Jean Louis Sherrer Lacquered Lace Cocktail Dress

About the Item

Lovely J.L Scherrer cocktail dress in black lacquered lace over black velvet boned bustier dress. Larged ruffled lace collar and cuffs. Covered lace buttons down the back provide entry and a gathered lace "waist" cinches the silhouette. Lace ruff can be propped up with the addition of jewelry (choker) underneath for a more dramatic look.
The lacquered lace is shiny and slightly subversive. Multiple layers of tulle prop up the gathered skirt. This wearable 80's relic looks particularly current with its visible velvet shoulder pads. A beautifully crafted and constructed dress.

Shoulder across back: 15"

  • The little black dress by Chanel black and white silk Sculpted figure
    Located in Bilbao, ES
    Absence of vulgarity was central to Chanel’s definition of luxury, a view formed during her impoverished early life. Born in 1883 in Saumur, France, as Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel, she was just 12 years old when her mother died and her itinerant father put her in a home for orphaned girls run by a local convent. She learned to sew and, upon moving to Moulins six years later, became a seamstress. She also sang in nightclubs, earning the sobriquet “Coco,” an allusion to a popular song of the time. Beautiful, one of a kind vintage silk dress and jacket for everyday ware as a coktail dress...
