A few days back I posted about Villa Moda's event "So Passé" which was basically an exhibition of vintage evening wear from the 60's up to the early 80's. At first I thought it was an interesting event. But I honestly didn't think that it was THAT amazing until I checked it out myself. I was completely blown away by the beauty of some of the pieces (and their very reasonable prices!). Price range was around KD 170 to KD 600. But wait, that's not all. Scroll down to the last picture to find out my biggest surprise.
They had THE famous Princess Diana “revenge dress” that she worn in 1993 straight after her spilt from Prince Charles (of course it was sold immediately! That's what happens to me when I procrastinate). The exhibition is on for a few more days, so if you have the time, pass by, it's worth it. OK, now you can scroll back up to admire some of my favorite "So Passé" gowns (The pink strapless gown with a side huge bow is just tdf!).

The dresses at Villa Moda are never worn before vintage dresses. The original tags are available at the store if you need them.
The exhibition is still ongoing at the Manolo Blahnik space should any of you wish to visit.
Enjoy shopping or looking!
my heart is racing and it doesn't happen very often.
