One of the hardest things about being a vintage trader is selling your favorite pieces. I often find myself hiding my best dresses at the back of the rack so nobody will buy them which obviously makes for excellent business practice! Well, two ladies recently discovered my prized pieces and I now find myself mourning the sale of my two favorite dresses.
My beautiful 1930's silk wedding gown was bought by a goddess who seemed to have time-travelled here from the 1940's. It fit her like a glove and couldn't have gone to a lovelier lady (1940's goddess if you're reading this I'd love to see a picture of you in it). And my favorite dress of all, my 1950's prom dress, was sold to a contemporary dancer who will be wearing it in an independent film production of Cinderella which I can't wait to see.
With the sale of these two beauties I've leant an important lesson - to hide my other favorites even deeper in the rack next time!
