1960s Tiziani Karl Lagerfeld Dress

About the Item

This is a rare and very collectible vintage find; it is among the earliest examples of Karl Lagerfeld’s legendary work. Lagerfeld designed it in the late-Sixties for House of Tiziani, where he would begin exploring the idea of luxury ready-to-wear—at that time, a groundbreaking concept—that would later define his career at Chloé and Chanel. This dress is as impeccable today as it was 50 years ago. The fabric is a black linen with ecru linen piping trimming the neck sleeves and hemline. I love the beautiful embroidery work on the skirt portion with a pineapple floral motif. This dress is fully lined in a sheer gauzy black silk. Tiziani was founded in 1963, by American designer Evans Richards who hired Karl Lagerfeld as his fellow couturier in the firm. The Tiziani label was a favorite of Elizabeth Taylor, and she can be seen in many of her films wearing custom Tiziani creations.
