Happy Thanksgiving Pussycats!

Happy Thanksgiving Pussycats!
Hope everyone is enjoying their long weekend.

It has a been quite a while since public school for me and all of the historical
teachings of thanksgiving.
So, I went to Wikipedia and refreshed myself...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thanksgiving

Interestingly.....

History of Thanksgiving in Canada

The history of Thanksgiving in Canada goes back to an English explorer, Martin Frobisher, who had been futilely attempting to find a northern passage to the Orient. He did, however, establish a settlement in Canada. In the year 1578, Frobisher held a formal ceremony in what is now the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, to give thanks for surviving the long journey. This event is widely considered to be the first Canadian Thanksgiving, and the first official Thanksgiving to occur in North America.


More importantly what did the gals wear that day????
If you were a regular gal like you and me it would be something like this.

The Fruit Seller

c. 1580

Hmmm, doesn't look as uncomfortable and restrictive as
I had thought it might be.
No worse then ultra low-rise jeans and a thong in January!
Enjoy the last of weekend pussycats!

Vintage Russian Fashion

Vintage Russian Fashion

Hiddy Ho Pussycats!
Ok, you all know that I am completely into vintage fashion.
I can't get enough of it.
I found these photos of vintage Russian fashion
and had to share!

What a find!



"Op with a dash of trad - the folksy element comes through clearly, Nelli Arshavskaya having been influenced here by the old Russian wooden folk toys. She rather fancies these two ensembles for après-ski, but does not insist that this is the only occasion on which they can be worn"



I don't know which I love more here..the hat
the green gloves OR the guy in the background.



"Two outfits for day wear from the Soviet Union, with a strong dash of sporting flavour" (from "Sputnik", March 1968)

Once again, do I prefer the capes or the young man in the groovy shades?

"A cape is the thing when autumn days begin to get a little colder. We are likely to see many of them in Moscow before long." (From 'Sputnik', October 1968)

And lastly for today....

This one is my favourite of the 4.
I really like these suits.


From the spring and summer collection at the USSR Fashion House, as exhibited at Expo-67 in Montreal. Designed by Vyacheslav Zaitsev of the USSR Fashion House in "a blindingly pure fiery orange, an angry red, and a green that is full of the promise of life and eternal renewal."
Finding these set the perfect tone for my Saturday.

I am inspired to find more vintage Russian clothing.
I love the web for this...now if only I
could add more hours to my day.

Have a great weekend Pussycats!
and as they say in Russia..
До скорой встречи. !
