Vintage that specializes in high-end, drop-dead glamour, from the Victorian/Edwardian era up through the present day. Flapper shawls, clingy starlet gowns, New Look party dresses, glitzy coats, Pucci maxis, with a reworked section that harmonizes these disparate periods together into sweet new creations. The accessories page is full of unusual detours from all-retro styling, preferring a bold, modern look that veers between delicate and rugged: obi belts, body harnesses, rings flaunting chunks of sparkling rock, modern neck ruffs, and chain/fringe necklaces that are as stunning as they are gigantic.

Vintage eyeglasses not just from the mid-century but well into the 80’s, so it’s possible to get cateye styles from both the decade that birthed them as well as the Dynasty era. Aviators, 70’s Steinem roundness, horn rims, all gathered from estate sales, antique vendors, and private collections, and ready for the installation of prescription lenses.
A nylon paradise of old-world unmentionables, gathered from the forties through the nineties. Long sweeping nightgowns and boudoir robes, full and half slips, girdles and medical-laced cinchers, lacy tap shorts and teddies, bustiers and full-coverage bras, pastel bed jackets, everyone’s covered from control-panelled pinups to spandexed 80’s rocker babes.
A mix of hosiery from Wolford to Leg Avenue. Crazy printed tights, vintage seamed stockings, saucy fishnets, bow-topped over-the-knee socks, sparkly legwarmers, Pamela Mann’s insanity, Pop My Cherry’s own house brand, and vintage 80’s Mary Quant stuff still in the package, making this a great place to pick up an electric green lace bodysuit. Thanks, TurquoiseRaven!
The poodle skirtier side of the fifties. Crinolines, puff sleeve and peter pan blouses, capris, cincher belts, sheer scarves, initial necklaces, cateye glasses, hair flowers, and poodle purses to top it all off. They also stock a sizeable amount of vintage finds to grace the repro stuff with some choice authenticity.
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.
This vintage site specializes in recovering punk and pinup-style pretties from secondhand stores along with discounts on name-brand stuff, happy to scoop up budget-conscious glamourpusses into their clientele. Lots of great cheap finds for men, women, and kids – tiger print onesies! 70’s gothic disco dresses! Skull thermals! – including Halloween costumes that were once worn somewhere as real-life clothing, and they also carry Manic Panic hair dye, vintage jewelry, and shoes. Thanks,
