1990s Romeo Gigli Velvet & Disc Dress & Clutch designer-guy-laroche yellows and blues

yellows and blues

Alaia did this insane collection that knocked off the idea of a faux fur but its really a thick knitted plush fabric that's about an inch thick and feels and looks like nothing else on the planet

Amazing construction and a beautiful piece in excellent condition

There is also a separate black tulle underskirt to add further volume (note that it was not photoed with this underskirt so the skirt will be more full if worn with this)

1990s Romeo Gigli Velvet & Disc Dress & Clutch designer-guy-laroche yellows and bluesGigli loved the idea of matching your bag to your dress and it was a bit of a signature for him to do so. Here we have a great little set that still has its original matching clutch. Both pieces are made of a pretty blue crushed velvet that has an almost tie dye effect running through the fabric. To this a series of plastic iridescent discs are attached. Each disk has been heat treated to partially fold and twist it and this just adds to the textures
