Janet Schwartz, owner of Woodland Farms Vintage displays her hats during the Vintage Fashion Expo at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium on Saturday, October 20, 2012. The show features 85 dealers of vintage clothing, accessories and textiles and every style imaginable, from belle epoque finery to bell bottom jeans. Timeless American designs by Bill Blass, Bonnie Cashin, Halston & Claire McCardell are available from a wide range period (1850-1980). The styles are as diverse as the repressed Victorian era, the Roaring Twenties, the humorous platform-shoe/hip-hugging era of the 1970s and the more recent Retro Styles.
