Oscar Dresses

How do I find out what an OLD Oscar De La Renta dress is worth?

My local thrift store has a very unique OLD Oscar De La Renta mini dress for sale. Would it be worth buying and reselling on the internet?

1. check Ebay.
2. If the dress is in good to excellent condition, and under 100$ then it might be a good investment. If it's from the sixties it could be quite valuable depending on who is bidding. He's a classic designer and his dresses always sell well. his custom couture evening gowns from the sixties are fetching in the range of 500 to two thousand dollars in perfect condition depending on the amount of embellishment. Later years are selling for several hundred dollars. This site is called the frock, it's where a-list celebrities buy and sell vintage gowns. It will give you an idea of the type of dresses that are fetching top dollar. Use it in conjunction with e-bay to decide how much the dress might be worth. http://www.thefrock.com/front.html Another site with Oscars, mostly ties and accessories, but it will give you a couple ideas of value. http://www.vintagedesignerclothing.com/delarenta.html This page has one seventies dress, I include this because of the detailed photos of the label and the handwritten couture label: http://vintagelucy.com/2007/11/oscar_de_la_renta_cocktail_dre.html
