PGV Premium: Geoffrey Beene, Betsey Johnson, and a fringed Edwardian Bodice

These are some of our dreamiest pieces - the pieces that give you chills when you see them and induce fits of fashion ecstasy when you try them on. We're rolling these plum pieces out over the next few weeks - most have never been posted to the PGV pages. This week, we've got a sculptural Geoffrey Beene mini, a floral silk fringed Edwardian bodice, an iconic Betsey Johnson beachball knit, and a backless '80s bodycon striped mini dress.
Coming soon: a reversible Burberry Trench, two knockout jersey Halstons, a break-your-heart Cardin, couture YSL, and much much more. Stay tuned for fresh vintage.

A little New Year's Glitz

Finding The New Year's Eve dress can get less-than-festive. Feting the bright future calls for serious wow factor and somehow we always end up scrambling for solutions. These three dresses = instant style fix.

Late '60s rhinestone-studded Pierre Balmain


In the airiest silk chiffon and studded all over with teensy rhinestones, this swingy Balmain was made for coy glances behind champagne glasses. It's been altered (probably from a maxi dress) into a shorter more wearable shift. Excellent condition, about a modern 4-6.
---------------------------------------------------------
'80s Betsey Johnson giraffe micro-mini

Trademark Betsey: outrageous b/w giraffe print, daringly skimpy, and lots of stretch for maximum vamp effect. Labeled a medium, about a modern 6-8. Punk label, good condition.
-----------------------------------------------------------

'70s Mollie Parnis plum chiffon evening gown


The classic fairytale dress with the perfect dose of '70s, this Mollie Parnis plum chiffon is a super-flattering dream. The bodice is boned and quilted without being bulky; the skirt is semi-sheer and lined with a nice full sweep. No size label, about a modern 4. Excellent condition.
SOLD

More Betsey!


Another bold print from Betsey Johnson! This punk label gem is in slinky stretch velour and has a seriously saucy plunging back. Not for a shrinking violet (but definitely a racy rose!) Labeled a medium, but clingy stretch fabric means this will fit smaller sizes as well.

Heavens to Betsey!

Betsey Johnson has been bringing us these witty Peruvian meets Punk prints since the Alley Cat days. This sweater mini dress is from her early punk label years and also has a Neiman Marcus label. Featuring beach balls, tugboats, and birds - in primaries on the front, pastels on the back. An irreverent take on the season's ethnic prints trend!

Labeled "One Size", it'll be slouchy on the skinny minnies and saucier on girls with curves.
