Vintage Fashion? Frock me!

VINTAGE fashion fair at Chelsea Old Town Hall? FROCK me! Actually, it was one hell of a fair. The creations were pretty appetising and entrance tickets were unsurprisingy, Made in Chelsea. Fuchun, aka the sidewalk playboy, was delighted to discover the fair was not just about Frocks. About 0.5% of the displays were menswear.



FUCHUN

Hurrah! I will DEFINITELY find something from the Great Gatsby ear, sorry, ERA. Frock me!


袁艾菲

Good luck, Fuchun. I look forward to style you in Great Gatsby inspired clothes.....And don't forget, you need an outfit to wear to the forthcoming London Collections: Men



VITAMIN B
(cynically)

Fuchun, If you find ANYTHING, I'll photograph even the moment you hand over the money to its seller.


FUCHUN

Frock you.

FUCHUN

So what's your impression of the vintage fair so far


Vindu Dara
(gushed)

Frock me. It's the best one. I adore the quality quality craftsmanships, designs and materials. I'm VERY keen.


FUCHUN

Have you found any gems?



Vindu Dara

Not yet. I'm looking for clothes that are keepable....


FUCHUN

....investment pieces...


Vindu Dara

Correct! When I stop wearing them, I'd like to bequeath them to the loved ones...in my will

......................................................................




MARRONE

I love vintage jewellery...


FUCHUN

Well, it seem you came to the right place. There are some beautiful jewellery on this stall 


MARRONE

All that glitter are not always FROCKING gold..


FUCHUN

You lost me, what do you mean?


MARRONE

 I'll have to carefully examine the jewellery to see if they were made from metals or stones, gemstones or crystals


FUCHUN
(sighs)

Now, no one will be able to find me


MARRONE
(sighs impatiently)

Frock sake! SIMPLY, I'm interested in the real thing. For example, jewellery made of REAL gold instead of cheap metals that tarnishes soon after purchase..


FUCHUN
(conspiratorially)

Well, I suggest you move on from this stall QUICKLY


MARRONE

Really?


FUCHUN
(laughed)

Just FROCKING about. Stay. These jewellery look like gems


MARRONE

You REALY think so?


FUCHUN

I REALLY see some pieces that can add value, sinificance, stories and chicness to your outfit. They look so timeless, you'll treasure them for years to come..


MARRONE

Wow!






[FINALLY, Fuchun spotted a vintage Marc Jacobs biker jacket.]


FUCHUN

My Gosh! a belted camaflouge, military jacket. It's super bad-ass


VITAMIN B

Looks like a woman's jacket


 袁艾菲

Shut up B! I'm the ONLY stylist here, the only WOMAN here, and I say it's a blooming man's jacket.


FUCHUN

Get your camera ready Mr. I'm gonna buy it


袁艾菲

 Buttoned all the way to the top, it will look good if teamed with dark jeans and black boots 


FUCHUN

Frock me! It's a FLIPPING size MEDIUM....I'll have to lose some weight. FROCK!


VITAMIN B

It seem I was right. Frocking hell!

Dambusters' Raid style

TO COMMEMORATE the 70th anniversary of the Dambusters' Raid, the Royal Air Force museum held an Adults Only, One Night Only, Late Night display of static World War artefacts. Bradley, aka, the sidewalk playboy, had no inkling what the Dambusters' Raid was, but welcomed the invitation nontheless. It encouraged dressing up in Second World War inspired outfits, or try on those on display.

SALUTE to all the BRAVE soldiers who fought during that dreadful period, especially, those from the caribbean, New Zealand, Africa, Canada, Australia, U.S.A, and all the other allied countries - especially those who paid their own fares to come to England to join the Royal Air Force.  SALUTE. BLESS you and your families



[Dambusters' Raid - a squadron of Allied Force join the Royal Air Force to carry out a deadly bombing campaign in Nazi Journey, sorry, GERMANY. A vast number of them did not make it back to base]

Real BOMBER  jacket and beret from the museums World War 2 collection.


THe sidewalk playboy is normally over the moon when doing photo-shoots in bad-ass clothes. However, on this occasion, after viewing cluster bombs and reading the poignant stories of many of the pilots who died during the daring mission, his mood metamorphose into solemnity and Subduableness.

Sidewalk aesthetic

While crafting delectable raw foods lunches at RAW TASTES stall, sidewalk playboy, Wayne, managed a good deal of style-spotting among the sidewalk diaspora. Everyday, he thank God for the chance to see such sexy, beautiful fashion - something to dream about everynight.

Farrah's style is totally loveable. She donned an attractive and likeable suit. Both the pleated blouse and matching skirt, are from Joseph. A hot match. Damn, it was fine as wine A smitten passer-by, with a massive crush, cried unashamedly. What a mess. The sidewalk pressure will be on Farrah to continue wearing perfect, flatteringly cool outfits from now on.

Horizontal stripes are so on trend. Sidewalk playboy was busy making salad dressings, yet Selena's incarnation of the look, caught his eyes as she strolled by. It was a sleeveless, monochrome number by Malene Birger. It looked really good! Think icecream. So perfect for spring and summer; sheer fun and playfullness.

Incidentally, the sidewalk playboy crafted raw foods in a dapper, Burgundy suit and grey shirt from TOPMAN. So good-looking. His adoration for it was annoyingly obvious, and understandable. It was, oh my God,  utter perfection. Very few raw foods lovers and passers-by failed to notice it, admirably. He had fun showing off that hard-ass, suit and tie sidewalk aesthetic.
