The Little Black Dress….

   Posted by: Felicia Teleuca   in Margueritte Couture

…..just those three short words conjure up elegance, sophistication and style. Ask any woman, “What is the one essential piece in your wardrobe?” - most will answer, “It’s my Little Black Dress!”

The fabulous Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel designed a version of the little black dress. American Vogue instantly heralded it as the “Ford” of dresses because - like Henry Ford’s “Model-T” car - it became an instant craze, was widely available and came in only one colour: BLACK.

“Fashion fades, only style remains the same.” - Coco Chanel

In 1947 Christian Dior launched the “New Look” collection - a more feminine silhouette using lots of fabric.

The next LBD craze came in 1961 with the release of Blake Edwards’ adaptation of Truman Capote’s book “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” starring Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly. Every elegant woman coveted the Little Black Dress designed for Hepburn by Hubert de Givenchy.

Capote originally wanted to cast Marilyn Monroe in the lead, but Hepburn’s style and grace showed off Givenchy’s creations to spectacular effect.

Audrey Hepburn’s LBD worn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s sold at a Christie’s auction in London for a staggering ₤467,200.

In 1993 Diana, Princess of Wales wore a Christina Stambolian LDB to a function at the Serpentine Gallery while Prince Charles publicly confessed to adultery.

At the 80th Oscars Nicole Kidman proved that all you need to look sensational is an LBD and bold accessory (it also helps to be dressed by Balenciaga).

“If you put a black dress on, you’re never inappropriate and you’re never out of style” - Nicole Miller

Now, Margueritte Couture design,fit and make your very own perfect Little Black Dress!

Editor’s note:
A vintage evening dress can have a personal style. Because when buying a vintage dress, you don’t only buy the fabric and yarn, you buy a piece of the past.
This is what we love in vintage clothing, their beautiful fabric and history.
Everything we sell is in perfect condition.
Also, we do major repairs and necessary retouch.
Each garment is washed or dry cleaned.
We offer new life to these clothes, and we are happy to restore them, when so many things in life can not be repaired.

Details:
This is a unique piece, created by an unknown designer in the early ’40s.
A real dream of ecru lace.
-A cross-shapely sheath dress to the knee before opening with a large wheel on the bottom decorated with two silk bows.
-The waist line is highlighted with a silk belt that closes in the back with a knot.The beautiful ecru lace is worn on a background of beige silk dress.
-Zipper on the side.
This dress has everything to seduce pettite figures and will turn the heads of all the guests.

Measurements/Size: Small French 36-38 USA 6-8
PLEASE GO BY MEASUREMENTS GIVEN BELOW.
Measurements are of the garment itself, not body measurements.
Modern sizing standards vary, and are different from vintage size
tags. Measure a garment of your own in the same manner: laid flat,
measured across front then doubled- to guage fit. Garments may
fit snug at max measure - please leave room for comfort.
Approx. measurements are:
-Bust: 34″ (85cm)
-Waist: 27″ (68cm)
-Hip: 39″ (95cm)
-Shoulder seam to seam: n/a
-Shoulder to waist: 14.5″
-Sleeve: sleeveless
-Length shoulder to hem: 51″ (129cm)

-Bottom skirt sweep: 80″
Any larger size dresses have been clipped and waist cinched to
mannequin to show a more real silhouette. They will fit and look
different on different body types/sizes. Please do not go by any
VINTAGE size tags that may be present, vintage sizes labels
are not valid by today sizing standards.

Condition:

In good condition. A pea sized brown spot on the left side of the skirt. Three tiny grey smudges on the rear of the bodice. An orange pin dot on the front bodice (almost impossible to see). Little bit of marking on the satin at the underarms. A few tiny holes in the lining (not visible). Slightest hint of color variation on the satin. The bottom portion of the bow was tacked up… went to untaken it and realized that it is hiding a small tear in the bow underneath, so we have left it (tear is not visible this way and dress looks fine).

Please take note…

- VINTAGE clothes are NOT New Clothes…

- VINTAGE ITEMS ARE USED and are previously owned, worn, antique, old, etc., and have had a long and MYSTERIOUS past life by the time they come to us which we are not privy to.

THANKS SO MUCH!!!

!!! IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT VINTAGE!!!

Before leaving feedback:

- The condition of VINTAGE items is a subjective opinion

- I point out any major flaws I see, I may not list inside flaws if they are not seen and don’t effect the wear-ability of the item, trivial missed minor flaws do not constitute misrepresentation.
- Cleaning is usually left up to the new owner.

- I dry clean items or I wash them if they really need it. So please expect to have to clean or at least steam your item, as they will be wrinkled from shipping.

- Vintage items will not look new please expects them to look previously worn and owned, some more worn than others.
- The absence of a label in a garment does not necessarily mean item was homemade, regardless. Vintage labels may have been removed by original owner or the tag’s threads age and tag is lost, torn out, etc.

Please read entire ad and double check before buying if you are not familiar with the issues of Vintage.

MARGUERITE is a Belgian designer creating UNIQUE, HAND-MADE clothing.

As she is only working when inspiration invites her, she only creates JUST A FEW EXQUISITE ARTICLES each month.

Although creating one-off articles may resemble more to masochism than to fashion, some very beautiful articles see the light of the day. Most of her articles take from 25 to 46 hours of work each.

And because DEMAND is much higher than what she creates you’ll find VERY RARELY some of HER CREATIONS on sale. And beautiful are the dresses and the jackets created by Marguerite!

Although she doesn’t like publicity, sometimes you might find a few articles for sale here.

Check the Marguerite Couture label. And good luck! Cause you’ll need it if you want to wear her creations…

Short Bio

Marguerite has a long history of playing with materials and giving them life.

Her love and passion for the “couture” is reflected all along the way: while she is choosing materials, combining them, sewing them together, putting them into shape. For that, they become not only an article but a personality enhancer for the person that wears her creations.

LET’S TALK LEGGINGS!

   Posted by: Felix   in Fashion Design Luxury

This fall is all about legs, legs and more legs. There is no better way to show off toned legs than with a sleek pair of leggings.

The most important thing when picking out a pair is to pay attention to the fabric. Do not pass pantyhose off as leggings. Choose a quality, heavier material that will hide imperfections and will give your legs a smooth, flawless surface.

Leggings come in materials from denim to leather, so experiment to find the right pair for you. The design is in the details, too — zippers, buttons and lace are all popping up on leggings.

Not quite ready to bare all? Opt for a great pair of dark skinny denim. This allows you to feel a little more held in, while still maintaining the overall silhouette of a legging.

Tips on how to wear blazers and leggings:

Wear leggings like leggings. Even if they are leather or denim, you must still have some coverage of your waist and hips. Most boyfriend blazers will cover enough, but if opting for a shrunken blazer, be sure to pair it with a longer top.

Go for a full-length legging that comes down to your ankle. This creates a much longer line and is more flattering than cropped styles, which visually cut your leg in half.

Wear your legging-and-blazer outfit with “shooties” (cross between an ankle boot and a shoe) or boots to complete the look. Leggings are the perfect bottoms to tuck into boots because there is minimal bunching.

Halloween - Origin of name

   Posted by: Felix   in Dreams or Premonitions

The term Halloween (also spelled Hallowe’en) is shortened from All Hallows’ Evene’en is a shortening of even, which is the origin of the words “evening” and “eve”. This is ultimately derived from the Old English Eallra Hālgena ǣfen. It is now known as “Eve of” All Saints’ Day, which is November 1st.

In the 800s, the Church measured the day as starting at sunset, in accordance with the Florentine calendar. Although All Saints’ Day is now considered to occur one day after Halloween, the two holidays were once celebrated on the same day.

Welcome to the August 2, 2009 edition of the Carnival of Fashion! We came back with best posts submitted during the summer. Enjoy! There we go:

The Category of those who did not categorized

A few great articles about bags!
Sabrina Alexis presents Bags That Dress The Part and Swap Bags posted at A New Mode.
(And because Sabrina Alexis posted a lot of articles, we might as well create a new category: A New Mode :)
We had to choose two posts. Keep up the good work Sabrina!)
Dsusetyo presents Pink Purse posted at All About Women handbags and Style.
Use those jeans to transform yourself!
Stacey Stanley presents NYDJ Tummy Tuck Jeans Review: Transform Your Figure? | NYDJ Tummy Tuck Jeans Review posted at NYDJ Tummy Tuck Jeans Review, saying, “Not Your Daughters Jeans (NYDJ) Tummy Tuck Jeans have taken the fashion world by storm since they were introduced in 2005. Even Oprah has gotten on the band wagon and touts them as one of her favorites. I personally know of several women that swear by them, including my Mom, because they can transform an average or plus sized shape shape into a beautiful shapely shape.”
A few tips for not burning your bill and still looking good:

Design / Models / Patterns

Shauna inspires us to find our inner power and to dress “powerfully”: Shauna Heathman presents Never stop challenging yourself - an interview with designer Lindsey Carter and Business attire for Inverted Triangle posted at Mackenzie’s Blog.
Noemia comes up with a few interesting photos - clothes almost become a personality treat. Noemia presents I LIKE and THE SKY IS BURNING posted at ¿Dónde estarás esta noche?.
Why should we choose a shoulder “enhancer” is explained by Talk Prom Dresses presents Show Those Shoulders posted at Prom Dresses, saying, “Displaying shoulders seems to have been a hit in this past year’s prom dress season.”
Ben Lau presents Hong Kong PolyU Design Annual Show posted at vidafine.com, saying, “Every year, the Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU)’s School of Design holds an Annual show featuring students’ works. This year, the school recognized that design is no longer a “one-way street” and that the underlying theme for the show would be “Response”. This was chosen to emphasize communication and interaction in the making of good design. I have compiled a short list of a couple of my favourites from the show.”

Fashion Trends 2009

Tattoo is an accessory as our clothes and John presents Henna Art Tattoos posted at Printable Tattoo, saying, “Ever thought a tattoo could be a fashion trend? well check out beautiful Henna Art Tattoos. They could be the next big fashion statement.”

What colours for this year?

Rabbit White presents Safe and comfortable colors | Rabbit Write posted at Rabbit Write, saying, “When I first read about Rebecca Turbow’s safe clothing line in 2006, I was utterly fascinated to learn that the designer only wore one color, which at the time was turquoise. Turbow wore turquoise for 8 years before switching to gray in 2008. The idea of wearing only one color resonated with me, I thought that level of control must feel safe, almost like a boundary, comfortable and easy… though maybe a bit boring. It also sounds a bit like synesthesia: a condition where sensations are mixed, numbers may be colored or perhaps words with taste. I think I’ve always been somewhat of a synesthete,”

You cannot miss sherry’s blog about “+size” fashion:

sherry presents I Love Monif C PLus SIze posted at PLUS SIZE FASHION UNDERGROUND, saying, “plus size fashion”

Amir Marzouq presents Checking out Eco-friendly Plus Size Fashion | Guffly posted at Guffly, saying, “Guffly is a one product per day online store and community with a focus on eco friendly products and fair trade lifestyle goods like home, pet, clothing, office and personal accessories.

Sammy-Jo presents Her Thoughts: Not Every Style is for Everybody posted at The Only Number.


Hottest Shops / Concepts

Rabbit White tells us to throw away everything it is not “us”.

Rabbit White presents Wardrobe: stripped and swapped | Rabbit Write posted at Rabbit Write, saying, “The most productive thing I’ve ever done for my closet and possibly my personal style is the night I spent cleansing my wardrobe with my neighbor-friend Perry. We threw away about 50% of our clothes, bringing new life to our closets by claiming the treasures we found in each others trashed clothes.

The rules were simple. Throw away anything you don’t wear, or that you don’t see yourself wearing again. Throw away anything that does not lend itself to your current personal style, or what your mind’s eye sees as your classic style. Throw away anything you wore in order to fit in with a certain group, or for a boy. Throw away all things that are faded or look too old. Convene with the clothing-trash and take anything you’d like that the other girl has tossed, everything else gets thrown out!”


Fashion Humour

Step 46. Volunteer

A useful way to help others is to volunteer. Time is the most important resource that you have and the idea of offering this prized possession is a unique experience. Offer help at a kids or old people center, in schools or churches.

Step 47. Ups and downs

You won’t feel permanently motivated because you have ups and downs in your life. The important thing is to keep your ground and let go of the moments of anger and frustration.

Step 48. Your contribution

What will you leave behind? Have you ever thought that the decent life you have involves a feed-back when you go out, when you leave the country or when you die? Decide to make your future activities as constructive as possible so that your place in the world will gain a higher value.

Step 49. Enjoy the ride

While you follow your plan thoroughly, don’t forger to smile and enjoy every moment of your life.

Don’t focus only on your goal because otherwise you’ll lose your motivation and your strength to move on.

Step 50. Start in the right direction

Boom!

Maybe you don’t realize this, but it’s not a long time from now until you get the success you want. The simple fact that you had the patience to read this article is a step forward on your way to success. Now all that’s left is to get through the 49 steps.

50 Steps to Success (41-45)

   Posted by: Joy   in 50 Steps to Success

Step 41. Gather your favorite quotes

Whether you find them in your favorite books, or from the movies on TV or you hear them from your favorite stars, quotes can motivate you. Don’t hesitate to write it down every time you find yourself in a quote.

Step 42. Learn from your mistakes

When things don’t work like you want them to, don’t waste the opportunity to learn from the mistakes. Get closer and closer to the solutions you want by trying to repair the past mistakes.

Step 43. Manifest your curiosity

The world is full of amazing things that are ready to be discovered. Be curious and read, discuss, observe, listen and uncover the mysteries that surround you.

Step 44. Around children

Spending time with kids can be relaxing, you can forget about worries and problems because it’s pleasant to remind yourself that you were once a kid. As adults, we’ve learned to hide our true feelings and we have a reticent attitude. Release your imagination and enjoy life!

Step 45. Focus on those around you

There is nothing more useful than directing your attention on those around you and learning from their problems. Offer support to those who need you and, together, find solutions for all the problems you face.
