Bonnie, I agree that Morgan should be able to find a large brooch or fur clip for this project. I have the Joseph of Hollywood book, too, and there are several pieces attributed to Joseph of Hollywood in the book that were/are actually pieces by other makers - including a piece of fine...

I don't think this helps but I had to try! I "Zoomed" in and then "Captured" this. It doesn't look like the earrings match the brooch. I see pearls or faux pearls in the earrings, and I see gold tone metal and blue stones in the brooch - and maybe rhinestones but we really can't see any...

Morgan, What a great project. The design of the brooch looks most like an Eisenberg, and a little bit like a Mazer but it's really large! I don't recognize it. The size reminds me of this Staret brooch - which is very large - but the design is very different. Are there any photos...

I sold these - they were amazing - about 5" long! I still have these - I don't know if they are '70s - probably earlier but I can picture them out on the Disco Dance Floor: The rods are plastic.

Hi Laura - Since the company is still in business, you could contact them and ask them if they recognize the piece or label. I think it is a "Tori Top." Our LR entry is from a few years ago but I know that Josh Feldman is currently CEO of the company. (I live in Hawaii.)

I believe this is might be a Tori Richard top. There is some information about this company in our Label Resource - and this top seems to fit the description of their early pieces - and the "Tori" part looks similar. I think if you open the label it will read "Tori" ...

Not "truly" Renaissance but these have the "feel." Purchased separately - about a year apart from different sources, the earrings are unsigned and the fur clip is signed DeRosa. Personal Collection.

@Amberella1964 -We're very glad you and found us! Welcome to the VFG Forum. We look forward to sharing your vintage finds with us!

Not sure what happened to the image above.

The RN # is for Lucie Ann - Here is some information about the brand from the VFG Label Resource: https://vintagefashionguild.org/label-resource/lucie-ann/ It looks like there might be a label next to the care (washing) instructions - check and see if it reads Lucie Ann and has anything else...

Hi Morgan - Welcome to the VFG Forum. Please post photos of the skirt and show us all the labels - it will help us help you!

I looked through a few bins of samples and found these: Sadly Pierre Deux is no longer in business. For those of you who did not live near large cities or are not familiar with the name, Pierre Deux was the voice of French Country in the US in the '80s until they closed in 2011. They...

I don't have any in my house or personal collection but I am very aware of this fabric and used it in interiors throughout my interior design career. I probably have some samples out in the garage....I'll take a look.

Here are a few of my favorite floral pieces - from my personal collection: Unsigned Deco brooch Early Réja Brooch Trifari Bouquet Fur Clip Déja Fur Clip Coro Pot Metal Hyacinth Brooch (And the one in my signature!)

Thank you, everyone. This five-part workshop was presented in 2010. You can access the other parts by clicking "Vintage Jewelry 2010 by Linn" at the top. Many of the photos that were submitted with questions have been removed but all of the photos in the presentation are still "live" and...

I agree that it looks like it's '50s - and of course you can wear it with anything.

Try this - I had to search through some old emails. Her name is Stephanie Brawner - she sells vintage rhinestones and her sister Melissa does repairs. This is a link to the vintage stones: https://www.etsy.com/shop/prettysnazzysupplies I didn't look to see if she has what you are looking...

Try Matthew Ribberach (sp,?) at mrstones.com I Googled his website and then searched for montees but you can probably ask him if these don't work: https://www.mrstones.com/search?q=montees I also tried Fire Mountain Gems and searched for sew on rhinestones...

We do not give values, but we can tell you that your dress has the ILGWU label used from 1963- 1974 https://vintagefashionguild.org/label-resource/union-label/ The Geoffrey Beene Boutique label was introduced in 1967 or 1968 - and looking at the colors used, I would put it right around there...

MS - great piece! I remembered another Boucher I have - this one is Sterling and is signed - I think it is from 1945:

Boucher - (unsigned) Ballerina - "Sonia" - C. 1949 - Personal Collection

I knew Mary Foster and had planned to talk to her about Malia but never did. I know that Malia stopped making women's and men's fashions and concentrated on making uniforms - and is no longer in business. One of my neighbors worked for them when they made uniforms.. This article contains...

I agree with Marian. It had a skirt, originally.

It looks very '40s to me, too.

Hi @Bobbs - Welcome to the VFG Forum. Thanks for telling us about yourself and for posting your wonderful bed jacket. We're glad you've found us! Feel free to share any items you have questions about and photos of your cats!

According to a search I did earlier today - there is a Hilo Hattie store at Ala Moana Shopping Center. Pomare closed their store Hilo Hattie store at 700 Nimitz Highway in 2015 and Pomare (the parent company) filed for bankruptcy. I believe Pomare is still in business but only making...

I agree with Karin - '50s.

C, 1970s Mexican - Silver "Suit" brooch marked Laton 925 - sold.

It looks '40s to me, too - and I agree it's stunning!

I had the same thought but only "one" cufflink?
