North Beach Leather Versace Zodiac Sequin Bustier Dress Black Gold sz 3/4 $3000

Description

If this reminds you of the beautiful sequin work Gianni Versace did in his Fall 1991 collection, like the last image on Linda Evangelista, that is because IT IS.

Gianni Versace and Michael Hoban knew each other. They had stores near each other, and Versace in fact loved the shape and lines of Michael\'s rear-zip pants. In 1991 Hoban collaborated with Versace on these \"Zodiac\" sequin and leather dresses and they appeared one year in the Holiday 1991 catalog. This dress which is being sold, also came with a bolero and was priced at $3000 for the set. Hoban even told me at one of the trunk shows (I was the webmaster) that the sequin work was done by the same staff.

This dress is a size 3/4 and is like new. It is clean inside and out, all sequins are intact and was worn 3 times total, and just shortly for photo shoots. It originally came to me as dead stock.

Bolero shown in 1st 2 photographs IS NOT included. That is part of a set that is 5/6 and not for sale. THIS LISTING IS FOR THE BUSTIER DRESS IN SIZE 3/4 ONLY

Returns / Exchanges

Given the uniqueness of a lot of the pieces I sell, I generally cannot do an exchange for a different size etc., but am open to exchanging for another item depending on the condition. You may note that most of my items are marked as \"No Refunds\". This is not really true. is making many changes to returns and forcing conditions on sellers, starting in September and required by Holiday 2015. These are fine if you are selling something like a book, toaster or general item. When it comes to collectible, rare, one of a kind, or say fashions that are new with tag, these conditions are not reasonable. I do the best to describe my items, including measurementsand trying to ensure fit. If in doubt, ask questions first. In some cases, especially some of the better items, and because online for fashion can be tough, I do let a buyer see fit, but I ask to be notified before hand and ask that I be notified and the item returned promptly within 24 hours of receipt. If I missed something, something is wrong with the piece, please contact me, lets start seeing if it is something that was listed or shown and was missed, or it was an error on my part.

So why not just do the \"Hassle Free Returns\" - because they can and do greatly affect my bottom line. Hassle Free Returns let a buyer purchase an item, wear it for two weeks, say they don\'t like it and in most cases the seller also pays the shipping - In short, I would be paying to ship and have shipped back a piece you wear for two weeks and add wear/decrease value of. While says seller can appeal, this is \"after the fact\" and it becomes a real messy issue.

Why post all of this? It is a huge issue. Many sellers, especially in the niche I occupy have a huge issue with it. Many of us also understand that because of thiswe need to protect ourselves more and that also means many of us will be selling less items, especially better pieces where we are bearing too much risk. This is a lose-losesituation and I promise in the next 12 months, you will start seeing a drop in the quality and availability of a lot of the great items myself and similar seller carry.

So long and short, when in doubt, contact me right away. If there are issues with fit or condition of the item - contact me right away. It should not take 2 weeks to receive a garment and not know whether it fits, or if it does not live up to the description. What does happen in two weeks, people might wear a piece out once or twice and take a near new or new without tag and now it is clearly worn.

Fixed Price / Best Offers

Be sure to look at my fixed price listings as well. Some of these do not show up as regular sales but are some of my better pieces. As a rule of thumb, if you offer 25% of my asking price it will probably be rejected. 50%, I will probably make a counter offer. 75% - 80% generally gets it done, but as luck will have it, I have had buyers by at full price while offer/counter offers are happening, so if you really want it, best to just Buy It Now

Payment

Buyer is to prepay and pay shipping in US Funds. Payment is expected in 3 days unless other arrangements have been agreed upon. After 3 days I resserve the right to RELIST or make a second chance offer.

Shipping

Shipping in the US is generally by USPS Priority Mail International Shipping is generally by Express Mail. PayPal requires delivery confirmation for seller protection as well as I have been noticing much slower deliver Air Mail to Europe and France in general. I do combine shipping, so this helps reduce the charges. In many cases the item arrives in under 5 days, so there is less waiting and less wondering on when the item will arrive. I try and ship 3 times a week (Tues/Thurs/Sat). On some occasions I will miss a shipping day do to travel or my schedule. If you are pressed for time on an item, please let me know ahead of time, or use the Buy-It-Now to help speed shipping.I prefer to ship to PHYSICAL addresses only. If you need top ship to a PO Box or a UPS Store, etc, please contact me prior to offerding.

International buyers

I do over half of my sales internationally. Majority of items have no issues. Occasionally there are delays through customs. PLEASE NOTE, ALL CUSTOMS, DUTIES and IMPORTATION FEES are the RESPONSIBILITY OF THE BUYER. I do my best to help avoid this situation by declaring the items as gifts, etc, but it can happen. If a buyer refuses to pay customs duty and the item is shipped back, ALL SHIPPING COSTS ARE COVERED BY THE BUYER. Don\'t forget. I do combine shipping, so it does make sense to buy more than one item and spread out the shipping costs

Blog / Mailing List / Fashion Site

Lots are in the works. I am in the process of starting a blog on interesting items I have sold / am selling, as well as on some of the incredible buys, or amazing items I come across of and elsewhere. Drop me an email to find out where or if you would like to be notified when I list new items (I generally list Sunday - Tuesday, more frequently Fall/Winter versus Spring/Summer) I also have a web site launching dedicated to fashion leather, designers, etc.

TERMS

Items are sold \"As-Is\" and we do our best to verify authenticity and condition. Per guidelines, we reserve the right to cancel any buyers with no or negative response. Refunds are only given in case an item is misrepresented. I do my best to go over all items and describe as best I can. Most buyers find my items are better than described WHEN IN DOUBT, PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS. IT IS BETTER TO UNDERSTAND TERMS, CONDITION, PAYMENT OPTIONS BEFORE HAND THAN AFTER.
