Please Note- all items sold are vintage finds sourced from estate sales and thrift stores in the Hollywood area of Southern California.
As they are vintage items it is always a good plan to plan to have the items taken to your local green dry cleaner before wearing.
Some items may be wrinkled from storage.
I do my best to catalog any flaws I find in the description of the item.
I do not accept order cancellations for any reason other than I have not shipped the item in the time I promised
Your purchase helps me continue to fund my artistic work as a photographer in Hollywood California. It also helps me to feed my increasingly finicky cat who now only wants the most expensive cat food
