A rare vintage Trifari equestrian brooch is now part of the costume jewellery range on Vintage Seekers. With its pearl belly, the signed black enamel horse brooch, designed by Alfred Phillipe in the 1960s, is a striking example of original costume jewellery.
The brooch in Vintage Seekers’ collection is part of the 'Jelly Bellies' line Alfred Phillipe, who was formerly jewellery designer for Cartier, created for Trifari. These vintage ‘jelly bellies’ jewellery pieces feature a Lucite faux pearl stone set on an enamel design.
Trifari is one of the best known of all costume jewellery manufacturers. Vintage Seekers, the luxury site for 20th century design and collectibles, also lists a signed enamel and metal crown brooch from the 1960s in its costume jewellery section.

Madonna, rocking her vintage gown & shoes by Vionnet at the Venice Film Festival on Thursday, September 1st!
Sunglasses were also vintage.
Edit: I have an anonymous note informing me the gown was made for her by Vionnet but no other info to back this up. I researched this info, most of the links I find say the gown is vintage but I also saw a close up of the gown and I have to agree that it does not look like vintage but 'vintage style' or repro.

Fall is my favorite season. The leaves begin to turn and the air becomes cool and crisp. The perfect conditions to assert your vintage style and stand out from the others. A great way to achieve your own unique look this Fall is with drool worthy vintage blazers, capes, jackets, coats, suits and accessories. Here is a tiny preview of our Fall look at Noble Savage Vintage. I hope you enjoy.
