So I've been a little MIA this past week. Truth is I've been hard at work processing one of the most exciting collections of vintage clothing I've ever had. The Bette collection is vast and primarily dead-stock. Bette did the bulk of her shopping (um...hoarding) during the late 60's and had a habit of tucking things away and forgetting to ever wear them. In fact her voracious appetite for stylish, expensive clothing was so huge that there simply weren't enough hours in a lifetime to wear them all. She bought multiples of everything. If she like a style of jacket she would buy one in every color they came in. Buying a lime green suede jacket? Well then of course you would need to buy the matching shorts!? Often, I will pick up one of her coats to find that inside there is a matching skirt, pant, and dress. Bette favored certain designers: Mam'selle, Anne Fogarty, Modelia, Mr.Mort, Samuel Robert, and Bonnie Cashin (I will be doing a post on all those soon!).
It will take awhile to get through her collection, but over the next few weeks I will be adding pictures and posting on our
Facebook page.
A collection like this doesn't come along very often, especially in new-old stock condition. Fortunately for you, Bette was about 4 sizes smaller than yours truly so I won't be hoarding any of it for myself!
