    ive just been on ebay..im bidding on a tye dye purple fairy dress. it really pretty and im winning...so far. where abouts in the uk are you? coz in edinburgh they hav this shop in the grassmarket called armstrong's emporium and they hav loads of really cool stuff left over from the 50's, 60's and 70's as well as old fancy dress costumes handed down from the theatre...its really worth a look! its not as expensive as your other vintage treasure troves either!

    ive been there....my friend goes to india and buys shitloads of stuff and sells it on...and most of it ive seen being sold in that store or stuff very similar anyway ...its like a secret treasure cavern! there actually a gd little vintage store in aberdeen called the closet..it is literally a hole in the wall..but it is AMAZING!!!!

    you should maybe try asking around...try the yellow pages under fancy dress or call directory inquiries....happy hunting!
