1920's Iridescent Ivory & Gold Beaded Sequin Sheer-Net Deco Tabard Flapper Dress
About the Item
We are so thrilled to offer this extraordinarily beautiful and exceptionally rare French sequin sheer-net tabard flapper dance dress dating back to the mid 1920's. Iridescent glossy ivory sequins are mixed with metallic gold sequins in the most stunning art deco pattern. The impressive, complex graphic deco motif that runs throughout the dress is true wearable art at its finest. When the sequins hit the light it creates such dazzling sparkle! The sides are intentionally cut open with just one closure at the hip and this design choice looks sensational when you move. This ethereal piece can be paired with a silk slip, tap pants or just panties for a scandalous vibe. The work is entirely hand-applied and must have taken weeks to complete. Totally looks like a dress that inspired John Galliano when he was at Christian Dior. This masterpiece would make a beautiful bridal look or red carpet moment.
Measurements
Bust: Open (due to style)

This antique 1920's French tabard dress is in beautiful wearable with some flaws to note. There are a few faint spots to the inner sheer net-tulle which are almost impossible to see when worn. There is some sequin loss which is hard to notice since the entire garment is adorned and we found two small breaks to the net-tulle. Please e-mail for detailed pictures. The garment slips over the head with no additional closures. The level of work in this piece would only be found in the highest couture of today. A rare slice of fashion history.

Archival 1974 Yves Saint Laurent Documented Brown Floral Print Satin Maxi Dress
By Yves Saint Laurent Rive Gauche, Yves Saint Laurent
Located in Beverly Hills, CA
A totally gorgeous and highly coveted Yves Saint Laurent floral print maxi dress from the infamous Rive Gauche 1974 fall-winter collection. Finding documented pieces from this decade is very rare as these are true examples of fashion history. The fabric is a rich brown satin viscose which is incredibly soft on the skin. I adore the low scoop-neck plunge bodice with long slightly-billow sleeves. It's definite a piece of fashion history that is wearable and comfortable, yet has its own unique avant-garde elements.
"In the mid-1970s the relevance of haute couture was seriously debated. The political and social upheaval of the 1960s, the emergence of a plethora of creative ready-to-wear designers, and the increasing preference for a sportswear approach to dressing as represented by American fashion were among the shifts in lifestyles and taste that appeared to sound the death knell of the calcified and elitist world of the maisons de couture. It was at this time that Yves Saint Laurent, haute couture’s preeminent practitioner, threw caution to the prevailing winds with a collection of unrivaled fantasy and luxury."

Iconic 1992 Gianni Versace Couture Documented Black Bondage Silk Leather Gown
By Gianni Versace
Located in Beverly Hills, CA
An exceptional, museum quality Gianni Versace black leather, silk & lace heavily sculpted bondage gown dating back to his iconic 1992 fall-winter runway collection. This iconic collection, provocatively titled 'Miss S&M' definitely goes down in history as one of Gianni Versace's most recognizable looks. Versace’s fantasies came to life, fetishistic elements were worked into glamorous eveningwear, and with no small effort: Vogue said, “Getting strapped required eight hands. These high-maintenance looks were meant to be seen, not in a dungeon somewhere, but on the red carpet." As shown, this particular show-stopper of a gown, Look #62, has been worn by the likes of Christy Turlington, Tyra Banks...
