Spring 2008 (including vintage) plus Resort and Holiday!

Wrap released since Autumn 2007!

Yes yes yes yes yes. It has been too long since I have made a new entry on this blog! While I have been updating my past entries, I have not added new entries because, well, simply because Diane has released TOO MANY new items for me to keep up! And now that she has expanded to even more cities and shops, most of you can probably find out this info for yourselves. But after numerous requests from DvF fans to update this blog, I have decided that I will chronicle some of the wraps that DvF has released since I last blogged (October 2007) and have a special section to of course note the new Vintage Collection re-released prints for Spring 2008! Please note that I have found DvFs to be getting larger in sizing, so I have been able to size down a full size in pretty much every wrap I've tried on from the 2008 collections so far.

If you see something you like, please contact me to discuss sizing and/or to work out details such as shipping preference, total price and payment options (email: FashionForwardStore@hotmail.com). All items available for pick-up in NYC. Shipping cost is additional and I prefer USPS Priority with Delivery Confirmation for US addresses and Global Express for International addresses.Cash, PayPal, Western Union, USD money orders and USD bank drafts accepted. Credit/debit PayPal payments have an additional 5% surcharge added to cover the fees that PayPal assesses, so if you can pay by non-credit/non-debit card PayPal, you can avoid having to pay that additional 5% surcharge.
