One of my all time top five Favourite Favourite Ebayers.....

I love lists and am a firm believer in the only way something can be appreciated properly is when it is settled firmly within a rank order. So in true High Fidelity style I'd like to share with you one of my all time top five favourite ebayers.......hector081!!! This is not a vintage shop it's just one lady with incredibly good taste parting with some of the most amazing dresses I've ever seen to get the roof of her cottage fixed. I've been watching over the last year and am amazed at the quality and style of some of them.



One of my favourites was this Horrockses gem which sold recently:

And here are a couple that are currently listed:





I would very much recommend any lover of super dooper pretty frocks keeps an eye on this ebayer!


P.S. She also seems to have a very lovely garden!

Another one of my favourite ebay sellers who always has the best in twentieth century design is leapinglad, currently has one of my favourite designs ever on offer! Calyx by Lucienne Day:
