Beautiful Client Vintage Spot!

This is my most favorite type of post to do
a picture of a gorgeous client sporting her Shrimpton Couture find!
Check it out as the gorgeous Alicia dons her latest treasure
The Black Orchid Petal necklace by The Glamourai for the cameras.

I love how she paired the necklace with a crisp white shirt and kept everything else simple so the necklace makes a statement. It never hurts to be a stunner either.
You look amazing Alicia!

Alicia posted this for me on Twitter

Rachel Zoe's Photo Shoot!

Rachel is posting pictures form her photos shoot on her twitter stream so I thought I would share them with you - its an instant behind the scenes look!
And she is wearing vintage so how can I not?


She tweets:
Behind the scenes look at my website photoshoot—shot by the insanely talented Andrew Durham. I'm wearing a YSL jumpsuit, Chanel gloves, and hat (all vintage) with a Hermes cuff and YSL boots. playing dress up :)

Looks like the jumpsuit trend is still going strong for Rachel!

Chic In Paris & Dior

Earlier today I posted Marion Cotillard in a pretty pink Dior dress so was excited to see fellow tweeter, Susan aka Chic In Paris (twitter.com/chicinparis), live posting pictures from the Dior Couture show as she watched them come down the runway!

They are fantastic and it looks like the collection was as well!
Super sexy and so vintage inspired as he has been doing for the last few seasons!

Who is buying me the pink pouf dress?

As I mention in the article the interview came about after receiving a note from her PR team thanking me for writing this blog post on Norma's early years

I am very pleased with how it came out and was even happier that I had the brilliant (if I do say so myself) idea to have some of my Twitter friends particpate by asking question of Norma as well!

A big thank you and shout out to them all - add them to your follows if you aren't following them already peeps!

And in honor of the interview I listed a couple of new Norma Kamali pieces onto Shrimpton Couture including this 1980s jumpsuit that I could not resist adding since it is a close sister to the one Rachel Zoe recently wore for a Decades event!

How Sweet is Emmy Rossum?

We posted on how much we LOVED Emmy Rossum in her vintage Ungaro dress and we tweeted her to let her know that and to tell her how peeved we where that anyone had the audacity to bash her when she look so fabulous. She just replied back saying

emmyrossum@ShrimptonCoutur Thank you! I dug it! Not everyone will "get" it or agree with our choices, but as long as we love 'em, who cares! :)

She loves vintage & stands her ground!
Now we are bigger fans then ever!
