Chanel Spring 2007 White Boucle Jacket with Denim Trim

Now that spring is just around the corner, and soon enough, it'll be time to break out bikinis and hot pants, we thought we'd include a delicious recipre from Mr. Lagerfeld's diet bible: The Karl Lagerfeld Diet by the fashion icon himself (look at what a skinny mini he's become) along with his pal, Dr. Jean Claude Houdret. It's yummy, lemony and only 65 calories a serving. Delish & Nutrish!

Balenciaga Spring 2008 Floral Jacket

The definition of a sculpture is: a three-dimensional piece of artwork created by crafting materials that can be either molded or modulated. We think that applies to Balenciaga's entire Spring 2008 season. So, we'd like to showcase one of the pieces from that collection--also a departure for the young Ghesquiere with a distictive forray into florals--a hyper-constructed
short sleeve gladiator gal jacket with a striped "belt" at the waist. In a size 40. New With Tags, Originally Retailed for $2195, and available at Decadestwo for $1000. For further information or to purchase, please contact: thegang@decadestwo.com








Chado by Ralph Rucci Pink Sequin Jacket

Ah, Chado . . . who knows what this word means? Well, it's a delicate and beautiful traditional Japanese tea ceremony, where matcha is prepared by a skilled practitioner and served, with light snacks, to a small group of guests. Chado is also one of our favorite fashion lines, courtesy of design guru Ralph Rucci. Allow us to present to you a Chado pink miniature sequined jacket, accented with white gossamer fringe detailing. A Chado for a chado, if you will. Approximately a size 6/8 and in mint condition! Priced at $1200. For further information or to purchase, please contact: thegang@decadestwo.com

Chanel Chunky Pearl Necklace

WE were already avid fans of the Cremaster Cycle, so needless to say we were foaming at our mouths for Drawing Restraint 9, the latest cinematic vetnure from art wunderkind Matthew Barney. The film, also a collaboration with his life partner Bjork, incorporates both haunting and beautiful elements such as flensing, the tea ceremony, and petroleum.

Oscar De La Renta Ice Blue Satin Gown

Blue Ice occurs when falling snow lands on a glacier and has the misfortune of being compressed, becoming part of the large ice cube as it makes its way towards a body of water. Drag. Pretty to look at though. The color results from an overtone that the OH molecule creates when it absorbs light at the red portion of the visable light spectrum. The Oscar De La Renta gown below is not in fact crafted out of blue ice (though if anyone could . . .) but rather ice blue . . . satin and features a lingerie inspired interior boned bodice (to keep the twins at full attention) delicate greco-roman halter tie around the neck and in the rear at the ribcage. In a size 6, retailed for $2950 and in mint condition! Priced at $1250. For further information or to purchase, please contact: thegang@decadestwo.com








Oscar De La Renta Black & White Evening Gown

Truman Capote first hosted his legendary "Black & White Ball" on November 28, 1966 in honor of Washington Post publisher, Katherine Graham. The gala was held in the Grand Ballroom of New York City's famed Plaza Hotel. It was considered from that season forward, one of, if not the social events of the year. Nicknamed, the "Versailles of the Sixties", the first Black & White ball boasted an impressive and eclectic guest list including Tallulah Bankhead, Lauren Bacall, and Capote's own elevator operator. Partygoers allegedly heard Norman Mailer rant about Vietnam, spotted Candace Bergen yawning, and spied Mr. Frank Sinatra dancing with his new bride, Mia Farrow. In honor of the Black & White Ball, we picked an Oscar De La Renta gown fit for the fete. Crafted in black and white striped grosgrain ribbon, this dazzling dress feautres black and white beading and black tipped white feather trim on each of the stripes on the skirt. In a perfect size 6 and in next-to-new condition! Priced at $3000. For further information or to purchase, please contact: thegang@decadestwo.com








Oscar De La Renta Spring 2006 Cocktail Dress

In the 1940's, couturiers introduced dancing costumes or dresses, with a full skirt of a shorter length than an evening gown, made for semi-formal or formal occasions. Revisit the fashion forwardness of the WWII era with the fashion forwardness of today's OscarDe La Renta. From the Spring 2006 collection, we have the cream colored version of the black/white gown shown on the runway (see below). In a size 6, this dazzling dress features nylon gathering over cream colored tulle, with a starched petticoated skirt and lingerie inspired boned bodice (keeps the girls where they should be).
