I have always been a huge fan of the fashion house known as Azzedine Alaia, who became famous with his work in the 1980's. While on Melrose on day I stopped into a tiny boutique called Resurrection. The amazing vintage store holds the things you can only dream of. A huge Chanel charm bracelet, a teeny chiffon gown with butterfly sleeves by Halston, a backless Valentino gown, and Balenciaga sunglasses from the 1980's. Resurrection has two locations, one in NYC and one here in Los Angeles. I was soo intrigued by the boutique I just had to ask the stylist about some of the uses and places these vintage pieces were used. The boutique is a personal stylist heaven for red carpet events and editorials. So a lot of those to die for red carpet vintage pieces we see all the lovely actresses wearing most likely were pulled from this establishment. They recently used pieces from Resurrection for a layout in in Glamor with a very famous singer and who else was she wearing but Azzedine Alaia! Ohh and don't forget but in case you forgot we were all introduced to Alaia from the classic movie Clueless! When Cher is robbed in the Vally she is forced to get on the ground and screams "But this is an Alaia!!!"
Below are some of my favorite pieces. Hope you enjoy!
