    [align=center]Welcome to the Holiday 04 VFG Vintage Holiday Fashion Preview![/align]


    Do you love vintage and antique fashion, but the styles of the late 70s and the 80s more your cup of tea? Then sit back, put up your jelly shoe-clad feet and shop til you drop! Retro fashions include clothing that is not quite old enough to be academically "Vintage" but has a distinct style that is a direct departure from what is being worn today...and is already inspiring it.

    So look here for everything encompassing years 1978 through 1989!

    Check out the parade going on in our Vintage and Antique thread to take a step back in time, too!

    Adding a bit of "funny" to the Fashion Preview!!
    This is a Bradley Bayou (quite rare) Italian Cafe 1980's suit...
    Who needs the cafe! You can have your eggs and bacon on the front and a latte on the back! A new meaning to "spilled some food on myself"!

  12. ...some divine retro that's just the ticket for the looming, 80s rebirth, here. I'm window shopping, shaving 20 years off of my life, and buying the red dress with bolero; the black, futuristic dress; and the black, bubble dress. That cafe suit: some restaurateur MUST HAVE it!

    Hey Steph! - forget about buying windows - go for VINTAGE!!!! LOL

    materialmemories - I'll post the label when I do it, as I *think* it is a 'rip-off' of Diana's signature...................unless of course, this was her way of filling time whilst the 'old man' was out talkin' to trees and stuff! LOL

    Looking at all this 80's is giving me more of an appreciation towards 80's it wasn't all bad. And what we have here is really divine!

    And Steph I would need to shave off more than 20 years. About 20 years and 30 pounds.
