VINTAGE @ THE MET
The Costume Institute Gala at the Met is one of the places to see Runway and Couture Fashion in all its glory. However, those who are in the know venture into the realm of Vintage for a unique look and a statement above the rest that says, “I am fashionable and contemporary with a twist.” Let us raise a glass to lovely ladies in Vintage and remember, Fashion repeats itself!
YSL LACE-UP CARGO DRESS
Yves Saint Laurent dress from the Tom Ford era, probably a Cruise Collection. A sexy take on the cargo craze, the dress laces up the front and has some lacing on the back, creating a sexy shape. Opens with a side zipper and has a built in bra and boning at the top. The large cargo style pockets on the front play into the trend of the time and give this sexy dress a playful appeal. In excellent condition, the size tag has been cut out.

RUNWAY FALL 2009 RTW: LOUIS VUITTON
Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton has been a successful partnership for several years now. Always one step ahead of the trends, Jacobs has created a collection with a gothic feel mixed with jewel tones and a deconstructed flair. The deep V necklines on the lacy tops and the exaggerated layering on the mini skirts and coats makes this a fun, flirty collection.
The Chanel ruffle blouse has a deep V neckline with ruffles that would work great in recreating this runway look and the YSL jewel toned top is the exact same shade as the fabulous ruffled coat shown on the runway.
RUNWAY FALL 2009 RTW: GIAMBATTISTA VALLI
For his 2009 Fall collection, Giambattista Valli was clearly inspired by the Yves Saint Laurent collections of the 70’s and 80’s. The full skirted gowns, the ruched and draped necklines, the vivid colors and prints all scream YSL. Valli commented that his collection was more inspired by Saint Laurent’s “lifestyle” as apposed to his actual fashion but the apparent influence flows through the entire runway show.
RUNWAY FALL 2009 RTW: STELLA McCARTNEY
For such a fabulous collection it is hard to believe that every single item that went down the runway is Vegan (except for a few of the models, perhaps). From the vegan legging booties to the silk slip dresses and the over-sized blazers, McCartney’s collection is wearable and lust-able. I am dying to get my hands on the navy iridescent moto jacket and maybe a jumpsuit or two.
RUNWAY FALL 2009 RTW: EMANUEL UNGARO
The new Emanuel Ungaro collection by Esteban Cortazar has the same flirt and flare of the Ungaro collections if the 80’s. Beautifully printed cocktail dresses topped with cropped blazers and vivid colors mixed with muted tones makes Ungaro a cut above when it comes to sweet and sexy with out looking too made up. Every dress hugs the body is the most amazing way and the mixing of prints allows you to dress each item up or down. I especially love the colorful strappy sandals that finish every look.
RUNWAY FALL 2009 RTW: ETRO
There is something about Etro that makes me want to dress BoHo. Veronica Etro’s use of color and texture makes her “East meets West” collections hip and contemporary with a vintage vibe. Fringe, fur, paisley and gold lame all come together to create a rich palate of beautifully wearable clothing and every look is finished with of-the-moment-they-just-won’t-go-away gladiator sandals.
