HOW TO RECOGNISE A GENUINE GOODBYE PUSSY
This page is a demonstration. It uses a pair that is not for sale to show how the stages and presentations work, so you know exactly what to expect when an object arrives from this shop.
Demonstration Object
WHITE WEDDING
Pure white. Delicate lace. A surprisingly complicated relationship with innocence.
French by origin, bridal by appearance, and considerably less interested in marriage than the name might suggest.
Intricate lace, tiny bows and just enough structure to suggest that someone, somewhere, had a plan.
- Brand
- Aubade
- Colour
- White, cream
- Fabric
- Lace, elastane, polyamide.
- Condition
- Used. With signs of wear. A little more experienced. Still perfectly respectable.
The Stages
From listing to delivery.
- 01
The B/W Listing Photo
Every object is presented online in black and white. The photograph shows the piece as it appears in the listing, but never the full story.
- 02
The Colour Photograph
The actual item you receive is attached a coloured photo showing more of the original image. This is the proof of origin that travels with the object.
- 03
The Certificate of Authenticity
Each object is sealed, signed and delivered with its certificate, including the colour photograph. Copy-pussys are not possible.
Stage 04
Packaged, sealed and stamped.
This is how the object leaves the shop: vacuum sealed, with the printed colour photograph attached, ready for its discreet journey.
The Archive
How it is presented in The Archive.
Once an object has left the drawer, it is presented on two cards: the catalogue card with its details, and the back with the full story of its life.
