This two-in-one little black dress and jacket is by Mr John, a celebrated American couturier and one of the foremost milliners of the 20th century; his most famous costume designs being those made for Vivien Leigh in "Gone with the Wind," Marlene Dietrich in "Shanghai Express," Greta Garbo in "The Painted Veil" and Marilyn Monroe in "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes." Among the fashionable women who wore his designs were the Duchess of Windsor, Gloria Swanson, Gloria Vanderbilt, Lauren Bacall and Joan Crawford. The New York Times review of his 1956 fall clothing and accessories collection was "a gifted designer and skilled workman who produces some of the most original, wearable, flattering fashions to be seen anywhere." This evening ensemble was designed in 1956-1959 and tailored to an elegant silhouette with a nipped-in waist and mid-calf length skirt. Thick straps give way to a square neckline trimmed with layers of silk faille. A silver-tone zip and a hook-and-eye clasp secure the gown at the rear and a slit at the bottom hem of the skirt allows for easy movement. The bolero jacket is attached to the dress with large crystal-adorned buttons at the front. It is trimmed with silk faille at the collar and waist. Two pleated tails fall from the rear waist down the length of the skirt, adding a hint of theatre and taking cues from menswear traditions, in particular classic morning jacket...

This desirable 1960s pale pink trouser suit is by celebrated Italian designer Emilio Pucci and is vibrant, contemporary and in very good vintage condition, showing only gentle signs of wear. Pucci designs are synonymous with luxury and often in printed silk hosting bold geometric designs and this lovely ensemble is a fine earlier example of his trademark look. The sleeveless silk chiffon blouse features a rose-window style design in marine blue, lime green and fuchsia on a sugar pink background, subtly emblazoned with the designers signature. There is an open shirt style neckline and a gently scalloped hem. The silk linen trousers are straight legged with a tapered ankle line and are neatly tailored at the navel, fastening to the side with a zip and button closure. This gorgeous set is as smart as it is opulent and would best suit a US size 2, UK size 6 or smaller. Our model is a UK 6-8 and 5ft 4in (163cm) and this outfit fit her well. TOP : Bust - 36 Waist 36" Length - 24" TROUSERS: Waist - 24" Hip 34"" Length - 38" Notes on the designer: During the 1960s, Pucci's signature look reigned as the ultimate status symbol for the decade, having created a perfect transition between luxurious couture and ready to wear lounge suits...
