Antiquity: Street Fashion















































Images by Shraddha Borawake

Dress: Self made; Bloomers: Thrifted; Boots: Jenesse Antique Mall; Ring: Gary Durow Antique; Glasses: Value Village in Canada; Bag: Bomdoca, Brazil


Cantebury Jones is a writer / designer / a lot of other things I don’t remember. But to me she will always be the one person who I spotted in modern day that wore bloomers underneath her dress as under garment. I love it!! Mind you we spotted her almost 3-4 months ago and I just haven’t had a chance to post her pictures. So this is even before bloomers became available at American Apparel. And in total love with that watch. Love her spunk and enthusiasm.
