There seems to be a huge interest in vintage fashions these days. I, however, don't get excited by it. I feel like I'm in the minority.
Are the dresses the ladies on Mad Men really feminine? Yes. Do they look nice? Yes. Can I picture myself wearing something like that? Umm...no. Is it my style? Nope. Would I spend my sewing time whipping up something Mad Men-esque? Unlikely.
So I will remain true to myself. If anyone else feels the way I do...give me a shout! I'd love to know that there's someone keeping me company on the Non-Vintage Bandwagon. :)

I am not "into" vintage unless you count the '70s. Just because the proverbial "everyone else" is doing it, doesn't make it work for me!
ReplyDeleteWell, honestly, I do love the dresses. BUT...1. I do not have the figure for them. 2. I work from home, mostly in sweats and a tee, don't go out much, and don't see myself wearing those to sit here at my computer and design websites, or to the grocery store. I guess I am just too old. Seems to be all the rage on the blogs though. Do they
ReplyDeletereally wear those styles out? I have never seen anyone wear them, the young people I see out are all in jeans. I can't see sewing something I cannot wear.
I'm not on the bandwagon because honestly, they all look like costumes to me. Lovely, well-made costumes, of course, but it is so not my style.
