This romantic gown was created by Dutch womenswear designer Michael Van Der Ham and walked the runway as part of the brand’s Spring 2014 ready-to-wear collection. Tailored from silk brocade in the most delicate pale pink - peach hue, it is textured with raised organic shapes which form interlaced circles across the cloth. It is cut to a generous, floaty maxi-length. It has halter-neck straps, as well as two shoulder straps, all cut from the same cloth. The halter secures at the back of the neck with a large silver-toned metal hook-and-eye clasp. There is a cropped top that sits over the rest of the dress. The waist of the dress is cinched and embellished with flowers and leaves formed from rhinestones, glass and silver-toned beads and tiny silver-toned rings. Below the waist, the skirt is softly pleated and then falls straight to the floor. The skirt is lined with pale peach matte silk. The top is backed with white cotton. The dress fastens under the left arm with a hidden tonal zip and four large hidden plastic snap closures. In excellent condition - there is a faint hem line which was raised and then let down again. It can only be seen in certain lights due to the properties of the fabric. No size or composition labels remain in the dress so please check our measurements below. The fabric has no stretch and we estimate a good fit for sizes up to a UK 8 or US 4 on account of the small waist. Notes on Designer: Michael van der Ham graduated from prestigious Central Saint Martins with a double award winning graduate collection and worked at Sophia Kokosalaki...

Fine and rare Jean Varon spider cobweb dress which can be dated to the designer's 1973 collection and featured here in the September issue of British Vogue. Fashioned in a sleek black jersey with a slight sheen, it has faceted-domed glass buttons down the front and around the wide cuff billow sleeves. It has a half-length front hidden zip for ease of access. The embroidered tulle panel on the back with applications of beads and sequins forming spiders crawling around cobwebs and has made this dress the most prized of all John Bate's designs. They rarely come up for sale; this has been in Circa's collection nearly 20 years and is notably held in several fashion museums worldwide. In fabulous vintage condition with absolutely no issues and is worthy of museum acquisition. The only thing if we're being very, very picky is that there are two tiny pin holes on the back near the right-hand seam; absolutely impossible to see when worn and only noticed when the dress was held to the light. It is best for a size UK 8 or US 4 and smaller on account of the small waist. Notes on Designer: John Bates was a highly regarded British designer who began his label Jean Varon in 1959. Famous for sheer panels, short hemlines and bare midriffs, he was one of the pioneers of the miniskirt and trousers for women...
