A tale of two dresses!

What can be better than a LBD – a LONG Black dress of course! Here we have TWO figure-hugging dresses from opposite ends of the fashion world – the only common denominator is the necessary requirement to have the BODY to wear them!

The first dress in from Frank Usher, basically Englands equivalent to Victor Costa! Turning out good quality versions/copies of dresses from the Paris runways – this stunning dress is totally covered in black sequins and black beads (the silver effect in the image is from the camera flash on the sequins!). It is a head-turning dress not just because of the shimmer and light it will give off, but from the way it will most certainly accentuate that fabulous body inside it!

The second dress is from the upper end of the fashion scale – a fabulously simple yet incredibly stunning dress by ISSEY MIYAKE, the famous avant garde Japanese designer! Very similar in appearance, this dress relies solely on its simplicity to achieve that same head-turning moment as you and THAT BODY walk by!! In a very thin, figure-hugging lightweight ribbed wool this dress clings and moulds in such a way you would be in serious danger of losing every one of your girl-friends!

Classy Holiday Wear!

This Holiday why not go for something out of the ordinary with that simple classy elegance that personifies the word “chic” :

1960s Cresta Couture evening dress in a black matelasse (textured) fabric which has a silver ‘dusting’ giving at a discreet sparkly effect. The ‘sedate’ neckline plunges to a deep V-shape at the back and is trimmed with a 2″ wide strip of soft white fur. Even better this is for a bust 42″ and is in Excellent condition!

Purple beaded dress

Just look at the understated yet sheer elegant purplw beading on this dress! In a heavy-weight grosgrain fabric, amazingly there is no tag or label! Beading in every shape and size decorates the bodice, but the ‘wow’ factor is the pleated panel at the back skirt!
