Description

long sleeve backless dress black Incredible Fall 1998 Guy Laroche by Alber Elbaz Runway Black Jersey Re – Shrimpton CoutureThe twin of the dress walked the runway for the Fall 1998 Guy Laroche collection It was made under the creative direction of Alber Elbaz. Alber was at Laroche from 1996 to 1998. The final collection that he designed was the Spring 1999 show and then he moved to YSL Rive Gauche directly after. This dress is an obvious take reissue on the famous 1972 Laroche designed by Guy and worn by Mireille Darc in the film 'The Tall Blond Man With One Black Shoe'.

  • The twin of the dress walked the runway for the Fall 1998 Guy Laroche collection
  • It was made under the creative direction of Alber Elbaz.
  • Alber was at Laroche from 1996 to 1998. The final collection that he designed was the Spring 1999 show and then he moved to YSL Rive Gauche directly after.
  • This dress is an obvious take / reissue on the famous 1972 Laroche designed by Guy and worn by Mireille Darc in the film 'The Tall Blond Man With One Black Shoe'.
  • The dress is made out of a soft black jersey that is a mix of wool and silk. This makes it extremely comfortable to wear. It also gives it a slight touch of modernity from the original. 
  • Like the original it has that deeply plunging and open back. The opening on this version goes right to the top of the neck instead of closing at the back of the neck like the original.
  • The front neck is scooped and sits high up on the neck. The shoulders are soft and the sleeves are long. I love how he added a flared cuff to the ends of each sleeve instead of keeping them tight and fitted. It gives the dress a slightly more fluid feel.
  • It skim over the bust and waist with simple darts, adding shape around the bust area. The jersey makes it very easy to fit because it has some stretch.
  • From there it curves back out over the hip and falls to the floor. The bottom flares out quite a bit to pick up on the flare of the sleeves. There is an inset triangle of panel at the back to give it more flare.
  • The back is fully open and the scoop is deep. This is intentional and meant to have that same shocking effect that the original dress had. Even knowing of the original dress, it still felt shocking when it was seen on the runway. I don't think it's quite as deep as the runway version but it's really dependent on your height and length of your torso. I have provided the measurement from the neck to the base of the scoop below.
  • This is an incredibly rare dress and you may not see one again. I love the double dose of fashion history that this one has with the tie in with the original, as well as being an early piece of Alber's work, plus the documentation on the runway. A collectors dream.
  • The dress is unlined and slips on to wear with no closures. The black jersey has some stretch and I have put the comfortable range of measurements below. Its easy fit and stretch should allow it to fit a range of sizes. It appears to have been worn very little, if at all.

High Quality and Smells Great!
This is so far superior to the standard soaps that you buy off the shelf in a supermarket. It creates a truly luxurious lather and smells fantastic without being obnoxious or perfume.

Body wash
Scent: Aquatic
high-quality body wash with a rich, creamy lather that cleans without drying your skin. The Coastal Breeze scent gives a fresh, slightly tropical ocean vibe with layered notes that feel more premium than typical drugstore washes. It rinses clean and leaves skin feeling smooth, not sticky. ✔ Rich lather + moisturizing feel ✔ Fresh, clean coastal scent (not overpowering) ✔ Feels more “luxury” than basic body washes ❗ Scent may be light for those who like strong fragrance ❗ Slightly pricier than basic brands 👉 Bottom line: A solid upgrade body wash—great if you want a clean, fresh scent and a more premium shower experience without going high-end.

Enjoy a beachin' experience in the shower.
Scent: Aquatic
I enjoy Cremo's body wash products. They work well with my skin and body chemistry. Not overly drying or overly moisturizing. Foams nicely with a silicone body scrubber, rinses cleanly. Scent during the shower is very nice. Smells like sun screen and salt water with some coconut undertones, you feel like you just got back on a boat in the Caribbean after swimming in the ocean. It is not super sweet smelling coconut. After drying, some scent remains on skin, lingers maybe an hour or two, not overpowering, doesn't smell like a teenager. Product performs nicely, good value for the scent, quality of body wash, and size. Keep these coming Cremo, don't mess up this product line.
