Beautiful Vintage Accessories for a beautiful and elegant bride








I adore these detailed photos of the lovely Marie-Therese on her big day.

Photographer Lisa O'Dwyer was on hand to capture the special moments of this wedding and we are only delighted to be able to share them with you.

The bride chose a selection of vintage accessories to compliment her modern wedding dress. The gloves, bag, brooch and earrings are all from Dirty Fabulous. As too is the stunning headpiece which Caroline made for Marie-Therese using a 1950s vintage necklace.

I think you'll agree that the whole look oozes regal elegance.

Vintage Coats and Cover-ups








So far we've managed to avoid the Big Freeze but there is still a nip in the air and of course only an odd shower or two which means it's impossible to go out without a few extra layers.
Vintage coats and cover-ups can range from the elegant, extravagant, delicate, Avant Garde to the sublimely sumptuous!
Whether its a structured tweed coat from the 1960s, a satin rhinestone drenched cape from the 1950s, a draped lace shawl from the 1930s or a structured fur from the 40's...if you need to protect yourself from the elements whilst still retaining your inner goddess then vintage is for you!
Come and see what Dirty Fabulous has to offer...

Cathy Davey wearing Dirty Fabulous Vintage on The Late Late Show Jan 6th


We are absolutely huge Cathy Davey fans here in Dirty Fabulous so we were chuffed to bits that she wore Dirty Fabulous vintage on her recent appearance of The Late Late show.
Cathy wore a stunning black velvet hourglass gown with rhinestone neckline and chiffon draped shawl. It was paired perfectly with one of our crystal embellished headpieces.
The whole look was very Old Hollywood!

Love it!!!
