Love Vintage

Overview

Following successful shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra, Love Vintage is finally coming to Brisbane for its inaugural clothing show at the Brisbane Convention Centre. The event runs from Friday evening to Sunday, featuring quality vintage fashion and original couture from beaded flapper dresses and ‘30s glamour to revolutionary swinging ‘60s minis and ‘80s retro.

Vintage and antique dealers from across Australia will be selling clothing for men and women, fine and costume jewellery dating from 1900, as well as sewing patterns to recreate your own vintage-inspired looks at home. There will also be inspirational demonstrations and ‘how to’ masterclasses.

On Saturday, Australia’s premier vintage stylist Candice DeVille will be running a 3-hour workshop on mastering your own vintage style. And on Sunday, stage demonstrations and masterclasses include vintage make-up and hair styles, how to create your own vintage weddings and putting the elegance back into 21st century glamour. Tickets need to be bought in advance for masterclasses, which range from $80-$86 including goodie bags and a glass of bubbly on arrival.
