The 2003 Louis Vuitton City Guide to Paris, Volume I, published by Louis Vuitton Malletier in English and illustrated by Rubén Toledo. The guide explores the French capital through its cultural institutions, architecture, restaurants, hotels, boutiques and neighbourhoods, from the grand boulevards and historic quarters to galleries, independent bookshops and the addresses of the fashion and art worlds. Read today, it is a portrait of Paris at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Louis Vuitton has published its City Guides since 1998, written by independent authors rather than by the house itself. This copy has never been used and is in very good condition.

Christian Dior footless tights from the 1980s, in mixed colours, from the house's licensed hosiery. Cut to end at the ankle, they belong to the aerobics and studio dressing of the decade. Hosiery was among Dior's first licensed categories, beginning with stockings in the United States in 1949. In the 1980s exercise became a fashion subject: Jane Fonda's first workout video appeared in April 1982, and leotards, leg warmers and footless tights moved into everyday dressing. The tights are footless and in mixed colours. One size, with measurements given on the packaging. They are in excellent vintage condition.

A Givenchy pendant necklace signed and dated 'GIVENCHY 1977' on the reverse, with a round pendant split between cream and black resin under a raised gold-tone Givenchy monogram, on a box chain. Hubert de Givenchy opened his Paris house in 1952. By the 1970s the house offered costume jewellery under its name, and the monogram had become a design motif in its own right as visible logos entered luxury accessories. The pendant measures approximately 4.5–5 cm across, on a chain of approximately 60–70 cm. Good vintage condition, with light signs of wear and some discolouration to the metal, consistent with age.

The catalogue of Hommage à Chanel, a retrospective of the house of Chanel held in Rome in 1987, published in Italian as a softcover. It appeared four years after Karl Lagerfeld became artistic director of Chanel in 1983. In 1987 the house also launched its first watches, and Lagerfeld photographed his first Chanel advertising campaign, with Inès de la Fressange. The catalogue covers archive pieces and tailoring alongside 1980s designs. Good vintage condition, with minor shelf wear to cover and spine.

A Cartier jewellery brochure from Hong Kong, dating from the 2000s. The matt front and back covers show a close-up of panther print with the Cartier logo in gilt, and the descriptions inside are in Chinese. It has 11 pages, in A4 format. Cartier was founded in Paris in 1847, and the panther has been one of its emblems since the early 20th century, closely associated with Jeanne Toussaint, the house's director of fine jewellery. It is in very good vintage condition.

An Ungaro ballpoint pen from the 1980s, covered in pink ostrich leather, with the logo engraved on the metal fittings. It weighs 37 g and measures 14 x 1 cm. Emanuel Ungaro opened his house in Paris in 1965, and in the following decades the name was carried into accessories and desk objects. It is in excellent vintage condition.
