Well, the 2nd Annual Seattle Vintage Fashion Runway Show and Lecture just happened on December 4th as part of the Killer Diller Weekend, and here are some snaps of the gorgeous vintage clothes, circa 1920-1950, that were on display. If you’re a swing dancer, you’ll recognize some familiar faces strutting their stuff on the runway, and some of you may also know the mastermind behind the event, Lorraine O’Neal. Photos are by Jared Luxenberg. Click on the photo to see it larger. Enjoy!
For one reason or another I finally decided to start watching Gossip Girls and I must admit that it’s my new guilty pleasure. The wardrobe is fantastic!! Quick synopsis about the show from what I’ve seen so far: filthy rich high school kids (eventually college bound), teenage drama/angst, love triangles, and the most ridiculous wardrobes ever!
