The labels I find for this shirt with the closest match and same rn number all have "Designers Collection" on the label. As you can see, this label "Made in Hawaii". Is there another collection from this time period with same rn number? What is the reason for the different label?

Hi everyone. I'm truly stumped on this Christian Dior velvet gown. I believe it's clearly from the 1980s, meaning it was a Marc Bohan design, but I can't find ANY other information for a dress like this online, after tons of research. It also has a Union Label, which I've included a picture of...

Hello all! I found a vintage dress in a thrift store a few years back that I didn’t quite understand when I first took it off the rack. It was hung wrong because apparently the employee didn’t understand it either! I rearranged it on the hanger and instantly fell in love with the dress. It is...
