VPOD: Vintage 1966 Scaasi Oscar Gown for Mitzi Gaynor


vintage scassi oscar gown for mitzi gaynor

scassi mitzi gaynor

A September 2010 Los Angeles magazine poll reports that 19% of shoppers admitted to buying an item because a celebrity wore it. More interesting is that the same poll showed that 24% of sales clerks have LIED about telling a customer that a celebrity bought an item just to sell it!

Don’t get caught in this trap.

Learn what you like to wear. Discover what looks good on you. Listen to that tiny voice inside that will always guide you toward your best wardrobe choices.

Dressing authentically is what makes you cool, hip, chic and sophisticated. Dressing like a celebrity just because you think they’re cool…well, that’s plain ol’ imitation.

And consider this: Many, many celebrities don’t even dress themselves! They rely on stylists to tell them what to wear where and stylists are constantly being wooed and influenced by the fashion industry.

Of course, there are times when dressing like a celebrity makes sense.

If you’re building a vintage clothing collection, clothes worn by celebrities, especially at famous events like the Oscars, can be valuable investments.

Take today’s VPOD for instance. This stunning custom gown by Arnold Scaasi was worn by Mitzy Gaynor to the 1966 Oscars. The pink silk and tulle are embellished with sequins, paillettes and iridescent baubles that dazzle and shine.

Today’s value for this magnificent creation?

A cool $13,500.

What a gorgeous celebrity-owned find for a hard-core collector who just happens to be a vintage fashionista!

Available at Antique Dress.
