At Hourglass Vintage in Madison, Wisconsin, every item in
the boutique has a story to tell . . . and so do the women
whose lives the store touches. Yellow Samsonite
suitcase with ivory, quilted lining, 1950s A
small-town girl with a flair for fashion, Violet Turner had
always dreamed of owning a shop like Hourglass Vintage. But
while she values the personal history behind each beautiful
item she sells, Violet is running from her own past. Faced
with the possibility of losing the store to an unscrupulous
developer, she realizes that despite her usual self-reliance
she cannot save it alone. Taffeta tea-length
wedding gown with scooped neckline and cap sleeves,
1952 Eighteen-year-old April Morgan is nearly
five months along in an unplanned pregnancy when her hasty
engagement is broken. When she returns the perfect vintage
wedding dress to Violet's shop, she discovers a world of new
possibilities, and an unexpected sisterhood with women who
won't let her give up on her dreams. Orange silk
sari with gold paisley design, 1968 Betrayed by
her husband, Amithi Singh begins selling off her vibrant
Indian dresses, remnants of a life she's determined to leave
behind her. After decades of housekeeping and parenting a
daughter who rejects her traditional ways, she fears her
best days are behind her . . . until she discovers an outlet
for her creativity and skills with a needle and thread.
An engaging story that beautifully captures the
essence of friendship and style, Vintage is a
charming tale of possibility, of finding renewal, love, and
hope when we least expect it
