Victory Rolls, Betty Bangs and Bandanas Oh My!!

Over this past weekend, The Memphettes had the privilege of participating in their second fashion show with Southern Junkers Vintage Market.   Our job, as requested by market organizers, was to provide entertainment and color to an already spectacular event. To say this event was full on fun and campy goodness would be an understatement! 

If you came to the event looking looking for the traditional fashion show environment, then this might not have been the show for you and I will go ahead and apologize for what we put you through.  

We freely admit that the words "fashion show" mean something altogether different to us. No lampshade head covers or dresses that look like someone was wrapped in a labradoodle were anywhere to be found. Our shows are not meant to be taken too seriously but are created to be both entertaining, informative, and bring attention to our group mission, which is encouraging women of all shapes, sizes, ages, and backgrounds to find their inner bombshell.

      

This time around we took a stab at rockabilly fashion and western attire.  With D’elle Memphis and Comanche Rose leading the chaos we exhibited twenty different looks and discussed rockabilly music, fashion trends, accessories, hairstyles and makeup.  (sorry not all outfits were captured on film L) Evidently we own all the hair flowers, stiletto heels & red lipstick in the Mid-South!! 

Special thanks to Kitty Collins & Here Kitty Kitty Vintage and Atomic Boomerang for providing A LOT of the clothing you see here!!   Also, a super special thanks to Ruth Barnes Of Southern Junkers Vintage Market for taking a chance and allowing us to bring the chaos out into public. 

Check out The Memphettes we are on the inter-webs and have our very own facy-space account.  If it looks like something you’d like to be involved in message us!  We don’t bite…usually!
