NEW "Blue-eyed Coquette" accessories available at General 54 (54 St.Viateur)




I've been selling with General 54 for the past 8 years so it's been a long sweet relationship.
Originally I sold my Fairyesque collection (women's wear designs) there and now in the past couple of years I have transformed my creation (need to create) to Romantically feminine :Hair accessories & Pins. Which you can now find upon a shelf or a glass case in their newly designed space.
Wonder through Mile End and more importantly St. Viateur (54 to be exact) and discover talented local Fashion Designers and hand selected vintage. Discover more through the General 54 Blog
