DROP DEAD GORGEOUS DECO DRESSING



I've long been a fan of Isadora's in Seattle. Known primarily for their vintage jewelry, they also offer some stunning reproductions of deco era gowns in the finest most delectable fabrics you can imagine. The bling goes from antique platinum and diamond filigree engagement rings to Victorian garnet jewelry, and, of course magnificent estate diamonds. You’ll also find couture Christian Dior, charming 1920’s cloche hats, and decorative objects for the home. Take a look . . .
