An important and ultra glamorous 'Elizabeth the First' Bob Mackie debut label sheer black beaded nude-illusion cape gown dating back to 1969. This rare label is from a very short-lived Beverly Hills boutique that he started with partners Ray Aghayan and costume designer Elizabeth Courtney. They catered to rich and famous clientele. This stunning showstopper was custom made for the beloved actress Lainie Kazan and we were thrilled to see her use the detachable cape for her 1970 October editorial in Playboy. These early introductory Bob Mackie gowns are rare, as they were not mass marketed and were incredibly expensive at the time. This gown is a perfect example of his genius and one of the earliest examples of his nude illusion effect. The fabric itself is a masterpiece; luxurious 'light as a feather' sheer black pleated silk with a tan nude lining. I love the ultra low plunge empire bodice with tons of sparkle glass-beads and prong-set rhinestones. The embellishment alone represents days of couture style hand beading at the highest level. The gown also has the most magical over-sized cape sleeves which can be cleverly removed. This silhouette also emphasizes a woman's seductive shape without adding any bulk or volume to the actual hips. The magnificent pleat work gives the skirting so much depth and texture. Bob Mackie has dressed many legends- Madonna, Tina Turner, Marilyn Monroe, Diana Ross, Judy Garland and Cher among them. This is such a wearable museum worthy piece of fashion and celebrity history that will instantly become a favorite in your collection. We added many pictures so you can appreciate this archival dress from all angles.

Measurements
Bust: 36-38 inches
High Waist: 30-31 inches

This 'Elizabeth the First' for Lainie Kazan Bob Mackie debut cape gown is in beautiful wearable condition with no noticeable rips, holes, stains or alternations. The construction of this garment is impeccable. Perfectly working center hand-set back zipper and bodice double lining. Highly wearable and a true work of art that will continue to increase in value.

Nice jacket!
Size: Large, Color: Dark Indigo Wash
I got this coat for my nephew because he has been begging for a similar one and he loves it! The sizing is dead on and the fabric is a little stuff so size up if you think you'll need to. Great quality, well made!

Cute denim Jacket
Size: X-Small, Color: Dark Indigo Wash
This Jacket is the cutest on my daughter! I caught it on sale which is a plus. Fits my daughter good with room to grow. It had a smell but it wasn’t bad enough to take off any stars.
