WED 06 | Just in time for the heat wave, The History of Things to Come is back to provide us all with functional and – equally elusive – fashionable frocks to see us through to the slightly less sweltering season. For those unacquainted with the fair, this is a rare opportunity to nab quality vintage clothing, including imported ‘40s daywear, ‘50s and ‘60s cocktail dresses, ‘70s hippie getup, ‘80s dynasty evening wear and jumpsuits so cute you’ll want to buy one just to bounce around the house in. Despite the fact that all items are older than 20 years (finally, some genuine vintage!), they’ve all been handpicked for their impeccable condition, not to mention their timeless cut and light, airy material. So, if thick nylon day-glo gowns aren’t your style, we suggest you get along with empty bags in tow for your opportunity to pick up some threads to last you through more than just the sticky season. You have until 8pm Sunday 10 to stock up. But, of course, as with any specialised clothing fair, you’re going to want to get in early to nab the best of the bunch. On your marks, ladies…
