VPOD: Absolute Luksus/Amey


Tzaims Luksus is known for his imaginative and original use of color in woven and printed fabrics that he produced for American fashion designers in the 60s and 70s.

This Burke-Amey 1970s belted A-line coat is stunning with its vibrant but dark undulating lines with lighter open areas of extraordinarily bizarre floral motifs and contrasting bold blue trim. The fabric Ronald Amey chose for this coat was a Tzaims Luksus warp-printed jacquard designed and produced by Tzaims Luksus, who often worked two to three years on
the design, construction and presentation of his fabrics before offering them to any fashion designer. Per correspondence with Tzaims Luksus, the fabric on this coat was chosen by Ronald Amey from the Tzaims Luksus c. 1970 fabric collection Tzaims manufactured in Como, Italy and also selected by Yves St. Laurent in Paris and James Galanos in California.

It’s a rare and fabulous find for a vintage collector!

(Note that per the Tzaims Luksus Archive Collection Foundation Library, for positive proof that a garment is the fabric and print of Tzaims Luksus, go to Tzaims Luksus and submit information to receive a certificate of authenticity.  Until such details are reviewed, identification of whether you have a Tzaims Luksus print or woven fabric in a vintage designer garment cannot be made.)
