Nicholas Ghesquiere’s Fall Winter 2002 show for Balenciaga was a landmark collection. The motorcycle jackets, shaggy wool coats and cubist dresses dominated the editorial pages for months. We currently have the wool motorcycle jacket at auction in our eBay store.
This black net and copper sequin Fendi dress is another new arrival. It is also brand new and unworn with Neiman Marcus tags.
This Chanel blazer is one of today’s new arrivals. It is from the 08P collection. It is brand new and unworn. The original Neiman Marcus price tag is still attached. Give us a call or stop by the store if you are interested!
In 2003, Takashi Murakami, the Japanese artist, collaborated with Louis Vuitton on a wildly successful collection of bags. His bright, colorful style was a refreshing change of pace. The bags sold out almost immediately. The 2007 documentary “Marc Jacobs & Louis Vuitton” by director Loic Prigent explored the creative process behind the frenzy. The special features section included a chapter on the Tribute Patchwork bag. The Patchwork was composed of 15 different Louis Vuitton bags sewed together to create a new bag. Only 20 were made and they retailed for about $40,000 each.
This collage style of this bag is reminiscent of the Tribute Patchwork. It is currently listed at our eBay store.
As you may have heard, Martin Margiela has officially left his company after 20 years. There have been many (past, present and future) retrospectives honoring his illustrious career. We did a post on this very subject last month. Rene Rosso, the owner of Diesel (and Martin Margiela and Viktor & Rolf), announced that he will not be replacing Margiela with another designer. The current design team will continue in his absence. Judging from the recent collections, Margiela’s sure touch will be missed.
We just posted a vintage Martin Margiela gold silk tie neck top to our eBay store. It features all of the clever and thoughtful design details that made Martin Margiela such a beloved figure in the fashion industry.

Christoper Kane is one of fashion’s newest stars. A graduate of Central Saint Martins, his Spring Summer 2007 debut collection was the sensation of London Fashion Week. He currently is a consultant for Versace and just launched a successful, one off, collaboration with Topshop.
This unique dress is from Kane’s Fall Winter 2007 collection. After his stellar debut, people wondered if he would be able to provide a strong follow up show. Kane proved them wrong as the Fall Winter 2007 collection showed maturity and verve. Style.com’s Sarah Mower called him “the strongest talent to emerge from London in a decade.” This dress is currently listed at our eBay store.
This gorgeous Rochas coat is from Olivier Theyskens’ tenure as head designer. It is the perfect blend of Rochas heritage plus Theyskens’ modern, gothic vision. We will be listing it at our eBay store this Sunday. Don’t miss out!
