Pretty Vintage Collars

I am sharing two of my favorite vintage collars for White Wednesday.   I have them displayed in Caroline’s/guest room.

 

I love the way the bottom edge flounces.

 

And look how very fine the lace along the bottom edge is.

 

This French girl is wearing an off white crocheted collar.

 

A favorite vintage brooch adds a sparkly touch.

There is so much gorgeous white to see at Faded Charm.

  2. Your collars are "GORGEOUS"... I have collected them for years and your two are "Wonderful"! I have a few displayed here and there in past posts but I LOVE that you dedicated a whole post just to them. "Aren't they the most incredible works of art"? "I do LOVE them and thank you for sharing yours with us".
    Hugs to you,
    Donna

  15. I vividly remember all the fancy collars we would put on with holiday dresses when we were little. These remind me of them so much. How did you take that first picture and now show up in the mirror?! Either I need to sneak in and watch the contortionist show next time or I am living with a ghost! ;-) Love you Muddy
