Doris Vintage Arrival Haul: New Pieces from Marilyn Monroe’s Favorite Store and Designer Reveals

[@ericghobril4688]

Hi Doris, would you ever consider a video showing us your clothing storage techniques? And maybe some tips on what fabrics/papers to put between? That would be so cool!!

[@dipeshagrawal4675]

This really is my ticket to seeing what I fear I will never experience

[@intermodus2180]

Dont say that!

Is green, have florals,named Missoni!!! oooh yeeeeess!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@krisrose6424]

I NEED those BOOTS! OMG! I just happen to be a size 8 1/2 too and I'm obsessed with 70's glam rock, I can see any member of The Runaways wearing these boots onstage. I know they are probably way out of my price range, but one can dream. Thank you so much for making my day. I dream about boots just like this, it's nice to know they exist in the real world too.

[@mckenziejoie2242]

Love, love this channel. My son is an employee at Paramount and I tell him to please tell his bosses to bring back your show!!! You are adorable, delightful and really FUNNY as are your employees . What I loved most was you never knew who would wander in and they were all esteemed in their field or just fun shoppers. Doris, I love your eye And encyclopedic knowledge of fashion. I love how you teach me to put things together in new ways that I already own , say a different colored bra that shows. Loved The Amy Weinstein, jewelry and Google Arts museum, of shows seen thus far. So great!!!! You’re a hoot! XOXO

[@stephanieray6587]

You're like a college professor, Doris! I love hearing your lectures, your silvery laughter (prettiest anywhere!), and extensive vocabulary... thank you so much for bringing haute couture to us groundlings.

[@quinnbixler2789]

Those boots are EVERYTHING. Gorgeous. They remind me of Jem and the Holograms!

[@headron66]

The boots!!! They scream Bowie to me. Beautiful ❤️

[@sobeit19]

The lavender and red tunic and pants, I had a lavender set which was sleeveless but with tighter knit so no skin showed. I wore it to a homecoming dance my freshman year in high school. Back in 1972

[@clairekalemkeris4606]

I love this channel , so happy to see the Dino bell bottom bikini set, the print haunts me. I went back looking for the video with one of your wonderful helpers when you were under the weather and couldnt find it ao happy to see this again !!! Love the jax dresses, the maud frizon boots , the color block purse, the beautiful smocked print mini dress with lace inserts. I am thinking why these shapes and optimism of the sixties is so appealling, essentially this was my first view of adults as a little girl and your examples feel very fresh and contemporary. Always beautiful ,delightful and an opportunity to learn. Thank you Doris! Its worth seeing your videos more than once treasure trove of ideas.

[@thewaywewore7371]

Thanks for your kind words. Doris

My sister was the house model for Mr Dino in Miami where the screen print manufacturing took place.

[@ruthtomalin7769]

Doris. I jut love listening to your experienced knowledgeable critique of the items you present. Your paced considered delivery is so refreshing and most welcome. I could listen to you all day. I have spent a happy relaxing half hour with you and a cup of tea before starting my day. Thank you from rural Essex, in England.

[@thewaywewore7371]

Hi Ruth! Thanks for your kind comment. I can visualize your “routine” from your description and that makes me happy!! Thanks for your interest. Doris

[@LightworkBeacon]

Just catching this episode now and wanted to say that I so appreciate your knowledge. It is apparent that you are immersed in your passion. I find I pick up titbits of information even in the natural moments when you are simply discussing the fabrics, texture, and appliqué etc. Very informative and inspiring!

[@conchitalopez9269]

The Missoni dress from the 70's, so relevant back then as it is today. Wish you all the best. Stay safe

[@headlessviolin]

I do he you keep going so lovely to see these beautiful clothes I loved the colour block handbag your never too fat for a handbag xxx

[@JaffaCakeGecko]

For the contest - that Missoni is truly to die for, or if you still have some of those vintage Pucci dresses you showed in a video a while back, I would gladly take one off your hands!

[@anastaziak6621]

Im Seriously having a meltdown! I want those Amazing Boots & how clever you can fold them over to give more red to the shoe! (That boot reminds me of wonder women) Then those sexy black and gold shoes which i think its got a planet on them! and I loooove the pink outfit!!! I'll ABSOULTELY be shopping here even though I live in Sydney Australia NOTHING will stop me!!!

[@CherieMonique5]

I used to live at 6th and burnside and would go out of my way to walk past your store to check out the window. I don’t know why it took me so long to realize that you have a channel but I’m here now and so glad to see the treasures you have.

[@jayneneewing2369]

Doris, love the jacket you’re wearing. Holy moly, tough to pick a favorite. But, OMG, when you showed the lilac tunic & pants set it took me right back to when I lived in the dorms at university. 1968. And my suite mate had a dress exactly like that woven material. She wore an absolutely plain slip under it with a different color. Boy, was she cool in that outfit, which she wore on a date. What a hoot for me to see that woven material which I remember so vividly. Thanks again, kiddo.

[@pamjordan1793]

I am a "curvy" lady or as the writer Alexander McCall Smith would say a "traditionally built woman", but I love your pieces! I would like to see some clothing for my size. I'm sure they few and far between. Thank you for your you tube show!

[@heidisider577]

I don't ever comment, but this time is an exception! Just wishing you well in hope that your amazing business will survive during these difficult times. I am an old fashion major whose love of vintage has finally rubbed off on my 22 year old daughter. Your videos are my lifeline to my former world... Thank you & be safe!

[@Dignitatis]

Thanks so much Doris! All the clothes from Jax were fabulous, I wish I was a small size! God bless you!

[@wrappedinvelvet7798]

That bias cut dress is incredible. Both interesting and timeless.

[@djkiti7007]

that 30's black bias cut dress is divine!!!!

[@jessiejoseph1093]

You make your fans so happy! Thank you! Always so fun and informative. I bet if you started politely mentioning the size and cost of items you feature your sales would go up.

You are such an inspiration…your knowledge & tenacity for your love of fashions & sharing it with us…& so much more❣️ I am hoping you can possibly do a segment on wonderful iconoclast Iris Apfel who’s great contribution to the fabric world & style has opened SO many eyes and hearts. Only you could do it in your “unpushy sales presentations” that share such great info🥰 AND, since I am an old Granny of 18 lil’ darlings, and a Size 3X, do you have anything for us larger ladies…please? God bless & keep you going strong, Doris, you are such a pleasure❣️

[@eliagreer7612]

Another fantastic video, as usual. As a big fan of The Way We Wore, one of my dreams is to one day be inside the store to look around and adore all these vintage pieces. When I looked around the online shop for the contest, there were two things that really really caught my eye. One was the fringed distressed oversized jacket from the 80s and the second one, also from the 80s, is the Genny Evening Jacket with the Green Trim. It reminds me of a Valentino Blazer that I tried on many years ago, but never bought, which I regret to this day. For who ever this gift card goes to, I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart and I hope the wonderful piece you get, will bring you lots of joy for many many years :)

[@Baduntssss]

This was so cool! Makes me want to go thrifting. Really makes me excited to create my own curated decade inspired collection. I'm really into the 60s -70s color era.

[@dazzlingchick]

💋Doris, It’s always so fun and interesting watching your videos. That black lucite w/carved top and the black 1920’s with gold little details are my favorite. For my Entry I would pick those. Thank You. Continued Blessings and Support.~Love&Light💖Carli

[@lichenliving]

So great to hear the history of Jax! I have occasionally come across these pieces over the years and always been impressed by the design and quality

[@ringoroll]

Love love love Jax!

[@Kat-gj9li]

Awhh dorris's little laught when she said: great color with the blue dress. As a fellow blue lover i understand💙

[@sarahdee374]

I could see Marilyn, and her beautiful cleavage, in that one!

[@denisadellinger4543]

Absolutely beautiful things! I'm a first time viewer. The art of designer couture is so unique. It is frustrating that you are not able to be open but at least you are able to have viewers from across the country. Everything you have is very unique.

[@sobeit19]

Funny! When you pulled that dress off the rack my first thought was Ana Mae Wong. And then you said she would have worn it She was so lovely! I wish Hollywood hadn’t been so racist toward Asians and blacks. We missed out on some really great actors and actresses

[@jenniferw1570]

The 30's bias cut dress is beautiful, as is everything. Thank you for the information. It's a challenge pricing vintage, and getting hard to find. You certainly have access to the cream of what is left of the crop

[@karenkaler187]

I wish, I wish, I wish!! I love the basket purse, my Neen had one, as a little girl if we were allowed to play in her closet that was one of the first things I would go for. I also loved the red tunic and pants, my mother would have worn that well. Like I said I wish Miss Roberts.

[@barbarapatrick2687]

The first purple crushed velvet looking mini with long tapered sleeves reminded me of Janis Joplin. I love your fashions and their historical backgrounds.

[@saraballentine2413]

So many beautiful things to choose from! The Gigli cotton wrap blouse or the red disco blouse!!!

[@bluepearlgirl-emelie]

You teach more fashion history from these KZbin videos than any class one could take! It is AWESOME!! Comming from a girl from SF and grew up shopping at the esprit outlet and Emporium and Gumps etc. I want to thank you for what you have done and continue to do! I wanted to do fashion design but instead went into makeup but it formed a love in me that never quit. You speak to me and your passion is so evident! Thank you for sharing your amazing knowledge and experiences you have had. You are the queen sharing and educating on the history of modern fashion!

[@marvinraphaelmonfort8289]

your coverup would look so good with the missoni!!

[@thewaywewore7371]

My jacket is a multi-color hand embroidered on lightweight wool from Kashmir India. Probably 970s made for export.

[@marvinraphaelmonfort8289]

the purple and fuchsia snakeskin purse!!! 😍💜 and the purple velvet dress!! and the purple crochet set!

[@marikotrue3488]

Doris Raymond said it truthfully, "...the colors make you happy." A commodity we all need especially now! I enjoy watching hauls and hearing each item's provenance. It is an interesting and informative 23andMe for clothing and accessories.

[@caramckenna3356]

Thanks so much for the video! I always learn so much about vintage from watching you. For the contest - I'm in love with that crushed purple velvet piece and the red knit set showcased here. I also have an unhealthy obsession with the Oscar de la Renta three piece set with the head scarf included! So many cool ways to wear!

[@deborahd3810]

Hello Doris and friends at The Way We Wore❣️ I would like to enter the contest please... if I could choose something from your incredible merchandise, it would be the Vintage 50s Ethnic Beaded Belt... talk about timeless👏🏻👏🏻✨. I could see pairing it with a cute T-shirt dress and espadrilles for spring and summer.. or even wearing it in the winter with a sweater dress and boots. Thank you ever so much for your videos. I love them! Your knowledge and understanding of fashion is second to none. Wish I could walk around your lovely store and “oooh and aaah...” Maybe someday! Blessings and kudos to you all.

[@dalhousieDream]

I so love your presentations and wish you all the best Doris. Retail will pick up soon with the vaccine and good times are coming back by summer. Keep your chin up - and you are helping by entertaining us with your beautiful garments. 🌻🌈

[@thelenaanderson2218]

Hello Doris! I’m such a fan and I can’t get enough! As I don’t hope to fit into most vintage clothing I really love and appreciate seeing accessories. So thanks for that❤️

[@thewaywewore7371]

Thanks for your comment Thelena. In LA, it’s really difficult to find sizes larger than a US 8. When we do, it’s usually the first thing sold because it is so hard to find. I apologize for that but I’m happy to read that you have found a way to integrate vintage into your wardrobe. Accessories are a fantastic way to add color and make a personal statement. Thanks for your interest! Doris

[@thelenaanderson2218]

[@sabinegilson257]

As usual, I can't just choose one! l love the 1930's bias cut dress and then the Jax satin coat dress suits the other end of my design desire spectrum. In addition, the Scott Barrie crepe dress, as well at the crochet tunic sets, and the Missoni classic shape wool jersey floral dress all caught my eye. Finally, we have that little Jean Patou number breaking hearts wherever she goes...hmmmmm :)

Absolutely in love with this channel. Not only as a vintage lover myself but honestly you are SO soothing. I could watch you rummage through things for hours. As for the give-away I would die to own the Missoni 70s Green Pop Art Floral Jersey Maxi Dress. With my ginger hair I think it would pop against like crazy.

[@kitrimmer42]

thank you Doris and Co. for continuing to put out videos amidst all this craziness, with the continued shutdown and the looting of the store last year, it's really admirable to watch you all keep pushing forward in spite of the circumstances and fills me with hope at a time when hope feels like a scarcity. you are (and have been since LA Frockstars) a joy to watch on screen and this channel is an excellent resource for research. do you own any pieces by Nicolas Ghesquiere? either from his tenure at Balenciaga (or the brief and storied three seasons he spent at Callaghan!) or any Claude Montana? would love to see. Writing from London, UK ♡

[@thewaywewore7371]

Hi Kit. Thanks for your kind words. It’s people like you that motivate me to continue doing this. It’s a great and kind community. I need to do a little research to confirm the dates of my Callaghan pieces. Let me see if if we have enough to warrant an episode. Thanks for the suggestion. I really like Nicolas and miss seeing him. It’s been over a year( last October) since he was in the store. I hope you have a chance to visit the store after the COVID19 issue evaporates. One can hope..... Thank you for your interest! Best regards- Doris

[@seviregis7441]

Suggestions...? Ok, here’s one, but you may already be doing it... Have regular fashion shows in the store based on a theme, using music from that time and other aids, like video screens with footage from that era. Have tea ☕️ 🫖 and have a celeb show up for the events, or some other special feature each time that can help to draw customers. You can have other fashion historians and designers too, but you are such a wonderful curator and historian yourself, a pleasure to watch your vids.

[@MsStash47]

Happy New Year Doris and please continue to inspire us with your vision. The old me would love to have something from Holly Harp(the green poly 3-piece), Issey Miyake(the pleated cat suit). The new me would love the Bonnie Boerer sweater(with the sequined LA landmarks) with the 80's "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" earrings, the Maud Frizon boots and the basket bag for luck. That would float my boat having been a vintage fan for over 30 years. Thank-you for explaining about Andrea Pfister as all these years I thought it was a women's name and Ombelline. You rock my world!

[@mcwjes]

I don't know if it would be too much work, but I would like to see if you can recreate iconic costumes from old Hollywood films. It might be a fun challenge to look at your stock and find homage to Funny Face or Casablanca. If anybody could do it, it's you.
