Fripperies combining Victorian propriety with burlesque tease, resulting in decadent cancan accessorization. Lots of headpieces in fascinator clips, long black veils, and flowery little hats trimmed with netted veils and trailing ribbons. Neckwear is also abundant in ruffled lace chokers and vampire-aristocrat ascots, and it’s a good place if you like your stuff studded with cameos.

Retro accessorization darkened with horror. Hats and fascinators, glitter hair roses, plenty of vintage-style vampery for those who like their glamour straight up. For more visceral tastes, psychobilly creeps about in Frankenstein cameos and cocktail rings, pearl skull bracelets, and eyeball hair clips. Special requests welcome.
Retro fashion of the tight and wiggly variety, with a predilection towards satin and leopard print. Bustier tops and blouses, pencil skirts, and clingy dresses, with corsets and cami sets and little nighties in the lingerie section. Accessories include tattooed purses and a robust shoe section perfect for pinup coordination. And for actual performances, they’ve got fans, parasols, and wigs that pay very close attention to the bangs.
Lingerie flavored with vampy little trimmings: ruffled balcony bras, french knickers, tie-side panties, camis and nighties, luxuriant robes to throw on over everything. The goods are sold in coordinating lines which is great if you’re in love with a particular fabric, as you might be able to get it in matching capelets, slippers, cuffs, or blindfolds/eyemasks. Of note are the garters dripping beaded tassels.
Flapper fashion cross-pollinated with floppy-hatted L.A. bohemian in soft explosions of lace and tulle, reminiscent of what vintage shopping in the sixties must have been like. Much of it is concocted from found fabrics and elements, and spiced up with period flair: turbans and cloches, harem pantsuits, detachable tattered capelet/bustle combos, bed jackets, “cuff cakes” for the arms and ankles, chandelier necklaces, and a page of 20’s dresses scooped up from various well-dressed eccentrics. Also some bedroom decor and glamorous little dolls.
Cute retro lingerie handmade in London, presented in sets of balconette bras and boyleg knickers, but also buyable a la carte. Bust ruffles, gingham, bows everywhere, and the inevitable ‘tock frills.
Lingerie tidbits handcrafted from vintage fabrics, for both wedding celebrations and unabashed can-canning. The bridal/Paris 1928 styles tend towards off-whites, golds, and pastels trimmed with sparkles and floral lace, while the Moulin Rouge goes for black ruffled satin and the Modern PinUp opts for splashy color. Custom is welcome and encouraged.
