There’s a lot to be said for being trendy, but it is better to be timeless. Fashion authority C. Madeleine has built an international reputation on sorting haute-couture trash from treasure. Her 10,000-square-foot store in North Miami Beach houses a century’s worth of evolving style. The wealth of C. Madeleine’s sartorial knowledge has been condensed into the Vintage Clothing Price Guide, a veritable bible for fashionistas interested in learning about costs for frocks from the Victorian era through the Shoulder Pad and Sequin Period, a.k.a. the Eighties. Couture chameleons should reserve a copy at C. Madeleine’s store (13702 Biscayne Blvd., North Miami Beach) and get it autographed at tonight’s fabulous book-signing. Meet local fashion plates and then enjoy a show featuring incredible clothing and accessories at 8:00 at Books & Books. Call 305-442-4408, or visit www.booksandbooks.com and www.cmadeleines.com.
