About the Item

French fashion designer Guy Laroche was known for his elaborate evening dresses and tailored suits. Beloved by young Parisiennes and American fashion designers alike, he designed clothing for private clients at his Paris atelier. Not one for extremes, Laroche’s designs remained classic and pretty throughout, always showcasing his excellence as an artist and skill as a craftsman. This vintage Guy Laroche dress and jacket set is done in cerulean blue silk organza that features an abstract print in shades of cranberry, black, white, and yellow. The strapless dress begins with a bustier neckline that frames the decolletage. The skirt falls in soft pleats from the fitted waist to a maxi length at the ankles, creating a classic columnar silhouette. The matching short jacket is unlined, adding a sensual sheer element to the ensemble. It begins with a simple jewel neckline and angular puff sleeves that reach just above the wrists, adding a note of drama and volume to the silhouette. The jacket may be worn open or closed, allowing for versatile styling. This set is beautifully tailored throughout while the abstract print lends the fabric a pleasing visual movement of its own. A special addition to the discerning fashion lover’s wardrobe, this elegant dress and jacket are the perfect choice for an evening soiree or special occasion. Size: 38 FR/ 6 US DRESS: Bust: 37 inches Waist: 26.5 inches Hips: Full Length: 51 inches from the top of dress This Guy Laroche maxi dress and jacket set is in excellent condition.

1950s Hattie Carnegie Silk Floral Print Watercolor Nipped Waist Dress
By Hattie Carnegie
Located in Boca Raton, FL
From the early 1950s comes this heavenly silk dress by Hattie Carnegie. Its nipped-waist silhouette is the perfect canvas for the gorgeous watercolor print that unfolds upon it: a blanket of pretty peonies in shades of pink, gray, white, lavender and, of course, Carnegie blue. “My clothes are built to show off the woman who wears them,” the American designer once said. “I like them to be simple—complicated and simple—to move well, to move with the times and a little ahead of them.” Still stunning today, this vintage treasure is a reflection of her philosophy—and a ladylike option for so many occasions, from a springtime luncheon to a summertime wedding or garden party.

Leonard Paris Floral Silk Lace Inset Maxi Dress, 1990s
By Leonard of Paris
Located in Boca Raton, FL
Synonymous with luxury and innovation, Léonard Paris is known for their silk jersey dresses and signature orchid prints. Referring to himself as “... a couturier with a sense of marketing,” Daniel Tribouillard was originally inspired to create floral prints to contrast the popular geometric designs of Emilio Pucci. The unique success of what began as an astute business decision became a genuine romance, the prints taking precedence over the style of the garments themselves, almost always incorporating flowers, which, as Tribouillard said himself, “Léonardizes” a design. From the 1990’s, this fabulous dress is done in Leonard’s signature silk jersey and sheer floral lace. The beautiful material features a print of large flowers in shades of light pink, magenta, red, grey, and lavender on a black ground. The print is interspersed throughout with large mint green leaves and white and black flowers that complement the black lace inset...
