Swanky Online Vintage Fashion Exhibit: A & L Tirocchi

Gowns from the '20's and '30s? Right here, baby. Beautiful presentation put together by the Rhode Island School of Design Museum.

Great site - I love the vintage patterns and fabric, would love to see them in real life - should be ripe for reproduction though I bet some of the beading and detail work could never be replicated.

I love everything shown here! These eras are always among my favorites.

This sent me off on a hunt for great repro fabrics. Luckily, ReproDepot has enough to satisfy me for the moment.

I won't start a Rank The Swank thread about this exhibit because I can't find a schedule of where it's going next. I saw it today staged in a mansion in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. If you like period screen costumes from movies like "Titanic", "Evita", and "Ever After",
click me.

Thanks, Ponine.

Unfortunately for us but fortunately for the costumes, no photography was allowed at the exhibit in Oshkosh.

Awesome! My favorite costume exhibit was the LOTR one I saw when it was at the Boston Museum of Science.

I think I would like to see that one. If I end up at an exhibit like that, I always, always buy the program. They took photos, and they will always be 100 times better than mine anyway.
And, if I want to make one, I wont have the time to be as detail oriented as I'd like anyway.
