Speaking of the lovely Helena Christensen, it seems she has teamed up with Tocca to re-produce some their famous sari's that she donned in her catwalk hey day of the early 1990's. Accordingly to Fashionweekdaily, Christensen was so taken with the sari's that she worn them everywhere, prompting a new fashion trend amongst her supermodel friends. Now she plans to sell them in her own fashion boutique BUTIK under the Tocca "vintage" label. they are very cute and I love the gorgeous sherberty colour - but when did the 1990's become vintage exactly?
I was recently given a beautiful vintage dress from a private collector. She off loaded this party frock to me because the colour of the fabric was in very poor shape. Originally it was a beautiful cream dress with black embroidery. Circa early 1950's, the fabric had not aged well and it was heavily discoloured and stained.
I'm a little behind on my blogging at the moment. The weeks just seem to be flying by! Every week I have the best intentions and always promise myself that I will post at least 3 time (a week) and then all of a sudden it's Saturday again!
Where do the weeks go? Another 7 days have past since I last blogged and I feel like it was only yesterday! to be truthful, it's been a hectic week with university enrollments (another story entirely) and getting the new size ranges for the Rescued by Bowerbird label ready for production
I'm a big fan of crafty people and although I'm not a mother, I do love kiddies stuff, particularly if vintage inspired or made of vintage fabrics. I'm also a fan of knitted gear and recently, while wandering around one of my favourite art & design online mag's, Indie I came across these little beauties: How cute are they?
