MOST WANTED: White with silver foliage designs bustier Elizabeth Taylor gown
Here is another gown in the famous bustier design that Nolan did for Elizabeth through out the mid to late 1980's. The costumes Nolan designed for Elizabeth for her TV movie "Poker Alice" were the inspiration for what would later became Elizabeth's go to awards gown look. Elizabeth loved the way the period gowns she wore in "Poker Alice" accentuated her body in all the right ways-- the synched in corseted waist, pushed up bosom, covered upper arms, and long flowing skirt became her staple look. This gown is enhanced with a silver glitter foliage design through out the white fabric and rhinestones along the décolletage.

WANTED: Black and white assymetrical lapel Alexis suit
Joan Collins first appeared on "Dynasty" wearing a simple black and white suit with a large dramatic hat. This striking look really set the tone for the style of Alexis and her character wore many black and white suits throughout the shows run. Out of the many black and white suits Alexis wore on the show, this is one of my favorites. It is simple but unique in that it has a lapel on only one side of the jacket. The contrasting colors of black and white in the jacket, lapel, and skirt gives it a sleek, modern, and edgy look. The sketch for this suit is stunning, and reveals that a large black and white hat was originally part of this design. Joan wore the large hat with the suit for promotional pictures but when the suit appeared on Dynasty a small white hat was used instead. I prefer the dramatic wide brimmed hat of the original design.
