A chance this could be #1970s but more likely #1980s as shoulder pads very exaggerated. Has such disco diva vamp glamour. So I mixed a bit of vampire and disco as inspiration with a contemporary character! It's in pure silk and by CACHÉ another fab American label #vintagefashion
Another piece very 'vamp' glamour. Have a few drop dead gorgeous #goth dresses by Sarah Whitworth whose label Deadlier than the Male based Hyper Hyper Kensington High St. Ghost, Pam Hogg also there
Ah #1980s..such parties..how we danced like creatures of the night to Bauhaus

This one is a very sophisticated early #1960s brown velvet 2 piece that was at some point revamped with a 'psychedelic' lining. Did Emily rob mum's closet and upcycle, or did mommy take a trip? #VintageFashion It will have certainly moved to early Pink Floyd....
Will You Still Love Me...Tomorrow...
This beautiful petite coat is made in fine mohair with fab sheen, velvet trim inc wing cuffs, & dates from early #1960s. Reminded me of a 60s air hostess coat (Pan Am had beige some points) I once had, hence theme of the video! #vintagefashion
