Emanuel Ungaro Draped Knotted Cut-Out Cocktail Dress, Circa 1985
About the Item
Designed more than thirty years ago, this 80's Ungaro Parallèle cocktail dress is still furiously trendy ! Made from taupe brown soft wool, it is artfully draped and knotted for a body-contouring fit. The gathered bodice turns to reveal a sexy twisted cut-out back, while the asymmetric hem (wrap-effect style) is split to reveal a flash of leg. The dress fastens with a concealed zip, hook and eye on the left side. The size tag is missing. As the fabric is a bit stretchy, the dress will accommodate the next size up. Made in Italy.
Remark : picture n° 19 shows the French actress Anouk Aimée photographed by Helmut Newton for the Ungaro Parallèle ADV campaign in another version of this dress, but with the same fabric and design at the shoulders.
Fits approx. : US 2-6 / FR 36-38
This item has been professionally cleaned, pressed & carefully inspected by a couture-trained seamstress before being sold.

1980s Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche silk floral wrap dress
By Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche
Located in CULEMBORG, GE
This figure flattering, silk, wrap-dress by Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche from 1980* has a beautiful multicolor floral print. The pink, orange and purple flowers surrounded by green leafs are set on a black ground. At the neck, there is an interior tie to close up above the bust. The inside is lined around the shoulders and it comes with a matching sash stitched on the back. Taking a closer look at the Jabot-style collar and ruffled sleeves covered in pink and orange stripes it shows how beautifully constructed Yves Saint Laurent's ready-to-wear items where made. The vivid colors and combination of stripes and flowers give the all together look a funky Parisienne touch: feminine, but rather cool with a touch of romance.
The indicated size FR 38 corresponds to a contemporary size S but because of the two strategic placed hooks at the waist it is possible to adjust this dress and therefore it would also fit a size M (FR40).
Item measurements (lying flat):
Size: FR 38
Shoulders: 50 cm (sleeves incl.)
Sleeves: 64 cm (from shoulder)
Bust: 45 cm
Waist: 35 up to 40 cm
Hips: up to 60 cm
Length: 100 cm up to 110 cm (back)
Model Nieve wears a size S with a 1.80 meter length.
All items I sell are being professionally cleaned, pressed and are odor free.
