In honor of the last day of ‪#‎NYFW‬ in New York City yesterday we are posting our photo of the ‪#‎fashionable‬ Ripi Latest Style Dresses in the Bronx. ‪

#‎ralphlauren‬ grew up in the ‪#‎Bronx‬ in the forties and fifties and we can imagine his parents possibly shopping at this ‪#‎store‬. Ripi Latest Style Dresses is sadly no longer in business but we love its ‪#‎vintage‬ ‪#‎handpainted‬ ‪#‎sign‬ with its ‪#‎script‬ ‪#‎lettering‬. Photo from 2004 appears in our book "Store Front: The Disappearing Face of New York".
