An important and ultra glamorous 'Elizabeth the First' Bob Mackie debut label sheer black beaded nude-illusion cape gown dating back to 1969. This rare label is from a very short-lived Beverly Hills boutique that he started with partners Ray Aghayan and costume designer Elizabeth Courtney. They catered to rich and famous clientele. This stunning showstopper was custom made for the beloved actress Lainie Kazan and we were thrilled to see her use the detachable cape for her 1970 October editorial in Playboy. These early introductory Bob Mackie gowns are rare, as they were not mass marketed and were incredibly expensive at the time. This gown is a perfect example of his genius and one of the earliest examples of his nude illusion effect. The fabric itself is a masterpiece; luxurious 'light as a feather' sheer black pleated silk with a tan nude lining. I love the ultra low plunge empire bodice with tons of sparkle glass-beads and prong-set rhinestones. The embellishment alone represents days of couture style hand beading at the highest level. The gown also has the most magical over-sized cape sleeves which can be cleverly removed. This silhouette also emphasizes a woman's seductive shape without adding any bulk or volume to the actual hips. The magnificent pleat work gives the skirting so much depth and texture. Bob Mackie has dressed many legends- Madonna, Tina Turner, Marilyn Monroe, Diana Ross, Judy Garland and Cher among them. This is such a wearable museum worthy piece of fashion and celebrity history that will instantly become a favorite in your collection. We added many pictures so you can appreciate this archival dress from all angles.

This 'Elizabeth the First' for Lainie Kazan Bob Mackie debut cape gown is in beautiful wearable condition with no noticeable rips, holes, stains or alternations. The construction of this garment is impeccable. Perfectly working center hand-set back zipper and bodice double lining. Highly wearable and a true work of art that will continue to increase in value.

cost vs value
Size: One Size, Color: Skyway
Is it worth the price? that's a question that only you can answer for yourself. I mean, it's alpaca - which isn't exactly cheap, and it's nice and warm. The shape is a little odd - it seems a bit loose - so might be better for bigger heads or bigger hair.

Cozy, Stylish, and Perfect for Cold Days
Size: One Size, Color: Merlot
This beanie is absolutely perfect! The alpaca material feels incredibly soft and plush without being itchy, and it keeps my head warm without overheating. The fit is just right — snug but not tight — and it looks great with both casual and dressier winter outfits. I also love the Merlot color; it’s rich, flattering, and adds a nice pop without being too bold. It feels well-made and holds its shape nicely after wearing. Love it!
