Sunday Times Style Ireland March 27th 2011





This week Dirty Fabulous was overjoyed to have featured in a brilliant article on 'why you should wear a vintage wedding dress' in Style Ireland.
It is a fabulous resource for brides who are wondering if vintage is for them. I'll be adding up a pdf of the article in case you missed it.
Thank you to all involved and to our lovely brides, Jennie, Maria and Alison who looked absolutely drop dead gorgeous in their Dirty Fabulous vintage dresses... we love our customers!!!

Model Faye Dinsmore wears Dirty Fabulous Vintage at the VIP Style Awards



The charming and hugely successful Faye Dinsmore donned a Dirty Fabulous vintage dress for The Vip Style Awards.
I hope you agree that she looks uber elegant in this delicate 1930s beaded sage silk and black ruffle gown.
The contrast is amazing with Fayes colouring, and the whole look makes such a refreshing change from the popular, revealing, sequinned numbers that were on show on the night.
If you want a dress that stands out from the crowd vintage is for you!
Thank you Faye for choosing Dirty Fabulous!

Vintage gloves and jewels...Tres Chic!













The Pièce de résistance: C1950s Christian Dior ivory leather gloves (never been worn, with original tags)

For todays perusal I thought I'd post about some of our gorgeous vintage gloves and jewellery from the 1950s and 1960s.
The sun is shining and it's finally warming up but if your hands are still feeling that Spring nip in the air, slip on a pair of these babies!
Not only are they practical but they will instantly add a bit of 'zing' to any outfit.
Our gloves are from the 1930s to the 60's and range in price from €25 - €110
Amazingly we have two extremely rare, pristine pairs of 1950s Christian Dior BNWT ivory kid leather gloves which are priced at €180 for the 3/4 length pair and €200 for the opera length pair...utterly devine!
