So imagine our excitement when we came up with the perfect party dress.

The dress has two layers so it looks like you’re flying while you’re walking.  Perfect for the dancefloor.

Available in silk chiffon with a silk chaffeta layer (seen here).

Check out our Facebook  for different fabric combinations (and become a fan)!

Party hardy.

Look no further than the Wiggle dress.  A cocktail dress in Summer brights made for quickly slipping on (and off). Made of Indian silk and available in Royal Blue, Sour Apple Green, or Hot, Dark and Steamy Pink.

Not into the silks?  Go  Floral, Goretex, Snakeskin on olive, or classic Black taffeta.

No clutch necessary – you can throw your phone and comme wallet inside the pockets.

With a little dash of The Hellers – multicolored ties.

Make me a drink – The Hellers, neat.

Our tooth (teeth?) is (are?) so sweet, it carries over to the way we talk to people.  If you’re in earshot, you might hear a “Hey there sweetpants!” or perhaps a “Honeybun, pass the souvganiah.”

If you’re really special though, you get the one and only, “Hi Cream Puff.”

Inspired by Jake Ryan’s girlfriend, Barbie on a Tel Aviv Beach and the aforementioned dessert, we present you with this stunning number.

Available in black taffeta with jacquard shapes and purple + blackbrick.

Or hand woven indian silks like apple green, kitty pink, dark hot pink, turquoise and royal blue.

Puffy sleeves with a tie.  A ruched mini skirt.  And exploding with taste and style, the Cream Puff.

 Call me cream puff.

Common thread – sweet things in small packages.

Tie as you will.  I love a big bow on the shoulder – and a shot of fine bourbon.

Available mini or above the knee, with 4 different kinds of icing (colors): black, purple, yellow and of course, hot pink.

I have a sweet tooth.

Be generous and wrap yourself up.

Give yourself to the world.

Gift wrapped and ready to party.

So, today we present you with our first double post.  Two posts for the price of one.

First, we have a double feature.  Double double, animal style.   I know you Californians feel me.

The Bow Skirt has the perfect cut AND it comes with a belt.  The belt is handmade and specially produced for The Hellers.  Sequined and beaded for your pleasure.

It’s so cool, we shot it twice in one exposure.

Next, we have the shrug.  Play it up with ruffled sleeves and sparkles.  It jazzes up any outfit AND it keeps you warm!  WooWoo!

Interested? How couldn’t you be?

However, its winter.  And New York is COLD.

So you need to be careful you don’t come down with some flu. Bundle up.  Wear a scarf.  Or just put this dress on, play with your hair, scratch the scarf and add some tights.

This guy knows whats up with the turtle (Get well soon!).

So do these two.  Link arms and become SUPER HEROES!

Heroes in a half shell, Turtle Power!

Or go black and blue.  No bruises necessary.

Or, find your friend and wear them both. Bustier. Skirt. TIMES TWO.

Silver, Blue, Black – Who cares?  I want everything.

Now is when the party begins and you get down to business.  Break out the peach schnapps, bacardi breezers and this black strapless dress.  There’s a killer after party.

You’ve already taken the captain of the football team to the prom.  Now it’s time to take home the Jake Ryan.

Wearing this, that’s a foregone conclusion.

Q. E. D.

But, what are you going to wear?  Stacy, the head cheerleader, is pissed that you are getting all the attention and because you were on top of the pyramid at Nationals.  So what do you want to do?  MAKE JIMMY SWEAT AND RUB IT IN HER FACE!

What better way then by wearing one of these numbers. You and your best friend, Tina, can even wear matching ones. Double whammy.

Available in teal, purple, and pink.

This crazy material is a kind of taffeta with woven clear plastic threads.  I’m pretty sure the future dropped it off in an Israeli warehouse with a note inscribed:

For: The Hellers

From: The Future

Message:

Please make a jacket out of our material.

Thank you,

The Future

Um – Future – it’s done.  Come and pick it up before someone else scoops it up.

The lining of this jacket is a purple version of Wild Stallyns with a metallic purple blue and silver striped hood.  Needless to say, if it’s from the future, it’s deadstock.

Please outfit me with The Future.

The top and hem are a rayon 80s print.

Very lightweight and perfect for impressing the high school boys.

Sexy time.

The body is a unique deadstock cotton pastel degrade from Germany.  Reminds me of Easter.  Pistachio, lemon, pink lemonade.

The top v and hem are a balancing peach rayon.  Yummy.

Inquiries.

The base of this strapless dress is an exxxtra soft cotton from Germany.  Who knew the Germans were so gentle?

The top v and hem are made of a blue/green organza.  Fine Italian deadstock.

Inspiration.

Order.

This pencil skirt is made with linen that is a metallic lavender. Dress up.  Dress down.

Italian Deadstock.

Interested?

I wish I was a woman, just so I could wear this dress.

Purple Black Grey Italian Taffeta.

Purple Floral  Jacquard.

For the Royals.

This dress would look great on me.

With inspiration coming from the Italian Slow Food Movement, this dress took months of retooling and fitting.

This strapless number is made with two kinds of deadstock Italian Jacquard.

Truly a one-of-a-kind piece.  Made to order.

Email us if you like this as much as we do.

The perfect light summer halter, in a low waist cut that reminds me a bit of the 20s.

Deadstock material from Italy. Comfy cotton lycra. White with grey and silver lurex stripes.

Halter my perception.

These headbands are each made from our personal favorite deadstock materials with vintage belt clasps from the 60s.

Hold my hair up.

Outershell: Linen with a light layer of gold.

Lining: The hood, front and back come in a satiny silk jacquard floral. The sleeves are white satin.

All that – and fully Reversible – special zipper and all!!

Size: Comfy Medium or snug Large.
I’m feeling Miami Mun.

Outershell: grey taffeta like material with an insane shine.

Lining and hood: 70s polyester with sketched in stripes in tans and dark browns. Definitely don’t make them like they used to.

The zipper goes both ways, so you can wear this jacket on either side.

Also looks great as a boyfit (duh).

I WANT SOMETHING NEW!

I have to admit, I’ve been a bit possessed lately. I think it has to do with discovering a bunch of amazing new deadstock material and all the love we’re getting online.

In the works (and very soon to come out): cocktail dresses, sundresses, strapless dresses, high waisted skirts, belts, and if all goes well, bathing suits!!!

Keep checking – we’ll be putting up new pieces as soon as they’re sewn.

The inside is the Andreas Banderas lining. You can read more about it here.

The inside lining of the hood is a nike safari print. One of my favorite pieces of material ever. He told me it’s cashmere.

Also great as a boysfit.

I want this for a Safari!

This is the first jacket we produced.  It’s a heavy cotton drill that has a bit of lycra for some added strech.  It resembles a dark denim with a sheen.

Dark shiny cotton drill shell. Blue leopard/zebra silk crepe inner lining. Ice skater alligator rainbow iridescent lycra hood lining.

I want to look like Nancy Kerrigan!

Deadstock. Silk striped taffeta, swiss cotton leopard interior, purple lame interior of hood.

Heidi is one of my best friend’s, Jamie, best friends. I don’t remember when I met her, whether it was in college or later, but I remember seeing her drawings on Jamie’s walls and I always loved her work. Last year I saw her at a wedding and two weeks later she emailed me some of her latest drawings. One of the drawings really inspired me and I decided that it needed to be part of the Artist series.

Black silk taffeta exterior, Deadstock striped cotton hood, Heidi Anderson designed satin interior.

I want it!

I bought these materials in a small store in Tel Aviv. He has a rickety ladder to climb the stairs that leads you to the second level where the treasures are housed. Once a year the owners make a trip to Europe to buy leftover materials from prêt-à-porter designers.

Please, let me own this.

First in the series of artist print jackets.

I met Andreas online through flickr.  I loved his eye. After seeing one of his prints, I was on a mission to incorporate one of his designs into our work.

I still have never spoken to him.

African cotton print with wax seal shell. Lining of hood and jacket is 180 gram satin (digital print of Andreas Banderas).

I want it. Now.

Purple plaid nylon shell. Hood is thickly striped metallic lilac and magenta lycra Lining of jacket leopard silk.
Only one made and currently on display and for sale in London at Bacon Street Project.

This could be considered the start of The Hellers.

Green plaid outside. Dia de Los Muertos print inside.

I want this!
