THIERRY MUGLER Vintage Military Style Dress with red lining
Stunning vintage Thierry Mugler military style dress with bright coral red lining <3
We love military style dresses especially when they are by Thierry Mugler. This dress is very similar to the styles that were in his Fall Winter 86/87 Hiver Russe collection.
This incredible vintage dress is made from wool and features a and a high mandarin collar, rounded shoulders, long sleeves (which can be turned up to show the lining), a fin pocket detail which can be worn opened or closed, snap buttons with a concealed button closure at the front (also lined in red), gathering at the bodice front and back and an slightly elasticated waistline which is so comfortable to wear. Looks amazing styled with a belt and heels.
This is a perfect power dress - both strong and incredibly chic.
This vintage Thierry Mugler military style dress is marked a size FR38, please refer to the measurements below:
Shoulders: 50cm
Bust: 54cm
Waist: 36cm
Hips: 46cm
Please note that this is a vintage designer item, it has been previously loved and worn, it is in great condition! The only thing to note is one button at the front close to the waistline has been replaced.

Thierry Mugler was a french fashion designer, creative director and photographer. Known for his avant-garde, sculpture-like designs with dramatic hyper-feminine hour-glass silhouettes. His often scandalous designs drew from a wide range of influences including science fiction, film noir, dominatrixes and glamour - to name a few. Muglers’ haute couture and ready to wear shows were revolutionary theatrical productions and he pioneered diversity in casting by including a wide range of ages, body types, ethnicities and gender identities on the runway.
Thierry Mugler launched his first collection titled “Cafe de Paris” in 1973 and by 1978 he opened his first boutique in the 1st Arrondissement in Paris. Through the 1980s and 1990s Thierry Mugler gained international recognition with his exaggerated tailored suits and dresses with ultra-feminine silhouettes. His designs recall 1940s femme fatale and 1950s glamour with broad shoulders, cinched waists and tight pencil skirts which continue to empower and inspire women to this day.
