall. The nude, soft plastic brand label is present in the top of the waistband and the collection is spring / summer 2005. Labelled a UK 8 or US 2 and true to size. This sought-after piece is in excellent vintage condition with no issues of any note and worthy of the phrase 'archival vintage'. Our model (5ft 4in / 163cm) is a size UK 6-8 and this fit her well. Putting his stamp on a pattern that has a century-long fashion history, Galliano launched his newspaper print for Christian Dior’s Spring 2000 Couture collection and it has had notable repeats since. As both Dior and his own label were owned by the luxury conglomerate LVMH, Galliano was able to transpose designs between the two fashion houses. Galliano pieces from pre 2010 were made in the same factory as the ready to wear Dior collections so you can expect the same quality and finish across this skirt as on those earlier, highly collectable Galliano-for-Dior pieces. Bonhams recently sold an original Dior newsprint dress...

This is a late 1970s or early 1980s ensemble by Caroline Charles, a well-known designer on the London circuit who has made beautiful formal wear and fine quality day clothes since the 1960s. This cotton suit is made up of a triple tiered skirt, belt and blouse and reminds of the 'peasant chic' look that Yves Saint Laurent was designing in the late 70s as part of his Ballet Russes collection. The blouse is high-necked with neat puff shoulders and tapered, gathered cuffs. The blouse is not lined whilst the skirt is fully lined in black cotton. The original wide fabric belt is retained, and we would suggest the blouse could be tucked into the skirt but also be fastened over the top and cinched in with the fabric belt. In very good vintage condition overall; the blouse appears to have been worn more than the skirt, which together with the belt, are in excellent condition. The skirt and blouse are labelled Caroline Charles and marked UK size 10. This is best suited in modern sizing to UK size 6-8, US size 2-4 on account of the waist measurements for the skirt, although the top could be worn by a size bigger. Notes on Designer: Caroline Charles began her design career after a couture appenticeship and a stint at Mary Quant. She was a founding designer at London Fashion Week and during the swinging 60s, her collections were worn by Lulu, Marianne Faithful and Cilla Black...
