Mimi La Muse grew up watching re-runs of “I Love Lucy” sparking her fascination with classic Hollywood films and the quintessential styles of 1940’s/1950's fashion. She collects vintage patterns and embraces bygone eras; where manners mattered, cars had curves and women did too! She’s old-school class with a modern day spritz!
