Vintage Inspirations: Prairie Tale “Home, home on the range…” Pastel colors, puff sleeves, and country florals were everywhere on the 2019 Spring/Summer runways. It seems designers such as John Galliano and Ryan Lo were inspired by reruns of Little House on the Prairie or the beloved Gunne Sax dresses of the 1970s in the FIDM Museum collection. This week the members of the VFG will show you everything you can wear in your very own Laura Ingalls Wilder-inspired PRAIRIE TALE!
