Oxfam is running a competition to find the faces of four decades of vintage fashion. The winners will symbolise the 1950s, ‘60s, ‘70s and ‘80s and feature in fabulous photography on the Oxfam Online Shop.
If you’re interested, get in quick – the closing date for entries is 15 March.
Applications are invited from bloggers interested in vintage fashion and style. Winners will have their photographs taken in a professional photo shoot by leading photographer Alex Lambrechts, whose images grace Vogue, Elle and GQ.
Stylists on the day include celebrity makeup artist Rosie Lewis, whose work has been featured in The Times, Hello and Red. Hairdresser-to-the-stars Nicky Clarke is sending one of his team.
The competition will be judged by the Daily Telegraph’s senior fashion news and features Editor Victoria Moss.
