  • This dress has been dated by the one that is its twin and was part of the 2014 exhibit 'Chicago Styled'.
  • It was made under the creative direction of Thierry Mugler.
  • The dress is made out of a light in weight metallic gold fabric that drapes beautifully and is perhaps a touch paler gold than how it photoed here.
  • The dress is cut with Mugler's masterful eye and attention to detail.
  • It drapes up and over the shoulders with wide panels of the gold. On one side the fabric is heavily gathered and hooks in at the waist underneath. On the other side the dress comes out from under that and is not as gathered so that it falls more down and over the top of the shoulder.
  • The side with the wider shoulder is set into a panel that runs down the opposite side of the dress.
  • This panel is finished with gold studs and this is where the dress closes. The panel runs all the way down the side to where it splits for the hem. There is even a weight added inside the base of the panel to hold the dress perfectly in place.
  • The body of the dress is all gathered into that side panel. It wraps around you and then is gathered into the panel at the back. This creates incredible draping down the body and around you.
  • The vertical side panel draws the dress up a few inches above the hem and this then creates a bit of an angled curve along the lower hem of the dress that beautifully picks up the angles on the bodice.
  • This is a spectacular and very rare example of his work.
  • The dress snaps to close where you see the studs at the side and underneath that there is a hidden set zipper. A grosgrain ribbon wraps around the waist and is attached to the part of the bodice that tucks underneath the crossing over at the front to hook to close inside the dress. It is very cleverly put together. 
  • I love how the entire dress shimmers in the light because of the gold metallic fabric.
  • The dress is partially lined through the bodice and fully lined through the skirt. There are little padding shells set through the inner shoulders but it feels like their inner padding has been removed at some point. It would be easy to add padding back in if you preferred a stronger shoulder.
  • There is no size tag present so please go by the listed measurements below.
  • Excellent condition

Bust: approx 14-19" flat across from side seam to side seam
Inner hooked stay at waist: 12.5" flat across from side seam to side seam. Without the stay the waist is 13.75" flat across
Hips: to 18" flat across from side seam to side seam
Bodice: 14.5" from top of shoulder to inner waist
Total length: 40" from top of shoulder to end of the side panel, 49" to the longest point of the hem

Modern Sizing Equivalent: XS-MED

Quality shirt. Not too blousy.
I'm 5'11" and hover around 175-180 lbs. so I'm a pretty average guy. I've been thin my whole life but now I'm in my 40's so if I don't watch it, my stomach will get bigger. I bought this shirt in slim-fit first. It was perfect but since these shirts are 100% cotton, I was concerned that after a couple washings, it would be too small (especially in the stomach area). I returned the slim-fit and bought this regular-fit (medium). For this review, I thought it would be helpful to compare the Amazon Essentials shirt to The Gap's regular oxford shirt. I've always liked the fit of Gap oxford shirts. Upon inspection, the weight and feel of the Amazon oxford cloth is exactly the same at the Gap's. I laid one of my old Gap shirts on top of this Amazon Essentials oxford. You can see from the pictures that the torso cut is exactly the same (about 21 inches pit-to-pit seam). I like that. I'm not a fat guy and I don't want a blousy shirt. This is neither too blousy nor too slim. Just right. The sleeves are perhaps 1/2 inch longer than the Gap shirt. Perhaps one negative is the tail. The Amazon Essentials tail is 1.5-2" longer than the Gap shirt. This makes the Amazon Essentials shirt a touch long for wearing untucked in my opinion. However, if you do tuck, a longer shirt stays tucked-in. So it depends how you want to wear it. I have a lady who does alterations. She'll charge $10 to shorten the tail if I wanted that. If I do have the Amazon shirt altered, it would still be a bargain. These are good quality shirts with a nice cut to them. I won't hesitate to buy them again. Highly recommended.

Decent quality. Sizing is normal but a bit generous in the midsection
Fit Type: Regular Fit, Color: White, Size: Large
I was impressed. Shirt is of fairly decent quality- thick cotton. My husband is normally a large. Given the sizing chart we almost ordered a medium, but it was good we bought a large. The sleeves are perfect but afraid it may shrink in the dryer. I think the reason people say loose fit is because it is boxy (square). Fine under a suit and we needed it urgently.

With this shirt I say I do
Color: Khaki, Size: Small, Color: Khaki, Size: Small
This shirt definitely compliments the suit my son bought. Very light ,very comfortable,not quite tight fit ,but I can say that it fits perfectly .It matches well with a few colors ,purple being one of them . For having a teenager that at times mistreats his clothes ,and just throws the clothes on the hanger really any way . Not many wrinkles was really on it and I really had to fight whatever that was in his closet just to take this out and it was hanged up . For having it for more than a month I say not bad . It is worth it. And if it was me I wouldn't have any wrinkles on it what's so ever. Very delicate and easy to move in it. My son wore it to his friend's graduation party not one wrinkle on it afterwards. Very casual look. I will buy more for him
