Description

long sleeve backless dress Incredible Fall 1998 Guy Laroche by Alber Elbaz Runway Black Jersey Re – Shrimpton CoutureThe twin of the dress walked the runway for the Fall 1998 Guy Laroche collection It was made under the creative direction of Alber Elbaz. Alber was at Laroche from 1996 to 1998. The final collection that he designed was the Spring 1999 show and then he moved to YSL Rive Gauche directly after. This dress is an obvious take reissue on the famous 1972 Laroche designed by Guy and worn by Mireille Darc in the film 'The Tall Blond Man With One Black Shoe'.

  • The twin of the dress walked the runway for the Fall 1998 Guy Laroche collection
  • It was made under the creative direction of Alber Elbaz.
  • Alber was at Laroche from 1996 to 1998. The final collection that he designed was the Spring 1999 show and then he moved to YSL Rive Gauche directly after.
  • This dress is an obvious take / reissue on the famous 1972 Laroche designed by Guy and worn by Mireille Darc in the film 'The Tall Blond Man With One Black Shoe'.
  • The dress is made out of a soft black jersey that is a mix of wool and silk. This makes it extremely comfortable to wear. It also gives it a slight touch of modernity from the original. 
  • Like the original it has that deeply plunging and open back. The opening on this version goes right to the top of the neck instead of closing at the back of the neck like the original.
  • The front neck is scooped and sits high up on the neck. The shoulders are soft and the sleeves are long. I love how he added a flared cuff to the ends of each sleeve instead of keeping them tight and fitted. It gives the dress a slightly more fluid feel.
  • It skim over the bust and waist with simple darts, adding shape around the bust area. The jersey makes it very easy to fit because it has some stretch.
  • From there it curves back out over the hip and falls to the floor. The bottom flares out quite a bit to pick up on the flare of the sleeves. There is an inset triangle of panel at the back to give it more flare.
  • The back is fully open and the scoop is deep. This is intentional and meant to have that same shocking effect that the original dress had. Even knowing of the original dress, it still felt shocking when it was seen on the runway. I don't think it's quite as deep as the runway version but it's really dependent on your height and length of your torso. I have provided the measurement from the neck to the base of the scoop below.
  • This is an incredibly rare dress and you may not see one again. I love the double dose of fashion history that this one has with the tie in with the original, as well as being an early piece of Alber's work, plus the documentation on the runway. A collectors dream.
  • The dress is unlined and slips on to wear with no closures. The black jersey has some stretch and I have put the comfortable range of measurements below. Its easy fit and stretch should allow it to fit a range of sizes. It appears to have been worn very little, if at all.
  • Tagged a vintage Laroche FR36

Paws the vote is in and it got three out of three
Three puppies voted paws up for taste and a little bit of longevity. Now as for value for money. I know how much better than rawhide treats. But I’d like to see the price come down and more chewy’s inside the bag

So so small! Not worth $
The images in Amazon are nothing like what the product is. The pretzels and rings are minuscule. My two pit/lab mixes will eat one in about 30 seconds. So disappointment. Not worth the $ for what you’re getting. I tried to return items which are individually wrapped but they do not allow returns on these products. I have not opened any of them and still not able to return. If you have a dog under 15lbs these may work! If you have a large breed don’t bother. I’m so disappointed. Pictures above is the product next to a small milk bone biscuit (for reference).

A Premium Magnesium Powder From A Brand I Actually Trust
Thorne has a strong reputation in the supplement world, and this Magnesium Citrate powder is a good example of why. Magnesium is one of those basic minerals that does more than people realize. It supports normal muscle and nerve function, helps with energy production, contributes to bone health, and plays a role in cardiovascular function. The NIH notes that magnesium is involved in hundreds of enzyme systems in the body, including processes tied to muscle and nerve function, blood glucose control, blood pressure regulation, and bone development. (Office of Dietary Supplements) Magnesium citrate in particular is a form many people use because it is generally well absorbed and can also help with occasional constipation. That is both a benefit and something to respect. If you take too much, it can move from “helpful” to “where is the nearest bathroom” fairly quickly. I would start modestly and see how your body responds. The citrus berry flavor is pleasant enough for a mineral powder. It is not candy, and it does not need to be. It mixes reasonably well and is easy to work into a nightly routine or use when you feel like your muscles are tight, your diet has been less than ideal, or you simply want magnesium without swallowing another capsule. The biggest selling point for me is the brand. Thorne is not some mystery-label supplement company with a pretty bottle and a warehouse address nobody wants to talk about. Thorne says its facility is NSF certified, it manufactures more than 40 NSF Certified for Sport products, and it is used by professional and national sports organizations. (Thorne) Their Magnesium Citrate product page also states that the product is third-party tested and certified to verify what is in the package. (Thorne) That matters with supplements. You are not just buying magnesium. You are buying confidence that the dosage, purity, and manufacturing standards are being taken seriously. Thorne usually costs more than bargain brands, but with supplements, cheap is not always the victory it looks like on the front end. Overall, this is a high-quality magnesium option from a brand with real credibility. I like it for muscle support, general wellness, bone and heart-health support, and occasional regularity. Just treat it like a supplement, not a snack, especially if you are sensitive to magnesium or already taking other products that contain it.
