"What I really love about them... is the fact
that they contain someone's personal history...I find myself wondering
about their lives.
1980's pink plated trouser featuring exposed black zip closures at front
I can never look at a garment... without thinking
about the woman who owned it.
1980s raspberry leather moto jacket featuring structured shoulders and a rounded collar
How old was she? Did she work? Was she
married? Was she happy?...
pastel floral shirtdress featuring bold shoulders and pink button closures at front
I look at these exquisite shoes,
1980s vented baby blue leather boots featuring a metallic-sheen finish
and I
imagine the woman who owned them rising out of them or kissing
someone...
glistening gold lame blazer! Pockets at front and button closure at front
I look at a little hat like this,
1980s Bisang Couture black satin dress featuring structured shoulders and peplum skirt
I lift up the veil, and I
try to imagine the face beneath it...
jumpsuit featuring split sleeves and an ultra-drapey pant with tapered leg
When you buy a piece of vintage
clothing you're not just buying the fabric and thread
1980s semi-sheer black pants featuring a metallic silver dot print!
- you're buying a
piece of someone's past."
