| I’d like to welcome Karen who owns and operates Vintage Virtuosa offering fine vintage clothing, jewelry and accessories for the discriminating shopper. I love Karen’s definition of what vintage means….
If I were to define vintage it would be a sip of fine wine from my grandmother’s goblet, the lingering scent of tobacco from my grandfather’s pipe, a favorite family recipe, an old re-run of `I Love Lucy’. If I were to define vintage clothing it would be a dress that dictates trend from a designer or dressmaker who captured a stylistic moment, it would be a signature piece from a retired designer or a unique item that depicts the socioeconomic climate of its era. Vintage can, but does not have to bear a label, it is of a time when getting dressed was an art form and clothes were constructed, not just made, it is a time when we celebrated our bodies and revealed ourselves from the outside in, when women were demure, yet sexy, temperate, yet sensual, coy, yet poised. It is also fun, exciting, playful and outlandish. Vintage is what you make of it and what it makes of you. So come and discover the world of yesterday and see that while it is not brand new it is not yesterday’s news. I enjoy going out on private appointments and getting to know the women this way and gain some insight as to who they were as individuals in the world and how they celebrated themselves through their personal image and sense of style. Every item we sell has a history and a story and we feel privileged to be in the business of passing along a little bit of someone’s personal history along with their coveted treasures. On the green side of things, we recycle shipping paper, ribbons,coach purse, boxes, you name it, all in the theme of reuse and repurpose. To wear vintage is to reuse and repurpose so we adopt this philosophy in all aspects of running the business. We appreciate Karen’s eco friendly approach to operating her business.
