Satin Bridal and Lingerie Catalogs from 80s-90s - Anyone want them?

[AlanaRaso]

Hi,
I am downsizing and getting ready to move. My satin image collection (pre-internet) is not going to be moving with me. I have some bridal catalogs (PC Marys, Jessica McClintock) and early 80s Victoria's Secrets catalogs. So if anyone (in the US, sorry got to keep the postage down) wants them, I will mail them to you. PM me with your address - first come gets them. I also have loose bridal magazine pages I can include if you want them. If not, they go into the recycling bin on Thursday.

I am taking digital photos of the pages and will post a link to the image folder when I'm done.
US satin lovers, PM me if you want them.

A lovely collection of bridal catalogues. It's a shame I don't live in the U.S.!
Anyway, thanks for the links to your photo collections on pinterest. I was particularly taken by your "satin in art" and mascherata groups, gorgeously extravagant and glamorous, just the way I like my satin!

Glad you are enjoying this lifelong passion of mine. I have a few hundred images to process from my old physical collection of bridal satin when the gowns were all satin, had huge puff shoulders, extravagant veils and long, long trains. This last decade of bridal gowns has been uninspiring to me. Save a few charmeuse bias sheaths, the "romance" of satin bridal gowns is a thing of the past.
