Fine Fashion Memorabilia Collectibles

Are you a dedicated fashion follower? Would you like to go shopping but are tired of those aching feet? Take a seat, relax those aching feet, and take a look at our unique fashion collectibles. The Latest Thing is a collection of miniature mannequins, showing all the trends, styles, and fashions throughout history and the present day. They're eminently collectible with sensational style and together make a unique collection of 20th Century fashion history. Exquisitely detailed, the fashion pieces are completed in a variety of finishes to create the atmosphere of the period.In the centuries early years emphasis was on the 's' shaped figures and tiny waists, however as the first World War approached and women went to work, clothes became looser. The '20s bought the Jazz age and the '30s saw the great day of haute couture. In the '50s came fabulous fabrics and felinity, followed by the look of Carnaby Street that seemed to become the center of the universe. As the Millennium grew closer, women 'did their own thing' and no longer dressed to impress the opposite sex-rather they dressed to impress themselves. The sense of history in the "Latest Thing" collection is very important in reminding us of earlier trend-setting times which we currently cherish today. The 1920's and the 1930's for example, were time periods where a lot of styles that are worn today originated from. Whichever fashion period you are interested, we have a collectible you and your family will enjoy generation after generation.
