Vintage Barbra Streisand: Fanny Brice the Funny Girl

Posted on | April 25, 2009 | 1 Comment

There has always been a place in my heart for Ms. Fanny Brice, the Zigfield Girl who made it big.  The movie Funny Girl inspired by her life was the first great hit in 1968 starting Barbra Streisand.  In addition to being an entertaining film to watch it has 40s inspired 60s fashions.  Every scene showcases a drool-inducing new piece of vintage glamor.  From hats and gloves, to the over the top Chorus Girl number outfits it is a time capsule and a great example of how clothes can make a movie.

If you are a lover of clothes, vintage or otherwise Funny Girl is a movie that you have to see (or see again).

Cabaret presents the first of our new line of vintage inspired designs

Posted on | April 23, 2009 | No Comments

For those of you who are regulars to our site, you may have seen this blue dress before. Since it arrived this winter many people have fallen in love with it from our window display and inside the store. However, it still hasn’t found the perfect home. We’ve had so many comments that maybe the fit or the colour isn’t a match – but that the style is a dream. So we decided to make the perfect dress for you – all to order.

This dress is the first of many of our all time favorite pieces that can be custom ordered in your preferred colour and fabric custom fitted to your body. We have two samples in store in ivory, the bow detail on this particular piece is available but not shown. We’ve altered the tailoring slightly to reflect the changes in bodyshape.

So if its for a very special evening, or a wedding we can make it perfect for your needs. Contact us for details.

Wear your blooms – vintage spring jewelry at Cabaret Vintage

Posted on | April 21, 2009 | No Comments

Spring is here!  But unfortunately in most parts the warm weather hasn’t arrived yet.  So while it may be a bit to early for the floral dresses and the light clothes, you can still brighten your day with a vintage broach or earring featuring some spring blooms.  These are some of the lovely bouquet of not-so-fresh-cut flowers in our jewelry case. Still lively and full of colour these vintage broaches are from the 1920s to the 1960s.  Crafted from a variety of materials these pieces are a great accent to the winter coat that you may not be willing to part with yet, or as a great accent to an updo hairstyle.

The great thing though – none of these blooms ever wilt.
