The VFG has a parade every day…a VINTAGE parade, that is!
Each week the VFG seller members are invited to show off
their vintage
that fits a theme. Themes
change from week to week, highlighting a theme
for the season, a particular
color or style, or something just for fun.
We have
some really fun themes coming, so why not join us in the Sneak
Previews forum
to see what comes by?
Upcoming themes are:
Jan 25 The Vintage Boudoir
Smoldering or sweet, vintage lingerie just in time for Valentine's Day
Feb 1 Get the Look: Billie Holiday
"Lady Day" was one of the greatest and most influential jazz singers of
all time, known for her deeply personal interpretations, often
melancholy
sound, and her distinct phrasing, influenced by jazz instrumentalists.
Holiday appeared with big bands (she was one of the first African
American women to appear with a white orchestra when she sang with
Artie Shaw's
band in 1938) and smaller combos, and she recorded extensively.
The most enduring image of Billie Holiday dates from around 1940: At
the microphone, in a beautiful gown, gardenias in her hair, head thrown
back.
Explore her style with 40s rayon prints, dramatic, stage-worthy evening
clothing, striking and exotic jewelry...and of course, flowers.
Feb 8 Birds of a Feather Flock to Vintage Feathers
As an accent for textural interest, or all over to show off nature's
beauty, we think you'll flock to these fine-feathered offerings from
our VFG
member sellers.
Feb 15 Take a Ribbing
Pinwale, wide wale, printed or plain, corduroy endures as a cold weather favorite.
Feb 22 The Wearing of the Green
Vintage clothing is a great way to reuse and recycle...a great way to
live green! So this St. Patrick's Day-or any day-wear vintage clothing
like
these examples from our VFG member sellers, this week in shades of
green. You can go green while wearing green!
