Company History and Current News. Up coming Magic Trade Show Announcement. Including recent list of Fashion Magazine Spreads.

Company History:

   Stop Staring! has grown to be one of the top providers of 1950s Vintage Inspired Fashion! The company burst onto the Retro Scene, with a fresh new approach to the classic, yet sexy look of the glamour icons of the late 1940s, and 1950s! The company which began over 10 years ago, was the dream of a young Latina Designer, Alicia Estrada. She learned early on, the value of a dollar! Alicia learned how to make her own clothes for college, thus her creativity was a direct result of necessity! She knew that hard work, and persistence, would eventually lead to a great future in fashion! She followed her dreams, and made them a reality!

   Alicia first introduced the retro line in the summer of 1997, at The Hootenanny, an outdoor Rockabilly, and Swing Festival! She had about 40 dresses, which had sold out before the day ended! Each dress sewn by Alicia herself! The line was an instant success, leading to direct sales with local boutiques! The store owners could not believe the mass of girls going crazy for the dresses!

"While everyone was focusing there attention on clothing inspired by the 1960s and 70s......I knew that I had to do something different! I felt that in fashion.....you are either a leader, or a follower....so I decided to lead my company into the retro 1940s, and 1950s! It worked! We have had such great success in this classic retro market, our sales are bursting at the seams! Of course, it has been such a great advantage, to be published and endorsed by such cool Retro Magazines! These magazines are at the heart of this 50s Vintage Lifestyle!
