Latest love...

I was on an art trip, all around Sydney last year...
(The photo bellow is on the trip, outside Brett Whitley's studio)



...and just fell in love with vintage fashions
after visiting many shops in Surry Hills.

I have always been keen on op-shopping
and this just made me even more anxious
to start collecting such wonderful cloths.
After wondering around some of the op-shops and antique stores in my area
i came across a recently oped store that has now become one of my most favourite shops ever;
Bang Doll Vintage
For anyone who lives on the gold coast, you have to go and visit.

They have vintage and retro fashions and accessories
for both female and male, at very agreeable prices.
I can not help but buy something every time I go in.

Dont we all just want to have fun...

I adore old fashion glamour.

I collect white gloves, antique chairs and shabby chic lampshades.

The new film "The Duchess" looks amazing. I can not wait to see it and the mixture of beautiful costumes. I thought the 'Marie Antoinette' garments were amazing, so i will have to see how these ones compare... I'll let you know how it is.

The Beginning...

OK. So I'm a dreamer... My name is Madeleine
and I hope to someday be a fantastic world famous fashion designer.
Although... as this may take a little while so I figured i may as well start out by beginning a blog,
creating a collection of my inspirations, ideas and creations.
I hope I can gather together some images that my help to inspire you as well
and assist you along your life's journey.
I hope you like it...

The fashion of so many era's is so wonderful. I love the creations of the past.
