featured vendor: Gypsy

Just when you thought you'd died and gone to vintage heaven! The Flea presents the elusive Gypsy, who wants to be your favorite roaming resale boutique. Providence's Ruth Meteer collects closet cast-offs, fabulous vintage finds, and locally crafted favorites. She aims to make high fashion and quality affordable, while diverting passed-over treasures from the waste stream and reducing the carbon footprint of fashion. Ruth is driven by "a deep desire to rescue under-appreciated things, and find them a new life in an adoring new home." Who doesn't want to help rescue a mod Twiggy mini, some Gucci shoes or some Mad Men style '50s wear? Gypsy might be roaming most of the time, but you know you can find her at The Providence Flea on June 2, 9, 16, 23 and 30!
