What a lovely idea!

Retrogirl--I love that dress!

I'll have to take a look and see what I have also---there are a few things that don't work for me.

I figured I'd put this on here. Its somewhat small for me, so if any one who has dropped some weight wants to swap with me, that would be great. Or if you like me, and you just buy things even if they are too big/small for you lol.

I have the dress on my daughter, just so it would photo better. Obvioulsy its waaaaaaay to large for her lol.

So beautiful! I think it would fit me, but alas I have nothing!

But it's really pretty. And this thread is a marvelous idea! Hopefully I'll get more vintage clothing soon.

Hip: 19
Shoulder to waist:17
Waist to hem:31
Condition: Great! Small stain on bodice, but hard to see with the busy print. May come out, I haven't tried. Very slight under arm staining- side zipper

definitely have a separate thread/forum/section

I agree with pdxvintagette, there should be a separate section for vintage swapping. Anyway, count me in, too! I just have to buy a camera in th beginning of August, and will be all set to swap!

MBH, I've always loved those white/rhinestone earrings of yours. I'd love to have them. Not sure what I could swap though.

Also, I have a necklace of yours that I still need to repair.

Cool! I'll put them on your pile. ;) Don't worry about swapping quite yet, I'm sure something will come up...

Orlon Cardigan. No closures. Really great condition, and I just had it dry cleaned. Up to 44" bust I'd say, but will really fit any size since there are no closures.

Earrings lot. The white multi look like Weiss but aren't signed, the yellow confetti lucite are signed Coro.

Also, I have two Ragos to trade. One is 36D and one is 34D, black and white respectively. They both fit me. They have both been used, so I don't know, is that yucky? If so let me know. lol
