Reduce, Re-Use, Recycle...Hairy Mary's Original

Sometimes things need a second chance. Sometimes you come across an item that has something great going for it, like the fabric but then might have something working against it...like the cut/shape. And how many of use have that sewing/mending/repair/alter pile that's a mile high? Somethings just need to be left to the pro's...and that's were "Hairy Mary's Original" steps in. We can thank designer and painter Sharon Broit for saving us from our "sewing" piles and re-working and and creating fabulous frocks from vintage fabrics and recycling vintage fashions into wearable and up-dated cuteness! Sharon is the proprietress of Hairy Mary's, a vintage clothing shop that not only carries vintage clothing (of course) but also her line "Hairy Mary's Original". Famous for her "boob tube" dress, Sharon has introduced many new styles to the line and although slinky polyester is her favorite fabric to work with but she has recently introduced items in cotton blend fabrics too!!
