OOOOH Karl!!!

In the 80s Karl Lagerfeld had his hands full I'm sure. What we at Decades like to talk about however is his design, at the house of Chanel. Below you will find two dresses from the his first stint at Chanel that capture both a touch of the old Karl and a touch of the 80s all the while transcending decades to be relevant whether you wear them today or in a decades time...

This first Haute Couture gown is a blue and violet mouseline gown printed with an abstract floral motif. The fluidity of the fabric is matched by the print allowing an ethereal goddess to be revealed from within. The design captures the times, the designer and the Venus in all. It has an attached cape for added allure. SOLD



With this Haute Couture Gown, Karl spins 180 degrees turning water to fire, and this gown is sure to alight the night for you. Also a mouseline floral print dress, this one gathers the bust on the neck with a gold ring which passes the fabric over the back into a beautifully draped cape. Of course this is also from the 80s, but is appropriate even now. That is the magic of timeless design that it can be worn years later. With this gown there is no doubt that you will feel hot hot hot! SOLD
