Nina Ricci Patron Original Cocktail Dress

About the Item

Featuring a refined multi-coloured silk floral print, this haute couture Nina Ricci sleeveless cocktail dress would be perfect for a wedding or a christening. A-line silhouette with a bow detail to the front, the dress has a flattering boat neckline. Coming from the shoulders straps and sewn along both side of the dress, two folds of fabric create a kind of “Watteau back” which provides a train effect behind each shoulder and an over-dress in front. Fully lined in off-white silk crepe (adding opacity to the sheer silk), 2 steps closing (see picture 12) at the left back. Fits approx. : US 2-6 / FR 36-38 Measurements (taken flat) : Width (armpit to armpit) approx. 45 cm (17.7 inches) Length (shoulder to hem) approx. 100 cm (39.4 inches) This item has been professionally cleaned, pressed & carefully inspected by a couture-trained seamstress before being sold.

Alaïa Ribbed Knit Mini Dress, Fall-Winter 1990-1991
By Azzedine Alaïa
Located in Geneva, CH
This recognizable 90's Alaïa slim-fit viscose ribbed knit celadon mini dress is designed to flatteringly follow the line of the silhouette. The runway dress presented at the 1990-1991 Alaïa's Fall-Winter fashion show (look 74, see picture 8) was almost identical except for a few details such as that it was not ribbed. This unlined piece nips in at the waist and features a contrasting "mini-ribbed" scoop collar, wrists and hemline (see pictures 3, 9 & 11). Labeled a size M, the stretchy fabric will easily accommodate a small L size as well. Made in Italy. Worn in a different colorway by Nicole Richie during her book signing “The Truth about Diamonds” at Virgin Megastore in New York (see pictures 4, 5 & 6), the same dress was seen on Margot Robbie in the infamous “nursery scene” in The Wolf of Wall Street film (see pictures 12 & 13). Definitely a chic and versatile vintage must-have from Azzedine Alaïa ! Fabric contents : 93% Rayon, 5% Nylon & 2% Spandex (Elasthan). Fits approx. : US 2-8 (small US 8) / FR 36-40 (small FR 40) Measurements (taken flat and un-stretched) : Width (shoulder to shoulder) approx. 34 cm (13.4 inches) Width (from armpit to armpit) approx. 34 cm (13.4 inches) Waist approx. 23.5 cm (9.3 inches) Length (shoulder to hem) approx. 86.5 cm (34.1 inches) Sleeve length approx. 56.5 cm (22.2 inches) Total length approx. 91.5 cm (36 inches) This item has been professionally cleaned, pressed & carefully inspected by a couture-trained seamstress before being sold.
