Ruby Rach said...

My jaw just dropped when I spotted the 1950s VaVaVoom bombshell cocktail dress (URL)... it looks like something from Mad Men, and I almost, just almost, convinced myself that buying a dress two sizes two small would be alright - I could just display it on a dress mannequin!

Lisa said...

The red white and blue Pat Sandler was my favorite. Just a KILLER print on that number. And all of the hats, of course. These really are some of the best item photos I've seen on etsy-- so lively!

Sarah said...

Ha, easy one! the "Vintage 1950s LE SOPHISTIQUE Stunning Red and Black PEGGY HUNT New Look Dress with Braided Trim" is out of my price range but to-die-for. There always is a lot to choose from in their shop though!

Alaura Hernandez said...

I'm not going to lie, I'm in LOVE with the "Vintage Victorian GRACIOUS LADY 1890s Brown Wool Suit with Satin Trim". I've always found Victorian/Edwardian clothing so beautiful and elegant! Well, that holds true with all vintage. But whatever!

Caitlin said...

My favorite would have to be the
Vintage 1930s OLD HOLLYWOOD Glamourous Chartreuse Rayon Crepe Bias Cut Dress Covered with Rhinestones! It is super-form fitting, and just amazing! I love her photographic style, as well.

Andrea - Under a Blue Moon said...

I love (and collect) vintage slips so I would have to say the Vintage 1950s CUPCAKE White VAN RAALTE OPAQUELON Frilly Lace Nylon Slip. Althought I have to give an honorable mention to the fact she carries and nice range of sizes and has them categorized as such. Fabulous shop!

J.A. Gough said...

Cassandra said...

Ah! There are so many choices!

But, if I was only allowed to choose one favorite I would have to say the Vintage 1950s Golden Era Formal Party Dress. I would have absolutely no where appropriate to wear it, but I wouldn't really care. Heck, I'd wear it to class if I had to! Or maybe a potential golden wedding dress? The possibilities are endless...

Awh, how exciting :D I was looking at the store earlier this week - I was very taken by the red and black Peggy Hunt dress (I believe you were wearing!). Too good. Love your work :)

Vintagesuburbia said...

I love a good classic, and you cannot go wrong with a beautiful woolen black dress, so flattering and so timeless.
Thank you for a great giveaway!

I love the red Peggy new look coat-dress, which looks like it is sold. (I also love the fact that you are modelling it!)Second favourite is the country picnic dress.Sara

Baby Lou said...

All of the items on Fab Gabs are.. well, fabulous! So it's so hard to choose only one.
I guess at the moment I like this dress the most:

Vintage 1950s HEY SAILOR Heavy Black Cotton Pique New Look Sailorette Dress

I just adore the Goody Gumdrops Cotton Seersucker House Dress. I think I'd find it hard not to wear that everyday if it was mine.

This is such a lovely & generous giveaway.

Crimson Gardenia said...

My goodness. Definitely the 1948 black Lilli Ann gaberdine suit you are wearing.
So sharp!

Right now I love the Indian Summer bittersweet dress (http://www.etsy.com/listing/54394034/vintage-1970s-indian-summer-bittersweet), but in fact there are really too many to choose from. Amazing shop, and amazing that the giveaway is open to international readers!

Lisa said...

I'm a fifties girl at heart but who could possibly resist the KITTY KAT Leopard Pantsuit Bodysuit. I saw this and immediately needed a 'Bex and a good lay down'. I will be dreaming feline delights for weeks - gggrrrr - meow!!!!

garofit said...

it's hard to choose just one! i'm a 30s girl so i'll go with the nora charles cream gabardine suit.

Unknown said...

Oh my, the 1930's Lemon Meringue Gatsby Party Dress jumped right out at me and if I had damn near £100 I'd be buying that sweetheart right away and pretending I'd been at the picnic with everyone else!

Riikka said...

Congratulations Fab Gabs from a regular customer!

My favorite item currently on the shop is the 1930s SPRING FORWARD Aqua Mesh Peplum Suit. So cute!

Please count me in on the giveaway. :)

Michelle said...

wow - what beautiful clothing! I adore the trophy wife dress - it's so gorgeous :)

Thanks for sharing this beautiful collection.

Anneke said...

oh wow, i've always loved this shop! i'd get something for my boyfriend, like the ralph lauren 40s style trousers, and i love the 1950s hey sailor dress! too bad it's out of my price and size range... but i'll keep dreaming.

B Sees said...

Gasp! How exciting - Oh to have the Sass to stand stunningly in the 1940s WICKED ROSE Liquid Silk Satin Noir Femme Fatale Dress with Sequins. Wait... I'll need shoes to go with that beauty... I'll be right back...

ina said...

What a great giveaway! Count me in. My eyes caught the 1950's touring class swing coat, but oh there was so much to choose from...

Esz said...

Oh my god best comp ever! I'm going to enter every day :-D
This is my fave for today - I'm very much into wiggle dresses right now

Katie-Louise Ford said...

What an amazing store! I am head over heels for the red Mexican dress, i'm positive it would make nachos and margaritas taste even better!

Izzi said...

Everything is so beautiful! But I love the shape and flow of the Vintage 1950s CLOUD OF BUTTERFLIES Fully Pleated Silk Designer Novelty Print Skirt.

I *adore* all her items but I particularly love this hat that you model so lovingly:

I think the Vintage 1960s MS KENNEDY Pink Linen Blend Three Piece Suit with Shell is the prettiest set I've seen anywhere for a while! Why is there nothing this good in the UK?

Arcadia Revisited said...

Ooh how I'd wish the shipping and import fees weren't so high to Europe... I might be tempted with the discount, though!

Even though I normally prefer the 30s, my favourite is the Vintage 1940s MAY FLOWERS Rayon Embroidered USO Peplum Dress. I love the way in which the dress doesn't make a show of itself - in a very arrogant, stylish manner.

Claire said...

I love the 1940s WICKED ROSE Liquid Silk Satin Noir Femme Fatale Dress http://www.etsy.com/listing/54063579/vintage-1940s-wicked-rose-liquid-silk?ga_search_query=40s&ga_search_type=user_shop_ttt_id_6460374

Lena said...

My favourite thing on Fab Gabs is no doubt the male model. When will he be on sale?

I have to choose JUST ONE?? :) I'd have to say I love the 1940s Keeping Score dress. I love the 40s, rayon, and novelty prints! Thanks!

40sDiva said...

My favorite item is the 1960s Cream Boucle Duster Coat.... Such FABULOUS detailing! I love everything about it, and even though I do not usually wear 1960s fashion, (1930s and 40s are my eras!) I think this would look fabulous with my older dresses!

Anonymous said...

Oh golly! That 1950's black audrette hat is to die for....love it!

Carys said...

I want the 'Vintage 1950s CHOCOLATE VANILLA Brown and White Gingham Cotton Seersucker Day Dress' so much, it's just lovely!! It was pretty tough to pick though...

Raquel Stecher said...

The 1960s China Chintz dress is gorgeous! I looked through the whole store but that first dress beckoned me back like a siren. I really love the 30s so I do hope I win!

Kim A. said...

I love the "Vintage 1950s VAVAVOOM Bombshell EDITH SMALL Designer Couture Cocktail Dress with Nude Illusion and Draping"! It's gorgeoussssssss!

Minerva said...

There is so much amazing things. Hard to choose. But If I had to, than it would be Vintage 1940s MAY FLOWERS Rayon Embroidered USO Peplum Dress. It looks so nice.

l’abeille said...

Oh I loved all, but my favorite is
Vintage 1920s CATS MEOW Ultra Sheer Mesh ART DECO Beaded and Heavily Sequined Flapper Overdress

ECS said...

the victorian suit is amazingly beautiful and in gorgeous condition. Wish it would fit me.

Idun said...

Alot of love from Sweden and me for the Frosting Fluff Wedding Dress.I just looove it. If only I had a 28" waist to go with it.

Stella said...

I love the Rayon 1930's dress, the rhinestones are perfect and I rarely see those on dresses from that era that aren't completely destroyed.
But there is something about that Leopard body suit that reminds of the adults of my youth!

Wildfell Hall Vintage said...

such a tough choice but I have admired the Orient Express Silk pants for some time now, gorgeous!

Emma said...

I have a little question that I hope you could answer to :) The lipstick from MAC, Russian Red, is it a warm or a cold red colour? Because I can only have warm colours but I can't found the perfect warm red lipstick!

You have a great blog, btw! Take care

MissDilemma said...

I love the Keeping Score dress, it's fantastic :)
Excited to see what comes up in the next couple of days.

It would have to be this dress http://www.etsy.com/listing/52533716/vintage-1950s-country-picnic-cotton?show_panel=true. Prefect for summer with sandals or in winter with tights and a cardigan. Really hoping it doesn't sell until I get some money because I really want it.

Casey said...

Oh my! How exciting! (Thanks to you and FabGabs for hosting this!) I think the thing catching my eye in the shop wouldn't be for myself (though yes, I'll take one of each of the women's garments and accessories, thank you! ;), but for my husband! He's been wanting a 50s/early 60s suit ever since I got him hooked on Mad Men last season... http://www.etsy.com/listing/54481760/vintage-1960s-stiff-competition-dark This would be perfect!

I love that "Vintage 1950s OH CHERIE Cherry Red Linen Day Dress with White Embroidery" dress! I love the vintage, but modern, but still vintage look it has!

I am hopelessly in love with these:

Stephanie Lynn said...

Several of my favorite outfits have just sold in the last week. :( But I still love Vintage 1950s COUNTRY PICNIC Cotton Swiss Knot Day Dress with Orange Roses and Vintage 1940s BIRDCAGE Sophisticated Black Netted Hat by Modern Miss.

Brittany_Va-VoomVintage said...

I'm a hat kind of gal so I love this 1940's birdcage netted hat http://www.etsy.com/listing/55427894/vintage-1940s-birdcage-sophisticated
glorious!!

I am obsessed with the "50's style american rose sun dress" It's so adorable and could be worn for so many occasions. Not to mention how amazing is that pattern? Plus it helps that I have a new love for belting dresses, skirts, shirts...pretty much anything and everything that can be belted.

oh on another note, just wanted to say I love your blog, it's one of the few I check out daily and your fashion sense has totally rubbed off on my new looks. Thank you for the inspirations!
