Celebrating The Sound of Music

To mark the 60th anniversary of the movie The Sound of Music, which premiered March 2, 1965, the VFG is pulling out the stops and tooting our horns with pitch-perfect vintage fashion that will fill your heart with the sound of music. It’s as simple as do-re-mi: Vintage musical novelty prints, charms, jewelry, even clothing labels—our favorite things!
