Sexy Sant' Angelo

Posted on 2:07 PM by feeqwfqewef




Picture this: Cindy Crawford on the set of a Herb Ritts shoot for Vogue circa 1989...what would she be wearing? Probably one of these super sexy stretch gauze dresses with long straps that can be tied in all different combinations. The best thing about this dresses...tie 'em up in a ball, throw them in the bottom of your 40 cm Birkin and when the moment is right, just stretch one over your body, step into 110 cm Louboutins, a splash of something seductive, some big and bold jewelry, and you will be a head-turner!

Giorgio Sant' Angelo 1980s stretch gauze dress both marked size 1 or equivalent of size 2-4 modern. Black. SOLD

Courregeous Take on the LBD

Givenchy makes Chubby SEXY

Posted on 4:59 PM by feeqwfqewef

A marabou feather chubby is not for everyone. But this Givenchy concoction in the 70s in a delicious rust is cute useful for dramatic entrances over little cocktail dresses, or perhaps a full length gown, or very Helmut Newton with a pair of tux pants and a revealing silk blouse. This may not be everyone, but we know the right someone is reading this blog and making the right decision to own this!

Yves Saint Laurent Costume Necklace

Posted on 5:30 PM by feeqwfqewef
Could this Yves Saint Laurent necklace have been inspired by a confectioner's treat--a divine swirl of Swiss chocolate, say, or one of those ever-so-scrumptious black & white cookies? Or are we just badly in need of an afternoon snack? Either way, the only word that accurately describes this piece is yummy. Strands of white and chocolate brown pearls link to a fabulous swirled ornament, making a statement without all that gold.

Yves Saint Laurent Chocolate and White Pearl Necklace with Decorative Bauble, c. 1970s SOLD

The Color Purple.. Bill Blass Style

Posted on 3:39 PM by feeqwfqewef
Yes, we're a little obsessed with the prolific American designer Bill Blass. But how could we not be, given sexy arrivals like this floor-length studed maxi coat in purple leather? Gold and jeweled studs add a biker edge to a coat already oozing sex appeal. The coat is circa 1970s, and is fairly narrow--best fits a size 4.

Bottega Veneta Arrives at Decades!

Posted on 1:11 PM by feeqwfqewef
Decades is pleased to annouce the arrival of four Bottega Veneta bags from the early 1980s! These sumptuous leather goods are proof that good taste never goes out of style. These bags are sure to fly off the shelves, but don't worry--more are on the way.

The chocolate intrecciato leather used for this clutch portfolio is sure to catch the attention of envious onlookers; after all, it boasts the intricate weaving technique that has made Bottega Veneta famous the world 'round. The pristine physical condition of this article is a testament to the quality and workman-ship found in each piece from the Venetian fashion house. With two zippered compartments, it's perfect for holding all the essentials (and a few non-essentials, too). Dimensions are 14.25" by 9".

We feel for you, ladies. It seems you're expected to carry everything in your bag these days--cell phones, wallets, small animals, and the like. At least with this black leather shoulder purse with knotted strap, you can do it in style. Open the rounded flap, and behold! a drawstring compartment provides space abundant for your Blackberry or Bichon Frise. (Now, if only you could fit an orthopedic practioner in there...) Dimensions are 13.5" by 12".

This slouch hobo in soft navy leather packs a few surprises that are sure to delight the discerning fashionista. Playful leather tassles dangle from a drawstring in intrecciato leather, loosening to reveal a spacious compartment lined in yummy suede. Woven shoulder straps offer the discreet mark of luxury that distinguishes Bottega Veneta. Dimensions are 15" by 11.5".


Last, but certainly not least, we bring you a slouch shoulder hobo in eye-popping amethyst leather. The interior is lined in pristine crimson suede that's so soft, you may be tempted to flip it inside-out (resist the urge, though--amethyst is pretty darn sexy, too).

C'est chic, non? Dimensions are 16" by 12.5".

Bottega Veneta Dual-Zip Intrecciato Clutch Portfolio in Chocolate Leather, c. 1980s SOLD

Bottega Veneta Slouch Hobo with Rounded Flap in Black Leather, c. 1980s SOLD

Bottega Veneta Tassled Shoulder Slouch Bag with Two Compartments in Navy Leather, c. 1980s SOLD

Bottega Veneta Crescent Slouch in Amethyst Leather and Crimson Suede Trim, c. 1980s SOLD

Thierry Mugler One-Shoulder Party Dress

Posted on 3:53 PM by feeqwfqewef


Are you ready to party like it's 1999? Well at least the summer of '99, when this dress first walked down the runway. White crepe one shoulder with very mod plastic appliques details hanging off the above-the-knee asymmetric hem. We are really into Mugler and although this piece isn't officially vintage yet, it is officially collectible and uber sexy for 1999 or 2007!
