  GINA FRATINI::Almost Corset Cut, Almost A Night Gown

  7 saves, 1 month ago

  But it's Gina Fratini, so it's perfect--not somewhere between Bill Gibb & Vivienne Westwood, but almost kinda sorta not really. I'd buy it in a second if I could afford it.

  Coco of California::Vintage-a-Peel

  5 saves, 10 months ago

  From one of the best vintage dealers in the world of the internet, even more specifically, the world of Ebay, comes this dress that somehow ventured from my neck o' the IRL woods to hers--perhaps not such a glorious journey. Perhaps so. Coco of California takes up its not inappropriate residence amid the Ossies & Zandras & Varons & Bates--until, that is, it arrives in all its festive glory at yr house.

  Bill Gibb::Kaffe Fassett::Coat of Perfect Everything

  2 saves, 10 months ago

  The fabuluous patterns of Kaffe Fassett, creator of so many of the fabulous saturated striking design appearing on Bill Gibb's knitwear, appearing on an unfortunately, in this case, uncredited Bill Gibb coat.

  GINA FRATINI::It's Perfect, but the Auction's Over.....

  4 saves, 10 months ago

  .....so it is here for, as they say, research. I did not, indeed, as Ebay said, win it on Ebay. This cos, as earlier I said, the drummer flipped. I wish he had not. He was very nice when he was sober. It's hard to think when he is not, & screaming.

  BILL GIBB::& The Bee

  6 saves, 11 months ago

  I cant remember which doyenne said "B for Bill Gibb" & thereby gave him his minor signature, but one can read it in his long overdue & not long enough fashion bio, available on Amazon or Alibris or ABEBooks, preferably from a used bookdealer. However, I do know that this is one of the nicest examples incorporating that trademark that I have yet seen [dig those sleeves, dig that cut, dig that gathering, that trim]--& oh, how I wish it were not eight hundred bucks. For one whose blood runs richer than does mine, sadly.

  vintage-a-peel - vintage clothing from emmapeelpants

  3 saves, 27 months ago

  Gina Fratini was one of the prominent members of the British Boutique Movement in the 60s and 70s; natural contemporary to Ossie Clark and Thea Porter. Her whimsical, romantic confections regularly graced the pages of Vogue and enchanted buyers everywhere. Her use of antique lace and trimmings was her trademark and came as a refreshing alternative to the strong 'mod' look of the mid-60s. This dress is c.1969 (as demonstrated in the gingham frenzy below in Vogue 1969) and is a rare, early piece by a designer whose successes were largely in the 70s. It's an absolutely adorable smock, in the cutest blue gingham with a pierrot collar, oversized gathered pockets and full sleeves into tight cuffs. The whole look is one of Alice in Wonderland; girlish, romantic and wacky. Bust: 32" / Hips: free / Length: 40" Label:Gina Fratini / Colour:blue gingham / Fabric:cotton Condition:Excellent Flaws:None noted. Sold as vintage. £145
