    TOTALLY OT: Pink prison uniforms & more

    I've seen lots of TV programs on him and am a huge fan! when the animal shelter first became over-crowded he took animals into his jail. The animals had TVs, beds, better food and air conditioning! he said they did nothing to be there but the prisioners earned their stay. HE'S AWESOME

    Fun to make something like this?

    it's cute but the design is awful and $215 ???? unless you hold your arm still (like the picture) the hunk of stuff will roll right to the underside. if you do try this, use a cuff bracelet, now that would be cute :eureka: hmmmm maybe I will....

    if you don't wear it, sell it! One of my favorite finds was A DVF wrap dress. It's a red print, silk jersey, it never wrinkles- NEVER, I can dress it up or down, but it is one of my favorites because I wear it a ton!

    Vintage Fashion Industry

    I know a few Rockabilly people who live in vintage 40's-50's . I used to, but when I became a dealer, I started loving a broader range of eras. Now it seems anything goes from Victorian to 80's, sad huh :BAGUSE:

    vintage YSL boots help

    OK again, sorry bad pics, good phone/bad pics they really are in better shape than the pics show only a bit of water stain on the tip of the leather toe. I may be able to polish this off. But the fabric part is surprisingly clean. To me the boots look late 60's-70's they have that go-go boot...

    Lending to a stylist

    yes, I too have had bad experiences. Now I will only lend to myself (on the rare occasion I model) and a couple friends. Things easily get lost, damaged, etc. Shoots can get hectic. I even tore a 20's silk piano shawl of mine during the shoot where my avatar picture was taken. The tall heels...

    Old costume help! some Victorian? Fun finds!

    there IS a label in the little black velvet/blue hat. But it looks like the decorations were added to a "skull cap" type of pre-existing hat. The inside of the hat is wool and the stiches for the decorations go right over the label. The label says "Melbourne Original Design" I really got a...

    Hi all. First I appologise for the poor photo quality my camera is OLD and my son lost my brand new one. If more photos are needed I can use my iPhone, I bet it takes better pictures than my camera. I made a great score at an Estate sale this week. I had my arms full of these costumes as...
