Spotlight on Vintage: Saint Laurent Vintage Floral Dress

We're all familiar with the brand YSL or Yves Saint Laurent, it's synonymous as one of the largest, luxury brands of our time.

Yves Saint Laurent was formed in 1961 and their ready to wear collection was labelled Saint Laurent Rive Gauche.

Our gorgeous water colour floral print dress is from this same label.

It has a spectacular Bardot neckline that's all the rage now. This fabulous number is a 1980's dress disguised as a 1950's one but without seeing the label it would be hard for someone to guess the era.

The print itself has soft pastel tones that are reminiscent of Monet's water lilies paintings.

Did you know that a few years ago Yves Saint Laurent re-branded their clothing back to Saint Laurent? It caused a bit of a stir in the fashion world but they did keep the YSL logo for their cosmetics and accessories.

This stunning designer dress was be an incredible addition to any vintage mavens wardrobe.

It's available to buy in store or on Open For Vintage. You lucky gals!!!

1980's Party People

Aren't we stylish!!!

A little bit Tokyo Cute, a little bit 80's Ra-ra

Me and my shoulder pads later left the party to go play American Football!

Oh The 80's...How I love to hate you...

While Dirty Fabulous relocates I find myself with a lot more time on my hands, in particular my weekends are free, I temporarily get to do what most people have always been doing...seeing friends!

This weekend I was at my best friends 30th in Wexford. 1980's was the theme, scary yes...fun...definitely!

1980s fashion is big at the minute on the high street so it was hard not to look too current. But everyone put in a big effort, there where some Fame girls, Guns & Roses members, Jimmy Saville, many Miami Vicers (hilarious!) and so on.

I got my dress in a charity shop and made the shoulder pads and military chains. It was worth the effort because I won The Best Dressed!!! I was highly chuffed!

While fashion might have had a nervous breakdown in the 80's music hit one of it's brightest era's and so the dancing on the night was EPIC.

A fab night was had by all

Additions to the Dirty Fabulous Vintage Collection

Here are a selection of incredible vintage dresses that we recently got in to Dirty Fabulous. The first three evening gowns are from the 1930's.

The slinky satin of these stunning creations drapes beautifully on the figure and the colours are so unusual. These dresses are rarer due to their delicate nature and era. The prices for these range from €370 to € 525.

The white beaded dress and the red rhinestone studded party dress are both from the 1950's. They are typical of the Dior New Look style with an amazing nipped in waist and bubble skirt.

The white dress could definitely be worn by a bride as an alternative to the traditional wedding gown. The bead work is immaculate and uber glam! It costs €480.

I looovvveee the red bubble dress! It has scalloped stitching throughout which is the topped off with sparkly rhinestones. This one also has a fab scooped back. It's a major party dress with the wow factor! It costs €320.
