HERVE LEGER COUTURE

We decided to post this Herve Leger Couture iconic bandage dress back to front, but it wasn't intentional, to be perfectly honest! There are no mistakes in life, so we have realized that the shoulder line is so fantastic that it almost gets a highlight by looking at the dress from the back. But the front is amazing (dig the zig zag bandage detail) and the side profile is pretty incredible, too. This dress is the Couture label and was retailed at Bergdorf Goodman in the late 1980s or very early 1990s...at the height of Herve Leger's moment. Now that Leger is having yet another moment, 18 years later, we hope one of our blog readers will be thrilled to have an original in a fantastic shade of very light powdered rose.

Warning: Herve Ahead!

This Herve Leger is guaranteed to stop traffic--and not just because it's done in construction-zone orange! It's a fantastic, eye-catching party dress with a wide square neck and body-hugging curves that demonstrates why old school Herve is so special. If you're a fan of the color, might we also suggest this Thierry Mugler cocktail dress as well?

Herve, Punk'd

Earlier, we posted some feminine, flirty options from perennial favorite Herve Leger. Today, we're back with more arrivals for the rock 'n roll babe: fishnet sleeves, studded straps, and a whole lotta sex appeal! The first dress looks black in these photos but is actually a deep chocolate. It's super sexy with tiny, pyramid studded straps, a sure-fire ticket backstage at the next Guns n Roses concert. If you still want the edgy vibe with a bit more coverage, the fishnet sleeves make our second dress an alluring option. Finally, go goth in the third little number, a high-neck viscose and diamond netted party dress!

HERVALICIOUS!

As an act of penance for our truancy at the blog, Decades is bringing you more Herve Leger than you can shake a stick at! The latest additions to our collection run the gamut from classic bandage dresses to remarkable, one-of-a-kind creations. With close to a dozen new arrivals, check back each day this week for more Herve madness.

The body-hugging vertical panels in crème viscose make it hard to go wrong with our first selection. It's a great dress for a beginner or a seasoned connoisseur! Our second listing is perhaps our most remarkable Herve discovery to date, though. It's marked Herve Leger Couture and features viscose bandages piped with a luminescent cyan stripe across the front of the dress--truly spectacular! Finally, vamp it up with the open back black viscose cocktail dress in gold trim; we promise, it's not see-though as the photos suggest.

Christina and Jada Rock Looks from Decades

As much fun as the Emmys were, the red carpet just keeps getting safer and safer... after awhile, the most you can muster is a yawn! Not so with the next two Hollywood glamour girls. First up is indie darling Christina Ricci, seen sporting a new 'do in a white Hervé Leger bandage dress at a recent event in Los Angeles.

Meanwhile, actress Jada Pinkett-Smith stole the pre-show at "The Kingdom" premiere in a fuchsia Yves Saint Laurent tuxedo ensemble, c. 1980s. Jada's a perennial favorite here, and she pulls off this brilliant piece effortlessly (Fashion Week Daily agrees). Both gals found their sexy digs at Decades!

RED HOT AND HERVE

A few days ago we listed the black and the white Herve Leger stretch mini dresses and this one in red with a drop square neck comes from the same sexy collection. This one is missing its label...i bet it itched the nape of the original owner's neck, so she took it out. It's pretty much a perfect US size 4...it just needs a fairly perfect body to fill it up!

This Is Not Your Average Bandage Dress, Ladies...

While we love a good bandage dress as much as anyone, we're also intrigued by the contrasts that make this Herve Leger Couture gown a unique find. The top consists of Leger's signature bandage wrapping in a stunning circular shape, flowing out into a full-length skirt. It's a refreshing look for Leger! Fits a size 4.
