Cherie's description of her web site is Eclectic Collectible Couture & Vintage and she has some lovely items.
Here is a little about what she says about herself...".. I adore vintage. I can get lost in the beauty of a fabric and certain dresses will never, ever leave my closet because they belong there - whether they are wearable by me or not. When my burgeoning rooms filled to the bursting with my "collection" just got to be too much and I had total strangers suddenly calling me from referrals from friends to "please help them find them a dress"; when everyone I knew said to me "why don't you open a store?" ...that is when I decided to launch Shrimpton Couture."
Here is an item on her website now- a 1950’s Polished Cotton Tartan Dress. See it under day dresses on her site. Click to view.

Diane is a VFG member from Newfoundland who sells on eBay and is an active member on our forums. She says..."..I have been interested in antiques and vintage collectables since childhood - vintage clothing for the past 12 years. I have been selling vintage clothing and antiques on eBay for over 7 years and have acquired a relatively good knowledge base of clothing from the 1930s onward.

Corrie is a new VFG trade member. She tells us that..."...My emphasis is on clothing from the 1930\'s - 1950\'s. I love and have worn vintage clothing for many years. My attraction extends to everything old...furniture and decorative items. My whole house is furnished in items from the 30\'s - 50\'s. I have debated whether or not I should open a brick and mortar, but right now I am satisfied with selling on ebay."
