Handara needed something to wear to a vintage-themed day wedding in Jakarta for TOMORROW, and came to us hoping to find something at the very last minute.

Lucky for her, she found an outfit that she loved, without needing to alter it!

Heng ah!

Here, she models the outfit that she purchased from GDO: a fuchsia jumpsuit worn with a purple elastic belt with gold chains, both from the 1980s. She didn’t get the earrings in the end, but they were our top choice for the outfit. They look FIERCE!
What do you think? We think she looks awesome!

Rocking the 1980s!

Bring out the gambler in you with this dice necklace! Dices, symbolic of luck, are the main focus on this 1970s multi-strand necklace. The dices are all six-sided, and vary in size.

Very kitsch, and fun! Would go great with denim or a simple dress.

Hello, I am a teddy bear brooch, and someone made me in the 1980s!

I’m not very tall. I’m pretty small actually. Also, I’m wearing a very fitted blue enamel waist coat, and a matching bow tie with a rhinestone.

Do you like what I’m wearing?

Can you see how I am waving at you?

Pin me on your dress, lapel, bag, or anywhere that would make you smile!

I wear enamel!

Jewellery is an important part to accessorising any outfit. And you must know by now that the GDO girls loooooove their vintage jewellery!

Here’s one of our recent pieces – a 1950s choker with five beautifully emerald green stones that could very well be chrysoprase gemstones.

What we’re sure of is that we love its intense green. The stones also resemble jade, which we love, and have a nice heaviness to it.

We wish we were gemologists!
