I love vintage clothes. I love wondering who wore the item before me - what kind of woman was she? Where did she wear this garment? Was it a favorite of hers? When I saw this dress in a vintage shop on Etsy, I actually audibly gasped. Accordion pleats? Beautiful, intact rhinestone yoke? Sheer flutter sleeves? Whoa. Whoever previously owned this dress was, dare I say, fabulous.
P.S. Who else is a Project Runway junkie? What did you think of last night's episode?
Dress: Vintage via Kisabela on Etsy
Shoes: Kate Spade
Belt: Consigned (via Second Time Around)
Bracelets: H&M, vintage
Watch: Michael Kors
I didn't know this dress was vintage? Makes it EVEN more cool. And I sure the previous owner was fabulous to the max.
