Love this jersey! It works with jeans and even slacks! It can be dressed down or up! This is a rare, grade school, 80's, soccer team jersey from Australia. Purchased this unique top at a vintage trunk show in Williamsburg 2 years ago. M.L.T.F.C. stands for the team's name but unfortunately, I forgot the name! :(
Half cotton, half polyester, and super soft!!
V-neck. Love the 2nd V-neck sewn on below the actual collar line!
Best fits size Small (stretches a little bit) but Australian size reads: 34-85cm on the label.

Sewdown Fashion Show Music/ DJS/ Art/ Dance / Sample Sale! Friday, October 21, 2005, fashion show at 10pm The Vanguard, 6021 Hollywood Blvd. Los Angeles
Sewdown takes a high-energy yet folksy approach to fashion week. Organizer/designer Atousa G. has refined Sewdown's special blend of fashion, art, music and sample sale in the event's 7th year. The main draw is a runway presentation showcasing 15 LA designers. But, unlike such shows across town at Smashbox Studios at the official fashion week, the fun here doesn't end when the last model has left the runway. Before and after the catwalk event, there are plenty of other distractions: Booths selling original designs, painters painting, DJs spinning, dancers grooving and cocktails buzzing.
P.KaBu: I see you (on the runway) Friday-Sunday, October 21-23, 2005 Twin Springs Building, Los Angeles Runway shows once an hour, 2-4pm, 7-9pm; Trade and Trunk show 12-5pm $25 for three shows
This funky alternative to Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week showcases individual runway presentations by 18 designers over 3 days. This is the 5th season that organizer Jose Angel has offered an alternative to industry-only runway shows during fashion week. Maggie Barry and Sharagano are the best-known of the lines showing; the rest are emerging designers. Designers will also be selling their work. On Friday and Saturday, groups of three consecutive afternoon shows start at 2pm (cost: $25). A second group of three shows will begin both those days at 6pm, both of which carry a $25 admission charge separate from the first groups in the afternoon. But on Sunday, the $25 admission is good for all six shows, starting at 12pm.

FAB Market A monthly street festival brings together artists, designers, and jewelers! October 15, 2005, 12-6pm+, Free SCI-ARC Gallery (east side of Sci-Arc)
The artists think FAB is fab because it gives them a place to get to know each other, and also—perhaps more importantly—because it gives them a regular venue at which their wares can be peddled. Unusual paintings? Edgy fashions? Interesting jewelry? Food? Music? All can be found at FAB, held on the third Saturday of each month.
During LA Fashion Week, Fab Market is hosting "Fuse," a free runway presentation with more than a dozen designers including Cut Cute Couture, Bumble Bee, Sarah Perry and Gavin Carroll. The runway shows start at 2pm with shows every half-hour until 5pm—then there is a show every hour. Fuse’s independent runway series, featuring 10 emerging LA designers showcasing their spring 2006 collections.
FAB Market features over 50 of LA’s emerging artists & designers selling original one of a kind works of art, fashion, jewelry and gifts for the home. The October 15th FAB will feature fine art by artists such as: Omar Rashif, Lisa Levy, Melissa J. Regas, Alex Skramble, Pamela Houlihan, Patrick Haemmerlein and many more. Fashion designers will include: Spectr, Frecuencia Modulada, Bumble Bee, Sarah Perry, Araceli, Cut Cute Couture, Cristina Castellanos, Patrick Santa Ana, Elisa Padilla, Gavin Carrol, Angel Alban, Chi Izewaka, and more. Jewelry designers include: O Studio Works, Ali Baird, Beth Morrison, Susan Ankersen, ORit Harpax, Mataji Booker, Sherry Miljoner, Lara Noel Hill and more.
