Hi all,

Thank you to everyone who made our North Melbourne pop-up shop a success: everyone who came and took home a piece of my collection, and everyone who helped. Together we raised $629.11 for Cat People of Melbourne and their good work rehoming and caring for cats – and I have over a hundred less garments to store!

If you couldn’t make it – or you’d like more – we’re joining the Round She Goes market this month with a selection of choice vintage womenswear, from 1930s tea dresses, world-war II crepe dinner dresses, 1950s floral dresses, pleated woollen skirts and cardigans, to 1960s button-back blouses and shift dresses, 1970s secretary skirt suits and colourful 1980s tops. Also bringing: early ’90s Comme des Garcons coats, and 1970s Kenzo. Sizes from 6 to 16.

10% of profits will be donated to Cat People of Melbourne. Thank you for supporting this worthy cause – and helping me reduce the size of my collection, which will aid my research into Australian fashion history.

Details:

What: Circa Vintage at the Round She Goes vintage market
When: Sunday 27th July, 10am to 3pm.

We’ll have a card reader so no need to bring cash, although it’s handy for the other traders – with sixty stalls, there will be lots of great vintage available! Hope to see you there.

If you can’t make it, we’re also joining the Melbourne Vintage Fair the following weekend: and will have free tickets at the RSG. More on that soon.
