Vintage Scarf Dress...Sustainable Fashion . it was a trend in 2012 and I just found out...

Did I see this in 2012?  I don't think so.  I recently watched, yet another youtube video, it was about repurposing vintage clothing.  The presenter has a store in LA, and has some crazy beautiful clothing.
She pulled out a vintage scarf dress, that she said was her favorite, and I thought, I understand why.  Could be that I didn't see this when it was a trend because I didn't have that many vintage scarves around, it wouldn't have been on my radar.  Since my move in 2015, my favorite thrift store would have some amazing silk scarves, and I started buying them.... why?  Haven't a clue.... this could be the reason why, there was a dress lurking in the scarves.... or a kimono... or a top.
