On November 28th, Rosie The Rebel – a retailer of retro and alternative clothing – hosted a fantastically themed party at The Great Hall, in Toronto:
Blast From the Past Vintage Prom: For Those Born in the Wrong Era
Think back to the prom scenes in classic movies like “Back To The Future” and “Grease” —> **swoon** What a terrific idea to recreate a ‘perfect night’ to live out your Vintage Prom Fantasy!
For those of us who were born in the wrong era, Vintage Prom gave us an opportunity to live out THAT fantasy Prom night!
The Toronto Vintage Society was on hand to help decorate and set-up the place with a Winter Wonderland theme. There was live music from the GreaseMarks with Rock and Roll hits from the 50s and 60s, followed by tunes by DJ Dr. Velvet.Live Music from the GreaseMarks
There were Vendors vending, Single Hearts ready for pinning, Ballot casting for Prom King & Queen ….. and there were even a bunch of Swing Dancers on the floor that night – myself included!
PLUS a special performance from Miss Kitten Monroe:
Me with Miss Kitten Monroe
And there was even an amazing Photo Booth set up to capture your cheesy Prom moments!!! Photos below by Eye Candee Visuals/Ashley Gillick:

Toronto Vintage Society – aren’t we a good looking’ group? :)
What I Wore:
How lucky was I to have been a bridesmaid earlier this year to already have a perfectly matching aqua coloured dress at-the-ready for this Winter Wonderland themed event! Sadly, it got terribly wrinkled throughout the night… not cute, sigh…
Rocker boots under my prom dress a la “My-So-Called-Life”….
