Maggy Reeves couture vintage gown size M(estimated)
Maggy Reeves was a couture designer in Canada and her pieces are as rare as rare can be. It is a delight and privilege to share with you pieces from her custom made works I recently acquired!
This dress is extraordinarily beautiful, It is constructed of light fabric with check print.
Back part is the piece of art - open back, heavily covered with flowers, skirt is very wide and moves beautifully. fully lined with fabric I think is silk.
craftsmanship is insane, it's impossible to see anything at par in modern pieces.
pit to pit 20"
waist 32"
lenght shoulder to bottom 56"
Maggy Reeves was the rage among Toronto's fashion scene of social elite. Celebrities including Karen Kain, Marilyn Lastman, Eva Gabor, the late Vivien Leigh and Margaret Trudeau were seen sporting Reeve’s designs for upscale events.
Reeves and her team would go the extra mile, as twice a year she would import the highest quality materials from France, Italy and Austria. She would work day and night with her team of 11 European-trained seamstresses to produce novel and artistic design.
It’s even rumored that each gown would take up to 300 hours of labour, and at the height of her career she produced 200 gowns a year.
