The name sounds like the transformation of beautiful old dresses into reconstructed creations, but not quite. The “vintage” here is in the use of 80’s and 90’s cartoon prints – the typical grist of rave-era phat pants – for corset tops and sweet little side-cinched swing dresses. My Little Pony, Space Invaders, Gremlins, Strawberry Shortcake, and the Nightmare Before Christmas are among the motifs, with some wanderings into tattoo flash, monster movies, and Alice in Wonderland. They don’t do custom, meaning it’s all dresses and bodices for now, but you’re welcome to get them in the print of your dreams – and if you don’t see it on the site, they’re happy to help you find it.

Literally thousands of t-shirts that tilt towards the vintage-inspired, although it’s possible to get the Batman logo made over in Afflictionlike tangles, if that’s your thing. Sections include 80’s and 90’s pop culture, band shirts which make sure not to stint on the metal, fantasy and skull images (which is also where they put all the tattoo designs), superheroes, and video games which cover everything from vintage Atari to chat acronyms. Lots of stuff for kids, too, and some of the graphics pop up on hoodies as well.
Handmade lingerie that throws 80’s/emo prints onto pinup staples. Rufflebutt panties, lacy garters, triangle bras, and waist cinchers in leopard print, diamonds, hearts, skulls, and mesh solids, liberally trimmed with bows and lace and retrofemme frill. The hair clips are full of cupcakes and ice cream cones, and there’s a special section for veg-themed skivvies.
Baggy-tee revamps split between 80’s emo brightness and grindhouse cinema. This is the kind of place you can find both bright little apple hoodies and Blood Feast lounge pants, where pink polkadotted ruffle skirts exist peacefully beside Suspiria halter tops, and striped can-can drawstring purses share the page with Misfits hobo bags. Custom welcome.
A UK boutique specializing in emerging designers of the bold and conceptual variety, where one can find velvet rompers, “braided” trousers, plaid jumpsuits, art tees, and other mod-to-modern flauntables among party dresses, separates, swimsuits, and lingerie. The accessories section gets kitschy with 80’s piano-key belts and poofy unicorn necklaces, also going retro in a wide selection of flapper headbands and fluffy hairpieces. Commissions are possible for certain pieces, contact for more info.
A catalog that gets right to the gothic point, eschewing the neutrals in favor of mesh, leopard print, fishnet, cut-outs, tie dye, the occasional paisley, and good old solid black. Versatile for layering and snazzing up a plain outfit by sheathing the limbs in a wild pattern, through tops long and shortsleeved, stockings, and fingerless gloves.
A fifties-eighties-zombie-punk rock’n'roll riot. Skeleton skinny jeans, pop art longsleevers and cocktail cardigans, flowered aprons, velvet frock coats, skirted swimsuits, page after page of pinup dresses in prints both sweet and psychotic. The bags feature dead girl gravestones and glittery brass knuckles, there are jewels and hair things from Kreepsville 666, and don’t miss the shoe section, which splatters neon animal prints onto everything from maryjanes to winklepickers.
