My first love affair begun with Victor Costa in Fall 2008. I found this great flea market in Manhattan in Chelsea Fall 2008. I was trying my best to not purchase anymore clothes for a while because my closet is overflowing then I came across this street vendor with a rack of sick vintage. The entire rack consists of amazing vintage belts, skirts, dresses, and overcoats and was in the most amazing condition by far. Then I peeked over and saw a darling Victor Costa dress and skirts and then at last I found my soul mate.
Victor Costa is like a best friend, you were waiting your entire life to meet but its a piece of clothing. Who knew that a dress can provide all you needed to make your day go perfectly. Its body is made of 75% Dacron polyester 25% cotton and finished off by being made in the USA. Pretty much like most legit vintage products because there was a time when everything was produced in the USA by a skilled tailor in town. And now I am, introducing my best friend, Victor Costa.
