    Undercover SS 2004 RARE Languid Dress Sz S Look 10 Pristine Condition

    Beautiful lavender dress from SS 2004 Languid collection by Jun Takahashi of Undercover.

    This dress is rare. The garments from this collection came down the runway each as a one half of a pair, in which each garment evinced exaggerated details that nonetheless were clearly extreme versions of a basic idea that unified that particular pair coming down the runway.

    This dress fits an IT 40 best. It is in brand new, unworn pristine condition as I purchased it for my garment collection.

    Fabrication: cotton/satin with satin stripes interspersed. This is the shorter dress of the pair.

    Styling: I am wearing the dress with a silk chiffon vest from Lost & Found and white Guidi hand painted platform sandals without heels.





    Measurements:
    Shoulder 14.75"
    Bust 36"
    Length 39"

    [/url]

    Meant to fit loosely, aka "housewife style"

    Asking $345 + 10 shipping/insurance CONUS, $20 shipping/tracking outside of US. PP fees included.

      Comme des Garçons Tricot
      Tartan Plaid Skirt with Attached Large External Pocket Worn 3-ways

      AW 1999

      Measurements:
      Waist 28"
      Hips 34"
      Length 35"

      Notes: absolutely unique construction. Skirt can be worn in three ways: with pocket on side, front or back.
      Very large external, attached pocket w button flap closure typically found on menswear.

      Condition: 10/10 As new. Never been worn. A rarity from this era!

      Worn with pocket at side:





      Pocket worn in the back


      Pocket worn in the front like a "kangaroo pouch"


      As usual, a tour de force example in pattern-making:

      The pocket covers the seams that allow for the curvature of the hips will maintaining a straight silhouette.



      Asking: $295 PP fees and shipping included CONUS. $25 EMS shipping supplement outside of US.

                  Junya Watanabe SS 2003
                  "Parachute Collection" Rare 2 piece set

                  100% Virgin Wool Blazer with Buckle Across Bust w Adjustable Straps
                  and
                  100% Virgin Wool Long Bustle Skirt w Adjustable Straps

                  These pieces are much more commonly found in cotton (and I already have both in cotton so I'm selling these pieces in nearly new condition.)

                  The adjustable straps make it possible for you to change the silhouette in many ways and to adjust the size so that it fits a variety of sizes. I typically wear either SS (XS) or S in CDG/Junya.

                  Jacket: Sz S (will fit XS/SS or S)
                  Measurements
                  Shoulders: 15"
                  Bust: 36"
                  Waist: 28" (if jacket is closed). 36" if opened
                  Condition: NWOT 10/10 (I also have this in cotton and so have not worn this one.)




                  Junya Watanabe for CDG SS 2003
                  Fitted Parachute Skirt with very adjustable straps
                  Skirt: Sz M
                  Measurements (fully adjustable. fits xs, small and medium, too)

                  Waist: 28-29"
                  Hips: Max 38"
                  Length: Max 39"

                  NWOT (I've never worn it - I tend to wear my cotton SS 2003 pieces. It only needs to be ironed, which I will do before sending it out.)







                  Both pieces SOLD (I would be happy to keep them but as it is, they're sort of duplicative so I can let them go.)

                  These pieces are exceptionally rare in this fabric and in this condition. (Ten years old!)

                  Price inclusive of shipping in US, PP fees anywhere. $50 supplement to ship outside of US via insured EMS.

                    Paul Harnden Volumnous Knit Bustle Skirt (M fits S-M) and Wool Jacket (M-fits XS-S)

                    Paul Harnden

                    Paul Harnden "Early 'Nautical' Asymmetrical Placket Jacket -- an experiment with boiled wool -- with Stand-up Collar"

                    pre-owned. no piling. some discoloration around leather button backs visible in lining.




                    Size M - fits quite small XS - S. I wear size S in contemporary Paul Harnden. Although the measurements may suggest otherwise, a few details in combination add up to make this jacket more snug that you may expect.

                    Covered buttons. 5 button cuff. All buttons backed with signature Harnden leather, hand-applied button backs.

                    Two slit pockets - one breast, the other at the waist - on jacket's frontside.

                    No vent in back.

                    Those details making it fit smaller are the following:

                    1) the cut and proportions of this jacket, specifically, the sleeve and shortened body length make this jacket feel snug;

                    2) What's more, boiled wool is has more volume and bulk than a simple felted wool and the cotton lining in beige is more bulky due to the intentional "rustic" quality of the cotton chosen for use as lining.


                    Measurements when buttoned:

                    Shoulder: 15"
                    Bust: 35"
                    Body Length: 22.5"
                    Sleeve Length: 21"

                    Worn with buttons unaligned (I tend to wear this jacket this way)
                    Bust: 36"

                    Wearing it open, or with cuff buttons undone will also make quite a bit more room.

                    Asking: SOLD
                    ***********************************
                    Paul Harnden Classic Bustle Skirt in Heavy Gauge Knit Wool with "Cool" Cotton Poplin Lining

                    Size M

                    Skirt is worn in photos with jacket above. More detailed photos to come.

                    Waist: 28" - 29" I usually wear S in Paul Harnden but can adopt to many sizes (styling is the key.)
                    Length: 31"

                    For comparison, my natural waist is around 24".

                    The wool has quite a bit of volume to it, and the cotton lining contributes to it. That said, I love the cotton, which is a poplin with a "crisp, cool" hand that Harnden uses to line his garments. So great for for winter.

                    Two cotton strings for easy hanging of skirt.

                    Has classic 6 leather button off-center front closure. Poplin trim. Knit bustle in back.

                    Asking what I recall paying: SOLD

                            below: styled with Paul Harnden thin cotton poplin shirt and Carpe Diem skirt.



                            Measurements follow S, this fits an XS better, however, due to the shorter sleeve length (usually 23" for small.) Also better for someone with a short torso or my height (5'4") or less due to length of body.




                            Bust: 34" - 36" (flexible given there is no closure)
                            Shoulder: 15"
                            Sleeve: 22"
                            Length: 20"

                            Asking: SOLD (due to bulk).
