Well even though some of us live a very long way from the fashion capitals of the world, thanks to the WWW we can still get a dose.
In my own glass work I am very influenced and inspired by haute couture - the lines, the moods, the patterns and textures.
And oh how I'd love to see a bit more of the above strolling down High Street Oatlands !!
All of the above images are from various 2009 Collections.

Vraiment Vintage


1930's French Corset








19th Century Lace & Velvet Jacket
As of course you already know, here in the gallery @ 3 Windows in Oatlands we have a mezzanine overflowing with vintage clothing, accessories & collectibles. Most of our collection is a little more modern than these exquisite pieces above that I found on ebay coming from a castle in France.
OH how I would love some bits like these to add to the collection, but they are rather hard to come by in Australia, especially. The oldest piece we have available at the moment is an ealy 1900's black long ruffled , oiled cotton, under skirt.
