The Return of the Peek-a-boo Pin-up Tie

tao — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 16:23:49 +0000

Over the years we have had countless rare treasures, but one of the most fun and popular have been the Vintage Peek-a-boo Pin-up Ties from the 1940s and 1950s. They have also become one of the hardest items to acquire. There is good news though. A little company in the U.S. has emerged to make these classics available again. Miss Feeney Peek-A-Boo Ties are available in Canada exclusively through Kingpin Pop-up Shop now at Cabaret, Lower Level, for a limited time.

KINGPIN Pop-up Shop has arrived!

Cabaret Vintage Cocktail Bride – Justine

tao — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 16:23:43 +0000

Hello,

I just wanted to send some of the photos from my wedding… in Guelph. My husband, Mark, and I originally wanted to schedule the wedding for December but I was fortunate enough to have found this beautiful baby doll dress that fit me perfectly and was exactly what I was looking for.

It was perfect as I love all things vintage as you can see from the photos of our home and my engagement ring. We even managed to take some shots at a favourite antique place in Guelph “Chat Noir”. Feel free to use any to showcase this fantastic dress. Thank so much!!!

The Babydoll, part of our Cabaret Collection, is available in a variety of sizes for custom ordering and can be shipped anywhere in the world. For more information about the Cabaret Collection please feel free to contact us.

Ballerina Tiffany Mosher visits Cabaret with She Does The City

tao — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 14:25:33 +0000

A short while ago we had the pleasure of playing host to She Does The City reporter Olga Barsky while she interviewed dancer of the National Ballet of Canada, Tiffany Mosher. Tiffany plays the featured role of Anita in the ballet’s current production of the broadway and film classic West Side Story. Full of energy and spirit, it was a joy having Ms. Mosher in the store. Also while here, She Does The City took the opportunity to showcase her in some of our Cabaret Vintage Classics. Take a visit to SheDoesTheCity.com to see more of Tiffany’s vintage fashion looks. Check out some of the links to the featured pieces (some of which are still available) in our online store.

January Vintage Fashion Notes from Cabaret

tao — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 16:04:52 +0000

With mild weather in 2009, looking out on Queen St. Here in Toronto it seems that winter has finally arrived. However we at Cabaret look forward to the change in season if only for the chance to wear fantastic cold-weather accessories! Of course there are fantastic standards such as coats and capes (one of our vintage fur and wool coats are pictured about) but don’t forget the smaller details. Adding a touch of vintage glam is easy with elbow length gloves, wraps, and of course wool hats. Don’t forget colour as well, a well placed oversized silk vintage scarf can brighten your winter wear when most choose to wear the classic black or brown coat.

However you choose to stay warm this winter, never forget you can still look fabulous doing it.

HAPPY NEW YEAR! WOW 2010!

Happy New Year. Thank you for 2009! May 2010 be the best for you.
