I work in retail and we have flat displays, top + bottom outfit on a board. I think that plus size hangers would be great for representation, and better to accurately display different sizes. Has anyone experience with these? I’m curious if they’d display/read/translate as well to buyers as I’m picturing. I haven’t notice the use of them elsewhere, just plus size mannequins
I do think this could be authentic but looking for confirmation & context/era etc. it is platinum and sapphire, confirmed by jeweler, who couldn’t confidently identify the diamonds as natural or lab. Looking at the diamonds(?) under UV one of them is far more florescent than the others, in general that is normal for diamonds to vary but I’m unsure of, if at the time the Co produced this- would they have been quite picky about all the diamonds being very close matches? Maybe one or some stones had fallen out and been replaced?
I have been looking into this piece on & off for months, at times I see the same one sold by reputable auction houses, but I’m just unfamiliar with the Co’s pins specifically. I have been assuming this is vintage. Any info appreciated!! :)
Polished/tumbled vs raw
Red/orange & white
I’d guess they might be dyed for the longevity of the color, might be natural
Does anyone have any resources for researching old runway images they recommend? I love using FirstView (browser) and MDLARunway (app), as well as Vogue (app) on occasion. But they all have their downfalls. Does anyone know of a well curated archive of 70-90s?
I also follow lots of archives and collectors on IG but obviously that content is quite randomized
