Rare 1965 Courreges for Samuel Robert Special Collaboration Muted Metallic Gold Jacket Coat Shop By Vintage Designer That department store opened its

That department store opened its door around 1904 and I found a reference to it as being "described as a place where sumptuous richness is the keynote"

The bodice is a double layer of the jersey and the skirt is unlined

the show also ended up feeling—as Lagerfeld's Chanel outings often do—very much of the moment

The dress simply slips on and wraps and you use the black nylon jersey fabric belt to tighten and tie it onto place

Rare 1965 Courreges for Samuel Robert Special Collaboration Muted Metallic Gold Jacket Coat Shop By Vintage Designer That department store opened itsThis coat represents an unusual little piece of fashion history. In 1965 Andre Courreges designed a line of pieces for Samuel Robert. For whatever reason this collaboration only lasted that one single year which makes pieces from it extremely rare. When researching this we found a picture of Jean Shrimpton wearing a suit with a similar front double button cut that was also made for this line. I love finding these unusual little pieces of history and
