Therefore, some of my clothes are getting pretty huge on me, but instead of just giving them away to Goodwill I am hoping that some of my readers are willing to give them a good home.
If you're interested in any of these items, please email me at laurie[at]retro-reporter.com (instead of a comment) to discuss!
DUSTBOWL DRESS
 |
 |
PRICE: $20 + Shipping
This 1930s-inspired dress is in excellent condition. While the age of the garment is unknown (but likely on the
modern side of things), it gives off a stunning 1930s "dustbowl"
vibe. Brand is given as Panache at Rustan, which is a brand from the
Philippines. Dress has buttons and zippers in the back. Fabric feels
silky (could not find a care or fabric layer, so I can't confirm
that it's real silk), while the trim is a peach cotton.
Shipping varies by location and method.

PUMPKIN SKIRT
 |
 |
PRICE: $15 + Shipping. Item sold as-is
This high-waisted, lined skirt is
perfect for the winter and autumn months. Lining is ripped but
perhaps could be replaced or mended by a better seamstress then I.
Personally, I didn't notice the rip when wearing it and only
discovered it when prepping it for sale.
By Moiselle, this skirt was made in
Hong Kong and is comprised of 65% wool and 35% viscose. Dry clean (or
hand wash) only.

BROWN COTTON WRAP SKIRT

WOOL RED PLAID SKIRT

PRICE: $25 + Shipping.
This is my favourite skirt, and if it
still fit it wouldn't be up here! It was already taken in before I
bought it, and the original and current measurements are reflected
below. The skirt is unlined, but wears well with a slip or petticoat.
Age unknown, but it is made in Canada.

acrylic, 5% other. Dry clean (or hand wash) only.
