MUGLER Olive Green Long Blazer with Leather Patched Lapel, Size M  –  SOLD

Thierry Mugler is an exclusive French fashion designer, and has recently handed the reins of his creative direction to Casey Cadwallader, who is determined to make a “laboratory of change”* in the world of French couture.  The brand “MUGLER will explore a progressive and diverse vision of femininity, acknowledging the dynamic reality of our daily lives and the clothes we need to elevate them. By broadening the offer into a complete daywear wardrobe, the MUGLER silhouette evolves to enable freedom and power through a new ease and fluidity.”*

This jacket does just that.  Its androgynous long-waited cut allows for an evolution of the female professional, and the color creates a bit of light relief to an otherwise serious piece of outerwear.  The rich olive tone is playful, yet muted, and will work with most neutral colors.  The hidden snap button front keeps the lines of this jacket sleek, while the drop pocket waist adds a bit of masculinity.  This piece is additionally made unique by the geometric tonal leather patches along the collar, with silver-tone metal trim following down the lapel.  Size M (French 40).  Priced at $499. SOLD

GIORGIO ARMANI Gold and Silver Fully Sequined Olive and Purple Floral Embroidered Evening Jacket, Size 10

Elegant, complex, and whimsical, this fully sequined, fully floral embroidered evening jacket is truly a unique addition to your holiday wardrobe.  Gold and silver sequins interchange and layer, while darker tones of olive, brown, and lavender embroidered vines and flowers make their way throughout the piece.  The Asian-inspired flowers, brocade satin button placket, and fabric-wrapped buttons on the bias give an Indian-influenced cut, making this piece exotic, romantic, and a powerful piece of rich elegance.  Silk lined.  Size 10.  Priced at $599.

OSCAR DE LA RENTA Black Cashmere Full Length Coat with Sequin Trim, Size 10 – SOLD

Bold and regal, this black full length cashmere evening coat is truly a refined celebratory statement.  From the same collection as the bolero suit featured above, this piece is the pièce de résistance.  Unapologetically regal, playfully elegant, and the apex of luxury, this coat is a couture collector’s dream come true.  Size 10.  Priced at $899.
