My grandmothers' 1923 bridal portrait
This site is a re-launch of my original 1997 website 'A Vintage Wedding', which was a dedication to my grandmother (photo right), who instilled an intense interest in, and love for, vintage clothing, particularly antique & vintage wedding and evening gowns!
My original websites were very popular back in the day, and I was quoted in a variety of popular NYC & LA style/fashion magazines and books. I was even asked to participate in various mainstream television programs as an 'authority' on vintage fashion. Perhaps the greatest honour was when MasterCard launched its first website back in the early 2000's, Priceless.com, and not only interviewed me for one of their very first online articles but published my thoughts regarding the timeless appeal & popularity of classic vintage little black dresses (which was my 2nd original website, 'That Perfect Little Black Dress.com').
Taking care of, maintaining, and looking after, vintage clothing is so important to me. Being able to pass them along to others who can use/wear them is so gratifying. Truly. It's part of who I am, a lover of all old things. I even live in a circa 1899 Victorian home, so clearly, I appreciate all things 'old'.

If you have a vintage wedding/evening gown that is in very good condition and you simply do not want it, don't need it, or you have no idea what to do with it, I will GLADLY accept it and give it a second chance to be worn! The only caveat is that the gown/dress cannot be torn, shattered, or beyond salvage, please. Minimal to moderate staining is ok, as I will happily handwash it (depending upon the type of stain and the items' fabric content) in order to (hopefully) refresh the item and give it a second life! Think GREEN! Vintage items that are in good condition should be passed-on and I'm more than happy to be the conduit for exactly that.
Do note, however, that donated gowns cannot be returned. If you choose to donate a gown, you are giving it to me/AVWToo so that it can have another chance to be loved and worn by a bride-to-be or Mom/Maid, so please only send serviceable items that can be refreshed and then passed along. Thank you.
Always feel free to contact me with any questions or for my donation shipping address.
