Cabaret Vintage: 1940’s Billie Holiday-style Glamour Dress
This dress recently appeared on a great segment of E!Talk worn by the lovely Jill Barber when she recently visited Cabaret to speak about her newly released cd and her passion for fashion. We’ve received a few inquires about the dress so we thought we would re-feature this great find.
This is an original 1940s original with some of the beautiful touches that were a halmark of that period. A great stage-style dress, the top of the bodice is a beige coloured netting that has been hand detailed with rhinestones. At the side, the flower accent that graces the hip is comprised of silk handcut and assembled petals of various fabric colours. Together they create a stunning bouquet. As the segment on E!Talk points out, this dress is very Billie Holliday in nature with the great styling and cut of the bodice and hem.

Early Spring Streetstyle Looks
As today in downtown Toronto proves, Winter 2011 is not ready to leave gracefully. However, though there is a bit of snow still on the ground, there are still some early looks towards spring. We love looking ahead to great vintage-look flats in neutrual colours.
For the slightly cooler days, there is still time to show off capes and lots of knits. This lovely duo are visitors from London that found our store on Queen. We’re going to miss the heavier weight wool capes and leg-warmers as spring approaches.
