So there are some dresses that always be in our mind, if not in our closet…
Think about Givenchy LBD in "Breakfast at Tiffany", who can forget it, right?
What are the designer dresses that left you speechless the moment you saw them?
In my case, I never forgot this Roberto Cavalli dress worn by Victoria Beckham. I've never been a great fan of Roberto Cavalli print in general, a bit too loud for my personal taste, but this dress is just so stunning (let's have a look at David too, it never hurts)

Love this thread!

For me it's the red stunner from Dolce & Gabbana Fall Winter 2012. If I could only get my hands on it!

^it's gorgeous! Will keep my eyes peeled for you, you never know…

Another stunner is this floor length gown by Hedi Slimane for Saint Laurent. I know he many detractors, and I must admit I was not a fan either when his first collection came out, but I must admit that his creation have grown on me.
If I only had the occasion (and the money) to wear this dress….

I'm very lucky, I've managed to buy/acquire

this Gucci runway purple croc jacket from 2006 (present from my uncle, just as well because I would have never been able to afford it, ever.)

I also got this military style skirt and shirt from Gucci AW 2009

and this fab black narrow but silk/satin Jacket with leather cuffs from Balenciaga from SS 2007

But the most fabulous AW2007 piped jacket/blazer has always eluded me :pout:

I love this little skirt! I was looking for something similar a few years ago but had no luck. I love your collection!
 
tough one - I like a lot of the dresses in my sister's closet haha :biggrin: - if we're talking runway Donna Karan spring 2011 RTW has always stayed with me, I like a lot of the stuff she put out that season, esp these:
