This spotlight-stealing gown was designed by Antony Price during the 1990s. Price became known for his image-making, collaborating on outlandish, seductive designs with the most famous musicians of the 20th century, including David Bowie, Duran Duran and Roxy Music. He went on to dress Anjelica Huston, Jerry Hall, Yasmin Le Bon, Diana Ross and Dita Von Teese. The fashion journalist and AnOther’s Magazine Editor, Alexander Fury, aptly noted “an unparalleled master of modern made-to-measure occasion wear and the most criminally overlooked designer in British fashion.” This decadent evening gown showcases Price’s fabric-draping genius and the body and asymmetric hemline falls as though modelled on an ancient Greek Goddess statue...

This documented Gucci dress from Frida Giannini walked the runway as part of the Fall 2007 show (look 20/47). A stand out piece in the runway show, it was also featured in the ad campaigns for the collection. The dress is tailored from black silk printed with arty deco motifs in shades of grey set against vibrant red, cornflower blue and burgundy. It is cut to a twisted, body-sweeping silhouette which falls to a mini-length with a short flippy skirt. The top has short sleeves and a rounded neckline that gives way at the back to a skin-flashing low-back that wraps around the waist and ties at the side with three large buckles. These buckles are the stand-out detailing on this piece - the fabric loops through two high-shine gold-tone metal rings, crowned on each side with a large art deco brooch...

This 1960s Tony Armstrong evening dress is cut in a classic and flattering column silhouette with a high rounded neckline and short, slightly capped sleeves. The front is very lightly embroidered with fine blue thread in a criss-cross pattern. This continues round to the back of the dress, where a concealed original metal zipper ensures a smooth and seamless fit. A pair of right and left darts to the front and back emphasises the waist. The fabric is a very fine quality peacock blue raw silk with a satin sheen to it whilst it is fully lined in a lilac coloured acetate. A best fit for around a UK 8-10 or US 4-6. Superb vintage condition and looks barely worn, we noted only a small area of discoloration to the lining near both the sleeve underarms but this is totally unseen when worn. Tony Armstrong was a British couture...

This is a brilliant example of Ceil Chapman's early work from the late 1940s to early 1950s and the black taffeta silk design is exquisite. Its the first thing you notice about this dress which has the most unusual construction. The skirt's textured element from a distance looks like a floral design but its actually a large number of circular pleated stitched designs. The way the fabric is pulled and stitched creates an almost 3D effect. We have never seen this work before but it would have taken a very skilled seamstress and an incredible amount of time to do it. The dress style is a classic shirtwaister design with three taffeta covered buttons to fasten the bodice which is beautifully shaped and Princess seamed. The sleeves are three quarter length and feature a folded cuff...
