Hello lovely people, Im looking for retro clothing to use in my photo shoots. Dresses, skirt, shoes, ect. If anyone knows of where I can find some really nice stuff to use I would appreciate it, or know of anyone who might have a good e-bay store. Im runnin' out of options as far as online goes. I will also gladley accept any donation for anyone who may not have use for old pin-up/retro clothes I can pay for postage both ways if it will be easier to take off your hands that way.

Other than that, I suggest Fredericks of all places, for lingerie type things. Go to the actual store on Hollywood Blvd. They always have at least two pairs of darling retro shoes in stock and the lingerie for the past year has been very retro inspired. The shoes tend to be rather cheap (Around 20-30) and the lingerie is hit or miss. As for clothes, you just need to hunt around for the small indie designers who are pumping out unique items that every retro girl on earth doesn't already have.

Write me off the board and I`ll give you a crash course in retro shopping.........hell there`s only one kooler thing in the world and that`s car shows!

I found a couple stores in wittier that had good shoe selection and a few dresses but noone seems to carry small or xtra small anymore  Thanks for the help, I will definately keep searching in hollywood. kat xoxo [quo te]Posted by Victoria Lane: You just missed the best time to retro shop, right before VLV.

Apr 21 05 10:59 am Link I buy and sell tons from ebay. There are a thousand stores on ebay and on the internet in general. Also tryout pinupgirlclothing.com for retro inspired shoes, dresses. I agree with you on Victorias Secret and Fredericks for lingerie. Both have alot of retro inspired goodies right now. But ebay you can find better deals.
