Re: wow! those dresses
Mon, June 1, 2009 - 8:24 PMI have a feeling that each of those dresses is an individual vintage score of epic proportion. My suspicion is that the girls Know People. -

Re: wow! those dresses
Tue, June 2, 2009 - 6:20 AMI saw a number of those dresses in a vintage store on Haight in SF. They seem to be vintage-style flapperesque dresses that are made of a beaded chiffon overlay. As I recall they were more than $ 200.00, but beautiful and in all different colors. -

Tue, June 2, 2009 - 10:39 AMWhat is the name of the vintage store on Haight in SF? -

Re: wow! those dresses
Tue, June 2, 2009 - 4:28 PMThose actually look like the outer shells of "vintage" reproductions. An antiques store near where I live sell these repros as flapper dresses, and that looks like the stretch beaded outside, if you took the satin slip away. Maybe you could try that.
I have emailed the store to see what the company name is, but they're kind of like this:
ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...280_.jpg
it's beaded stretch chiffon, with a same color slip underneath. It may be very delicate work to take the slip out, as the sheath and slip may share seams, but it would be very close.

Re: wow! those dresses
Wed, June 3, 2009 - 8:47 AMAlright, I asked about the company that makes those kinds of dresses here, and I got a very snooty "We don't disclose information about our wholesale companies" Up there's. -

Re: wow! those dresses
Mon, June 8, 2009 - 4:57 PMSimply gorgeous! Alas the largest size won't fit me. :( For the price you would think they could accommodate a wider size range.
(Not that I can afford such an extravagance at the moment, but the thought is nice.) -

Re: wow! those dresses
Mon, June 15, 2009 - 5:07 PMThey are in fact reproductions of 20's flapper dresses according to Zoe Jakes when I caught her outside the venue to ask her about them. One of the few things the girls didn't saw themselves, it seems. -
