Nothing says holiday style better than furs and haute couture, and BLOUIN Lifestyle has its eye on an Artcurial sale taking place December 14 at the Hôtel Drouot in Paris.
Leading the evening dresses is an ultra chic LBD by Moschetti-Giaubert based on a Christian Dior pattern from the Yves Saint Laurent era, likely from the house's F/W 1959-1960 collection (est. €100-150). An ivory silk Pierre Cardin number with a black sequin body has a more fun, disco vibe to it, as does a 1955 Christian Dior frock in degradé peach tulle embroidered with beads (est. €500-600 ).
In the fur camp, a double-breasted fur coat in dwarf leopard by Schamroth, circa 1965, has a nice classic feel to it (est. €800-1200), while an anonymous circa 1970 fox fur is great for those feeling a little more in touch with their wild side (est. €400-600).
The sale also offers a range of accessories to finish off the looks, ranging from Chanel handbags to Goosens jewelry by Yves Saint Laurent, not forgetting a collection of jewelry pieces once belonging to Elsa Schiaparelli.
