This post is definitely garden party approved! Just grab pair of  wedges (to avoid aerating your host’s lawn. Unless it needs it, then go for heels(?)) and you’re off to the races.  Both the left (Sold) and right dresses are from the 1930’s & are cut on the bias.  This gives them some fluidity, so they are both a general size small. Fast forward 80+ years to the centre silk dress, by Dries Van Noten. This contemporary boho frock is a size 6. Deco glass flapper necklace sold separately.

We’re going 180° from last week’s look with this fresh, casual/girly display. We got excited putting together these looks for you and people seem to be digging it on the sidewalk and over on our instagram account.  The left is very ‘can’t be late for the safari’, isn’t it? This 1960’s dress is from Holt Renfrew (size 6) and is paired with a vintage swiss watch pendant sold. In the centre we are featuring a hand embroidered silk flower frock that dates from the 1950’s, it’s a size 6-8. On the right we have a contemporary Escada (size 10) paired with a brand new Dolce & Gabbana Miss Sicily python bag Sold. Are you drooling? Perhaps you should contact us for help?

♥Welcome to our 500th post!♥

Let’s celebrate with some plaid, shall we? We’ve been waiting patiently to do this window as collecting enough of the tartan print can take awhile in vintage land. We had to cheat a little bit by sneaking in that gingham number but it plays nicely with the others, don’t you think? It is a size 4 Sold. The plaid pouf on the right hails from the 50’s and is a size 0. The centre 1970’s Geoffrey Beene gown totally gives us ‘Windows of Culloden’ vibes with it’s black lace overlay. It also has pockets for posing with, a true size 0.

We’ve had quite the injection of new merchandise over the last week and this display is just a sampling of what’s now in store. How chic is that centre gown? We are absolutely in love with it,  and this may be because it’s a vintage DIOR from the early 1950’s!!!  It’s about a size 2-4 and would be a coveted addition to any collection. The 1960’s ruffled cocktail number to the left is a size 2, as is the dress on the right.

Our mannequins have gone soft and feminine in 50’s frocks this week. Go ahead and click on the pic to zoom in and see the details, especially on that centre dress. It’s fabric is an organza that is completely covered in prong set crystals, evoking a glittery constellation of sorts.

Left=size 6. Middle=size 10 Sold. Right=size 0

We’ve gotten in some incredible black tie appropriate gowns as of late. These frocks really come alive as soon as they are put on. We love how dark and vampy they are! The left is none other than Dior and is a bias cut silk chiffon so it’s a general size small. The centre trained silk satin gown is a size 4 and is attributed to Vera Wang sold. On the right is silk brocade Nina Ricci and is a size 2.

Last week’s window was a real hit, so we hope you’ll like this one just as much! We have many different decades happening in this pink and grey themed display. The left cotton print is from the 1950’s and is a size 0-2. The centerpiece (our fav) is a true size 4 as it fits the mannequin perfectly. On the right we have combined a contemporary XS Hervé Léger bandage dress (sold) with a 1960’s pink mink and ribbon jacket. Have a question? Just ask, and we will get back to you the same day!

Today we unveiled (pun intended) our fresh Vintage Bridal display. We often get many brides-to-be in and we are hearing how frustrating it is for them shopping at new bridal salons. Not to fear, the Meow Meow is here!  If contemporary designs just don’t do it for you, then try our alternative in the form of ‘something old’.

Left and right (sold) are both hand beaded from the 1960’s, size 8s. Centre tulle frock hails from the 1950’s and is a size 10. *All of our sizing is current with today’s standards.
