Womens Herve L Leroux Bandage Dress Orange Cutout Criss Cross Back Size 42 / US XS Brand New with Tags Retail : $2,760.00 Internationally known thanks to the success of his first label, Hervé Léger, Mr. Leroux (the name he assumed after losing the rights to Léger) helped create one of the defining styles of the 1990s in the form of the bandage dress. It was formed from dozens of elasticated bandage-style strips of knitted cloth, creating a body-sculpting, skintight silhouette. In 2000, Mr. Léger founded his own independently financed fashion house, Herve L. Leroux, adopting a new surname that had again been suggested by his old friend and mentor Mr. Lagerfeld. Mr. Leroux showed a new collection in 2013 as a guest on the Paris couture calendar after a 12-year hiatus from the catwalk. But he never again achieved the recognition or fame he found under his previous name, underscoring the creative and commercial struggles that can ensue when a designer’s name is no longer the designer’s.
