Mark Bridges, the award-winning costume designer, needs pieces for a high-profile TV project set in the early 70s. Doris immediately gets to work pulling. From: L.A FROCK STARS: From Grit to Glamor bit.ly/1ce07CH
Not really... I spoke to her on the phone a few times and she is so rude! My grandmother has designer vintage going back from the 60's and she is not fair
My older sister practically lived in Biba, Carnaby Street. As a young girl I was in love with the Biba logo, still to this day I find it's so alluring.
What's great is that I only reconized the biba brand name because of the small mention of it in the Bohemian Rhapsody movie. Such great fashion from that decade ❤️
Wow it must be hard pulling just based on period without knowing his concept for the show or the charters personalities or colouring. The less information the harder it is to pick the right things. Glad he liked some though.
I am almost 70yrs old and have a lot of my 1960s and 1970s clothes , from various famous designers including cocktail dresses , evening wear , day wear etc . All are in good condition but way too small for me now and I have thought of having them altered but feel too fond of them in their original state as they bring so many happy memories of those years in London . How would I sell them , I am now based in Britain and the Republic of Ireland . Any ideas please ??
Based on what I've seen off the other videos, a lot of her pieces are original designer things (Dior, Chanel, some couture brands). On top of that, the store is in somewhere in Los Angeles (high rent), has celebrity clientele and she flies all over the state and country just to secure pieces. They are very pricey but that seems justified.
there's a difference between vintage and designer vintage which is what this store sells. Most of these pieces are by high end designers who dress celebrities and modern prices are probably in line with her own prices.
Bri Coulter Good vintage is worth it. You can find cheap vintage at a thrift store, but less and less. As time goes on fabric rips, it gets old, and start falling apart. 20 years ago, you could find pieces from the 30-40s, now you never see it. Pieces from the 50s-70s are becoming rarer in thrift stores, and so the pieces left are becoming more vauable. When you buy it online or at store, it's been found, repaired, and taken care of. If you are willing to do the treasure hunt part yourself, you can find vintage on the cheap.
You can most certainly find affordable vintage! My favorite part is the thrill of the hunt. You either have to dig to find good (true) vintage OR you can easily find it. A lot of etsy people rip customers off by saying stuff is vintage and going to the thrift store and buying vintage inspired stuff. But you can easily find either real vintage or vintage looking things while thrifting. That's what I do so i can save money while looking good doing it 😉
I don't undrestand. Is this supposed to be some fashionable show? I really cannot see anything that I would like. Just look like the stuff at thrift stores you avoid.
