Aurora

Aurora is a lush, magically rich world where spirits are tangible and witchcraft is a respected pursuit. Science and industrialization are relatively new concepts, but they are not counter to magic. Magic is irrefutable and it's been found that machinery can possess its own spirit.

Do you know what happened to Retroscope Fashion, It looks like they just disappeared without a word and no ones talked about it?

I do know, actually! They’re sadly no longer in business, for a couple of reasons:

The owner/designer had to shift her focus to caring for her mother, who was very seriously ill.

While people may not know this, all of the clothing they opened the store with were original designs by the owner. She created them and had them made by an overseas manufacturer, which then promptly started making those items and selling them far and wide at prices below what they were charging Retroscope. She switched to a more reputable manufacturing company, but by then the damage was done to her sales and operating costs.

I miss Retroscope Fashions so much. I have several pieces I bought there that have held up wonderfully, and are still in constant rotation in my wardrobe.
