Presenting a unique treasure from Chanel's Spring 2012 collection: an exceptional "starry night" dress. This dress pays a captivating tribute to the celestial allure of the starry night sky, a beloved motif deeply rooted in the House's DNA and one of Coco Chanel's cherished inspirations, frequently featured in her early high jewelry creations. This exquisite garment is crafted from navy blue fantasy tweed and adorned with striking black and white sequins, intricate braided trims, and iconic gripoix CC buttons. It features a flattering scoop neckline, short sleeves, two practical patch pockets, and a gracefully flowing silk skirt. Originally retailing for $13,600 plus tax, this dress served as a store sample and remains in good condition. Please note that the crystals on two buttons have turned yellow over time. The dress has been altered. Labeled FR38, comfortably fits FR36. Please use the measurements as a guide for the best fit: shoulder 17", bust 36", waist 32", length 52", sleeve 9".
As a bonus, the dress will be shipped with an archival-quality garment bag that is perfect for long-term storage. This will help preserve your piece for many years to come! 🎁
Welcome to Vintage Heritage, a collection of rare and hard-to-find vintage treasures curated by a fashion history enthusiast with over 10 years of experience. While my heart belongs to 90s Chanel, my closet also includes items from every decade - from 1950s Haute Couture creations by Gabrielle Chanel to modern pre-owned pieces, as well as my favorites from other beloved brands, such as Vivienne Westwood, Christian Dior, Dolce&Gabbana, and Thierry Mugler. I carefully curate each piece with a focus on quality, timeless style, and investment potential. Please note that I'm not affiliated with Chanel Inc or any of the other brands listed. All of the items in my collection are from my personal closet, and I take pride in offering authentic, pre-loved pieces that have been thoughtfully cared for.
When purchasing a vintage item, please keep in mind that it has had a previous life and may show minor imperfections as a result of its age and previous use. I take great care to ensure that every piece in my collection is in the best possible condition and ready for you to wear. Each item is stored in a smoke and odor-free environment and will be sent to you freshly cleaned by the finest dry cleaners. To further protect your investment, every item is authenticated by reputable 3rd-party authentication company and comes with an archival-quality garment bag.
Vintage clothing often runs smaller than contemporary styles, so it's best to rely on the measurements provided rather than the size tag. If you have any questions about a specific item, don't hesitate to ask. Reasonable offers are always considered.
Fast shipping is a top priority, and items are generally shipped within three business days via UPS 2nd Day Air with signature confirmation for added security. International shipping is powered by eBay. If for any reason you're not satisfied with your purchase, returns are accepted within 14 days of delivery. Please note that the item must be in its original, unworn condition and must have the security tag attached. For added security, all item details, conditions, labels, and shipping processes are recorded via video to prevent fraud.
Some of the modeling and styling photos used may have been sourced from social media, search engines, and editorials, solely for presentation purposes, and with the utmost respect for their rightful owners. If you have any concerns about photo credit or would like a photo removed, please contact me.
Thank you for choosing Vintage Heritage, and I look forward to sharing my passion for archival fashion with you.
