I am thrilled that the Ossie Clark label is going to be revived at last! I know the guy who held the rights to the name and he was trying to get something going for long time. But he wanted something high quality, and someone who would respect the label. None of the Topshop/H&M stuff. Looks like he found the right people!
Now I won’t be as aggravated to see Celia Birtwell, Ossie’s ex, knocking off his designs out of crap materal for Topshop. On the other hand, it kind of devalues my investment in my large collection of vintage Ossie, doesn’t it!

Here I am wearing an Ossie Clark halter dress (and a lot of double-stick tape) in 2003. That’s Gigi the dog lurking at my feet.
Gigi was determined to get in a picture.
I think she wanted to show off her pink ribbons. Sigh. We both look so young there. Gigi has a lot of gray hair now! She needs a colorist so she can go back to being a Bergdorf Blonde.
You look ravishing!!! Wow!
that dress is incredible!
Beautiful! You look SO fine in that dress! Well- you and the dog!
Now I better go take a look at Ossie Clark, I don’t think I’ve ever really paid attention to it before!
Great dress. And, those shoes! Nothing can hold you back in a dress like that—not even the tape 😉 You look fierce.
Slightly off topic, but I loved that book (Bergdorf Blondes). Have you read the Debutante Divorce?? They are on my booklist of non-academic delights
Hi Wendy
You look fantastic!!!
You dont look older at all.
I seriously need classes on Hollywood tape.I was a big mess when I wore tape under a dress.I know the tape I got was the original but it just would not stick to my skin or the dress.
that dress is hot, you look fabulous, I love Ossie Clark
WOW that dress is stunning – looks like one wrong move would be dangerous…. loving the shoes – 🙂
You look amazing! The dress is really beautiful!
And cute dog!
seeexxxxaaayyyyyy!!!
Loves the dress, gosh you’re glamorous!
Looking stlish sweetie.
Exciting news, great dress, and I love your dog! You guys are HOT together.
@ Riz, I think the closest I got to either book was reading excerpts in Vogue! Never bought either. @VintageBunny, sometimes I have a good time with the tape, sometimes bad. It’s really hard to predict! The important thing is to give yourself enough time. If you’re rushing around getting dressed and have to run out the door, it never comes out well. @ Other peeps,thank you for your kind words! In some of my other Ossie-mentioning posts you see me wearing a ivory halter dress with a multicolored print on it…that’s the same dress as the black one.
That Ossie dress is serious WOW on you. And you wore it with red pumps BRAVO! BRAVO!
Va-va-va voom! I’m totally jealous of that body. Even when I was younger, I didn’t have a shape like that. You go girl!
You are so fricken hot it’s criminal.
Fantastic dress!
Now I wanna be your’ dog.
That’s a great news!!! I love Ossie Clark, he was a mod genius
You look amazing in that dress! And your dog is so cute. Let her age naturally 😉 Don’t let her become one of those blondes
Thank you, peeps, for all your kind words. Please note that this was a special night and you should not expect me to look like this all the time! And Mothra, you can’t be my dog because you’re already my monster.
Girl you know how to work double-stick tape out !!!
Not even JLo could do it better 😉
You look STUNNING
Whoaaa!! Simply stunning.
Gorgeous LV on the background :-)))
I can see why you’re an Ossie fan–I enjoyed the link to the other post, too. The fabrics drape in a sexy, alluring way, don’t they? How old is Gigi? Duncan, our darling miniature dachshund, turned 14 last Sunday–he’s extremely in need of some rusty red touch-up color!
We have never been sure of how old Gigi was when we got her, but I would guess she’s about 6 now. Henry is probably about 4. The problem with preowned dogs is you never know exactly how old they are until you saw them in half and count the rings. Or am I thinking about trees? 😉
look at you you sexy minx!! you sure love your ossie so im glad tht=at its making a revival very soon 🙂
Phenomenal dress and adorable dog!
Wwo! You look so gorgeous! 🙂

I’m not even going to bother with the search engine. You’re stunning! Where do I find one?
Cute dog. Great dress, I love it! You look gorgeous in it! I’m loving the sound of Ossie Clark so far. Looks like he’s designed some awesome Fashion. (^_^)
Smokin’ hot!
