To Dior or not to Dior, that is the question.....

While researching for another post I came across this image and thought that it looked very familiar -

This is an Yves Saint Laurent for Dior 1958 cocktail dress. 

It was listed as having perspiration stains, fabric splitting and, brooch pin marks.

It sold last month through KerryTaylor auctions for £3,400.

(That's €4230!)

If this dress tickles your sartorial taste buds then get a load of this! -

 This original 1950's cocktail dress, by Abe Schrader, is in Dirty Fabulous right now for the rather more affordable €310

Bust-34"

Waist-26"

Or perhaps this ravishing emerald satin version?

Also an original 1950's cocktail gown €310

Bust 37"

Waist 34"

An absolute stunner!

Goodbye USA Hello New Stock!!!

So we're back from our big American trip!

It was awesome, exhausting and hugely successful...we've only just about recovered.

The weather was amazing, the people interesting and the vintage curios...well curious!!!

A giant American eagle

Some gold painted tooth moulds anyone?

I thought this box of Cupee dolls was interesting and a little freaky!

My little boy Ruben, playing out side our house for the week...it was huge!

A cute little red and green wooden house nearby. We'd liked to have taken it home too!
