About the Item

Circa 1955-1960 Spain Black silk faille evening coat by Pedro Rodriguez, a famous Spanish couturier, dating from the late 1950s. A full, flared coat with a remarkable cut at the back, in keeping with the work of famous couturiers of the same period, including Cristobal Balenciaga and Yves Saint Laurent. Skilful assembly of sleeves with oval yokes at the shoulders and large flaps for the sleeves tipped back. The collar is darted at the top and flat-pleated at the shoulders. No lining and label indicating Pedro Rodriguez Madrid Barcelona S. Sebastian. No flaws, black silk with a nice hold that allows for puffy effects. No holes or stains. Good condition in terms of colour and conservation. Dimensions: French size 42-44. Height 116 cm, shoulders 36 cm, sleeves 37-40 cm, chest 110 cm, waist 105 cm, amplitude at the bottom of the coat 158 cm. Pedro Rodríguez opened his fashion house in Barcelona in 1919. He was the first in Spain to follow the guidelines of the professional haute couture association in Paris: to present complete collections on live mannequins in their own elegantly decorated showrooms, made entirely in their own workshops. In 1940, he was one of the instigators of the Barcelona haute couture cooperative and held the position of president until his death. He was also one of the people responsible for promoting Spanish fashion around the world in the years that followed

By Lucien Lelong
Located in Toulon, FR
Circa 1937 France for Export United States or England Long evening coat in black silk velvet, scarf to tie on the collar closed by two large rhinestone buttons, duchesse satin lining, Labelled Reproduction Lucien Lelong, Paris. This is a license model for export to England or the United States. Some very slight damage to the satin lining at the claw and collar, otherwise clean and flawless. Very good condition of color and conservation. Dimensions: equivalent size 38 France. Height 128 cm, shoulders 38 cm, collar 41 cm, chest 90 cm, waist 84 cm. Lucien Lelong (1889-1958) is a key figure in the history of French haute couture. He designed his first collection in 1914 and took over the family business in 1919 to become successful in the 1920s. In 1934 he launched the first ready-to-wear collection under the label "Edition". Installed at 16 avenue Matignon in Paris, he created in 1925 the "kinetic" silhouette, i.e. a supple, modern, dynamic line. He was the first to imagine, a decade later, the luxury ready-to-wear and to think of the unity of a production from clothing to accessories and perfumes, considering fashion as much in its aesthetic dimension, as in its industrial and commercial dimension. That same year, he made his first trip to the United States. President of the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture from 1937 to 1945, he trained Christian Dior, Robert Piguet...
