VPOD: Vintage 1980s Ungaro Rabbit Fur and Leather Coat

When you’ve been in the vintage clothing business as long as I have, it’s inevitable that you will see the same vintage clothing item show up more than once. And it’s always surprising when it does. I often think, “Amazing! I used to own that dress,” or “I remember seeing that dress a few years back in a vintage shop.”

Now certainly the chances of you donning a vintage ready-to-wear item and seeing someone wearing the same piece as you is infinitesimally low. In fact, it will probably never happen during your lifetime!  But it is possible.

Of course, you won’t have that concern with today’s VPOD. This is truly a one-of-a-kind piece that was produced for the Ungaro runway in the 1980s and then was too expensive to put into production.

Created from white rabbit fur and hand-painted leather in an abstract print, this amazing vintage coat features wide lapels that sparkle with iridescent beads and paillettes and a matching belt that extends the theme with fur on one side and leather on the other.

It’s a magnificent find for a vintage fashionista!

Available at Frock NYC.

VPOD: Vintage 1970s Ungaro Silk Blouse

vintage ungaro stars and hearts blouse print

Today marks two and a half decades since the catastrophic explosion aboard the Challenger space shuttle and, for many of us, it’s one of those moments that imprinted itself so strongly on our memories that we will always remember exactly where we were and what we were doing when we witnessed the disaster or heard the horrific news.

Yesterday, Steven J. McAuliffe, widower of Christa McAuliffe, the teacher who was killed onboard Challenger that day, reminded us of what he thought Christa would say is the Challenger’s most precious lesson:

that “ordinary people can make extraordinary contributions when they remain true to themselves and enthusiastically pursue their own dreams wherever they may lead.”

Let’s keep the families of all of our nation’s brave astronauts in our thoughts today. And remember to reach for your own stars, too.

If you need a little help, turn to today’s VPOD. This vintage 1970s silk blouse by Ungaro pairs hearts and stars for an inspiring chic print.

It’s a star-gazing find for a vintage fashionista!

Available at Vintage Couture.

VPOD: Vintage 1980s U is for Ungaro Skirt



Trina Turk launched her colorful fashion brand in 1995 and says there are no bad colors, just bad color combinations. And while so many women despair that they just don’t know how to put colors together, I believe you instinctively know what colors look good on you and which colors flatter you most. It’s all about trusting yourself more and worrying less.

Of course, you can always rely on the experts to help you out. Ease your suffering by choosing prints that pop by designers who know their way around color. For instance, today’s VPOD features an ultra-colorful and ultra-fabulous 1980s vintage silk skirt by Ungaro. With its high waist, side pockets, four buttons and wicked print, simply add a tee or blouse in black or white and you’ll be set to go.
