Nora Jane: Nashville, TN, United States; My name is Nora Jane Struthers. I am 26 years old and I’ve been in Nashville for two years, via New York City. My Vintage Voyage began right after I graduated from NYU and I started playing out, around New York, in a bluegrass duo with my dad. On stage I always dawned a dress from the 40’s or 50’s and my dad spiffed up in a suit and tie—the tie color chosen to match my outfit. Somehow it just feels right to sing songs that have so much history in a dress that is itself a piece of history. Now that I am living in Nashville, I have my own band: Nora Jane Struthers & The Bootleggers. Traveling around the country playing music, and stopping at antique malls, thrift and vintage stores, has helped me take my dress collection to a new level…I used to have a pretty dress for every day of the week; now I have a pretty dress for every day of the next three and a half months. I love vintage for the same reasons the other Vintage Voyagers do: they’re designed and cut beautifully for women’s bodies, the fabrics are durable and the prints are quirky and unique, they often have pockets, charming buttons, embroidery, and perhaps above all this, each dress has a story.
