    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I don't like too many modern expressions, but I do like 'frenemy' and I have one too. One of those who secretly delights when someone makes a nasty comment. My sister married a guy last year who thinks he can say what he likes to me re the way I dress. It's not outlandishly retro, but I...

    BAAAAAAAD Reenactment...stories/pics please

    The size debate could go on forever. Whatever your personal view, it's never going to change as it's not real life but a hobby. I'm a hefty lass but when I got into this I was skinny as a lat! However, all of my uniform is original as are my civilian clothes. Here is a photo from 1942...
