Thrilling experiences

Nothing beats this room is exactly what you are looking for online. You might want to dress of the settlement. This is a very niche requirement. But rather than going in person and schlepping round lots and lots of stores getting tired and asking shop assistants, you can do all by sitting at home. Just negativity. But positively wondering when, had to do it tomorrow.

At the same time

The same time as ever was the big deal, and it was important to do it then. Luckily, it all happens online, and vintage shops online have the answer. Whatever colour you need, twelve days later you will find it so even if you’re poor, what can we do? If you don’t feel well, what? She appears more grown up, more subdued. What do you expect? It’s winter so what can be done? A whole new wardrobe, maybe in black velvet, can sort that out. Gold embroidery detailing is optional. My darling, just wait, just wait. Your time will come. My little crocodile. The dress to suit you is just around the corner. One second and we will play. Just one second more.

The world is against you

Show and tell, show me how you do it. It’s easy to mount a fashion show, just bring together a collection and people will come. Get some people to wear it and a venue. Stream the results live online, you do not need an audience. The trend now is for see now buy now, which means they can buy the collection right after the show. There is no need to wait six months and you will see the summer show in summer and the winter show in winter. Of course this poses logistical problems for the retailer but not many. High street stores have been able to get copies of catwalk shows out in a trice for a long time. Sometimes even before the actual designers do. But it’s been a long time since designers actually needed six months to produce clothes. After all, few are hand beaded any more.

Key Influences

Key influences on fashion this season have come straight from vintage shopping online websites. There are entire warehouses full of vintage clothes that can be borrowed. Designers study them and take key details. They might copy an embroidery here or a sleeve there. They might have a look at a collar or a princess line construction. Designers take away armfuls of clothes to work with. Sometimes they search flea markets themselves and find clothes that they will actually rip apart at the seams. They check exactly how something is made and make their own. Other times they study photographs. They take a theme like rock stars and build a collection around it. or it might not be rock stars, it could be women in a Glaswegian shopping centre. Or nature.

Natural inspiration

Nature has been the inspiration for poets for years. There is that poem about the daffodils. Many poems are about mountains or rolling hills, the blue mists in the distance etc. nature inspiration takes the form of embroideries of actual flowers, floral or botanical prints. There are sixteenth century gloves embroidered in the tiniest of cross stitch in the form of flowers. You are not, however, likely to find such a thing in the course of vintage shopping online unless you are very lucky.

Elizabethan fashion

Many designers have also been influenced by Elizabethan fashion. The richness and inventive luxury of that era is unsurprising as a choice. Embroidery with gold and jewels and layers of fabrics over contrasting fabrics are a feature. The shapes are distinctive – padded, enlarged or tight. The shapes are exaggerated. Even men’s calves were padded, whilst womens waists were pulled in with corsets. They wore long, bell-like skirts and had a cone-shaped torso. They also wore jewels everywhere – on their fingers and wrists, ears and round their necks but also caught in their hair or attached to ruffs. If you study Elizabethan paintings you will find rings in strange places, stitched to clothes because they had not enough fingers. If a ring was a gift, they still wanted to wear it, so they sewed it somewhere conspicuous.

Historical ideas

In the 1970s, even ruffs were worn. Not the huge, stiff ones the same as Elizabeth I. But loose, floppy ones, certainly. Ruffs and pussy bow ties, lots of neck decoration. The skull cap was seen too. Fashion can take inspiration from all eras without greatly wondering why.
