Head-to-Toe Ossie

September 17, 2008 by WendyB

I posted a picture of this Ossie Clark dress before, but it didn’t show the whole dress. Thank you to ENC for lightening up the original pitch-black picture to make the dress visible. I wore this to a Zang Toi event and the Reem Acra fashion show last week.

Speaking of Ossie Clark, my favorite Ossie dress style is on sale on eBay. Check out the auction here. If you bid, don’t forget to snipe!

London, Day 2: The Wizard of Ossie

July 10, 2008 by WendyB

Today was all about Ossie Clark. Ossie obsessives like gorgeous blogger Sharon Rose know that the late designer, who was never good with money, sold his financially troubled line to clothing manufacturer Al Radley in the ’70s. (A large percentage of the vintage Ossies floating around nowadays are from the Ossie Clark for Radley line.)…

Ossie on eBay

June 5, 2008 by WendyB

There’s an amazing Ossie Clark snakeskin coat on eBay. As you might recall, I have the jacket version. Unfortunately, the coat is part of a “live auction.” I’ve never bid in one of those on eBay because of all the extra charges. In this case, the “buyer’s premium” is 22.5%! Plus, I don’t like this…

Ossie’s Back! Part 2

November 9, 2007 by WendyB

Bad photo of a nice Ossie 2004 I had a nice chat with Al Radley this week. Al is the clothing manufacturer who owned the rights to the Ossie Clark name and just did a deal to revive the line. He bought the rights in the late ’60s when Ossie was deeply in debt (clothes…

Ossie’s Back!

November 2, 2007 by WendyB

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….

Throwback Thursday: Gangsta Boo in NYC

Throwback Thursday: Gangsta Boo in NYC

Shout out to Gangsta Boo, my gorgeous rapper friend, for reminding me that seven years ago today, I was her entourage as she visited The Fader magazine office, followed by the Shade 45 music station. This might have been the visit where the Shade 45 peeps assumed I was in the music business and asked, “So…

Year in Review: Remembrances

Year in Review: Remembrances

I’ve had a hanging shoe rack inside my closet door for a long time. Since last month, the bottom few racks keep collapsing for no clear reason — they’ve done it even when there are no shoes on them. Towards the end of November, the bottom four racks fell down with a big bang, sending…

Year in Review: What Wendy Wore in 2019

Year in Review: What Wendy Wore in 2019

I started out 2019 with a fashion choice that was simultaneously rare for me … yet typical. What was rare that I wore a dress that I’d never worn before. What was typical for me is that I’d owned the dress for four years before wearing it once.  And this wasn’t even the longest I’ve…

What Wendy Wore: Nan Kempner Style

I always attend the conferences organized by Initiatives in Art and Culture. At last month’s New York Fashion + Design Conference, I met designers Anna Sui and Zandra Rhodes — and Anna admired my vintage Ossie Clark dress, so I was on cloud nine. CLICK TO SEE ANNA, ZANDRA, AND THE DRESS. I wore a different…
