      @@spotydog22 there is certainly that aspect. "Well curated" takes time and effort, and it's fine if the prices reflect that. :-) The only thing is, if it's made out that "vintage" is for the thrifty shopper on a budget- well, only if you had a lucky find in a charity shop. In _Doris' shop_, you are buying _art_. :-) Though the $200 for a wedding dress was an affordable option ... but that's the one I didn't like at all! ;-)

      The King's Daughter over recent years there has become a definite distinction between ‘thrift’ and ‘vintage’, the days of coming across something stunning in a charity shop are long gone. Donated items are checked, and researched before possibly making it to the shop floor, anything ‘special’ is then put to one side and advertised in order to increase the amount of money raised.

    The Edwardian Irish crochet dress is so stunning. It looks straight out of the recent collection of Alexander McQueen (which I think was inspired by Irish crochet). Like that dress perfectly embodies the vintage-ness of clothes: romantic, nostalgic and yet still feel very modern.

    I wish I could be young again and could do my wedding day over . I would do things so differently . If only I could have my young slim body , porcelain skin and long brown hair back for just a day. I was so hard on myself back then. I was married in 1995 when puffy sleeves and big bows were in style. Next month I’ll be married for 25 years .and I don’t know where the time has gone. I enjoyed this video so much . The dresses are all so lovely.

    The Edwardian dress is gorgeous. I worked in bridal in the 80s. There was a company called Susan Lane's Country Elegance that made gowns in that style. They were beautiful. The peekaboo bodice of the Malcolm Starr is fabulous. The 90s museum piece has gorgeous lace. Reminiscent of watteau. The Juliet dress! The 70s boho! You're killing me here. The cotton lace table cloth with pants. I love it. The wax pearl headpiece reminds me of the pieces the store got from Mexico. I worked in CA and we did a lot of ethnic weddings and Quinceneras. I love the lattice work yoke of the McFadden. Fortuni pleats need to come back. I also like what you are wearing. I just discovered your channel. Subscribing.

    My favorites were the Grecian gown and the Edwardian gown. I loved the 'Juliet' dress but would prefer a lower neckline. I found a beautiful Monsoon slip dress made from white linen some years ago. It has a lace trim at the top and round the bottom. It was brand new and I got it in a charity shop for £6. It would be perfect for a special occasion or a wedding.

    these are beautiful. My favourite is the de la Renta gold lace gown! Love being able to get designer at low prices! I have been binge watching "Say Yes to the Dress" and honestly I would not want to spend 2 month's salary on a dress I can only really wear ONCE!
    I wish that 1) there were more vintage shops where I'm from, and that 2) they came in sizes that fit me :( I'm short (5") and considered plus-size (like a UK 14? so the "smaller" end of the spectrum). While it's not too hard to find clothes I feel good in, it also means a lot of fashion is "closed off" to me just because of size. Looking through the website, many of the gorgeous dresses are too tall/ slim for me.

      @@juliewilson3237 oh! No its more that I am more likely to find clothes in my size in the UK compared to back home. It's not quite horrendous but options (esp for dresses) do become limited as sizes run on the smaller side. I have solved this problem somewhat by adopting a "uniform". I buy black work slacks from M&S and blouses from Uniqlo. And for casual wear, t shirts and wrap skirts. Not very exciting, but easy.

      I spent the better part of the 80s looking for plus size vintage. Overall there were not many fashionable options for young women sizes above 16 until around 1980. Larger clothes were styled for older women. Try vintage style reproduction- get the look but not the hassle.

I did not want a traditional dress but my mother in law surprised me the day before the wedding and offered me her wedding dress of the fifties. It was wonderful and even if a little too big for me I think it looked good on me. At auction I recently saw an old Valentino wedding dress for only 400 Euros ( total with commission 500) unsold. What a pity.

    My husband's grandmothers both wore champaign pink gowns when they married in the 1930's, and I understand that pink liquid satin dresses where the height of fashion in the 1930's. My own grandmother wore a navy blue suit in 1940 because it was wartime and white fabric wasn't available for love or money. I asked her if she was sad she couldn't wear a white dress and paraphrasing what she said to me, "I wanted to marry your grandfather, not the dress, so no, it didn't bother me at all."
