Vixen Designer GIVEAWAY!!!











The idea of wearing old clothing as new style developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s. By the end of World War II in 1945, clothing factories had learned to mass-produce clothes the same way they are mass-produced now. As more and more types of garments could only be bought off-the-rack, looking just the same as everyone else's wardrobe, people with a creative fashion sense got bored. They wanted unique clothing that didn't have to be expensively custom-made.  Thanks to the fashion revolution in the 1960s, clothing became much more varied, and styles from different eras were more widely accepted. People embraced this by scouring thrift shops and yard sales, and vintage clothing stores began opening in the 1970s.  One of my newest and favorite finds in the vintage department is Vixen Designer.


vix·en – noun: A female fox. 
de·sign·er – noun: A schemer, intriguer, or plotter.
