Life's a Banquet

So says Auntie Mame. We applaud her festive life philosophy. And, when a banquet actually comes along, we plan to be dressed and ready. In sultry silky party choices from Jane’s Vanity.

The sweeping new Zennor Dresses from Klements make their own special occasion. Both variations, the Reindeer or Witchflower print, use almost 16 feet of bias-cut silk to craft a full-skirted party dress with unique diagonal seaming and witty ultra-long sleeves. A wonderful addition to one’s social calendar.

Surprise is an essential element in a “Banquet Life.” And JV provides one in the form of Vannina Vespirini’s Burgundy Schiap Silk Dress. Its elegant dark red stretch silk, shirred waist, full skirt, and hip flounces give it the quiet impact we all desire for dressing up. JV’s Emily Tate stole the show when she wore this lovely garment during Fashion Week in Paris this January.

An assortment of slip dresses can give you “social security.” So versatile, packable, and easy to wear. Collect the dark floral and high slit of Christine Vancouver’s Moonlight Velvet Gown and the classic perfection of her Meghan Luxe Crepe Silk Gown in choice of black or white.  

To make things click, party-wise, just add a bouquet of stockings. Falke’s sheer black Magic Evening Tight features Art Deco-inspired lurex patterning in choice of gold or silver.  Barazandeh offers the flirty Ivresse Champagne Crystal Swarovski Stay Ups (in clear or black crystal) and the Jasmin Asymmetric Swarovski Stay Ups in fine French black voile with hand-sewn backseam and Cuban heel.

When life’s big invitations arrive, you and Jane’s Vanity accept with pleasure.
