"Circus"




Remember Mode O' Day shops?  As a young teen in the ‘60’s, I certainly do. 

While helping to clear out the  attic of an old Island home, I discovered a cache of vintage women’s clothing.  Sifting through the archeological find, I uncovered a fabulous Mode O' Day frock…truly a stunner.  Thankfully, my professional dry cleaner was able to remove decades of dust and moth balls, bringing it back to its original sheen.  I delivered the freshly sanitized, once-in-a-lifetime-dream-come-true to Dana, who with artful precision, gave it new life as a JoeysCoat gem…
