Hey lady, your right boob is not fitted best in that dress. Hey lady, your shapeliness is getting lost in that ill-fitting pencil skirt. Time to pull up your saggy stockings and get your lady frame fitted correctly by the lady of all ladies – Karlee Slater.
Karlee has just opened Golden Age: Vintage Made To Measure, where you can get alterations done, women’s clothing made to measure or pick something from her well-edited selection of vintage deadstock dating back to the ’20s (no-one died in them, they have never even been worn!).
What is also exciting is Karlee’s craft of replicating existing vintage items, such as these. Yep, Karlee is so crafty you can pretty much ask for anything. But note: her specialty lies in 1930s to late 1950s dresses, coats and suits, so slappers beware – these are real lady clothes.
