Hi Mary & Ray. Just dropped by to say hello. I highly recommend this site for those looking to get the best Rock & Roll and Swing gear!
|
You've created a very unique site, with a pretty cool theme. If I ever need any rock 'n' roll gear, I know where to go. *lol*
|
|
Dear Mary, You don’t know me but I have seen you dance many times during the last two or three years. You and Ray are absolutely wonderful to watch and it is not much wonder that you have won so many competitions. I also looked at your clothes at Adrian’s dance a few weeks ago and they deserve their “Gorgeous” name. I will introduce myself to you the next time you are at Adrian’s dance, because I would love you to make me some things.
|
And to think I thought rock 'n' roll wasn't on the web... I obviously didn't search in the right places. I will certainly add your site to my links page... thanks. And you've been added to my favourites... I think I'll be using up all my free time online this month.
|
|
Hi, You really do have wonderful oldies attire. I will spread the word and I have put you on my links page. Thanks for linking me to your site. Regards
|
Congratulations kids on your excellent rockin' website and awards. We are proud to share links with you. All the best
|
|

|
You've done a WONDERFUL job!!!! You have a GREAT product line, your petticoats really caught my eye. You've done such a nice job on the site, those awards are well earned---
I will be back (maybe for that petticoat).. see you SOON
|
|
Truly gorgeous! Just looking makes you wanna get up and dance.
|
Really groovy cool gear! Ps, I love your website, I wish mine was as good as yours, actually it is one of the nicest, yet uncluttered ones ive seen yet.
|
|
I love your site! Thank you for visiting my "boomers" site! Peace~
|
Great site and great products, Would love to visit your country someday... RockNRoll...
|
|
Hi! What a great idea! And you have so many styles to choose from. I know you're gonna be a big success.
|
Nice site! Keep up the good work. :-)
|
|
Hi! as you can gather my name is Carla and i am 14 and i do rock'n'roll dancing . I've been doing it for a year now at Southside Rock'n'Roll . I do it with my best buddy Kelly and we enjoy it . I would like to say that i enjoyed reading through your web site and i will encourage others to read it .
|
Hey great site, thanks for adding my link. I really appreciate it. I'll put yours on right away. Very COOOOOL site... still need to go check out more.. love ya and keep on rockin' or whichever one you choose!! : )
|
|
I keep looking for the animated jitterbuging... I can remember seeing Buddy Holly down at (then) the new Vets... Memorial in Columbus, Ohio even before they had the windows set in the building; and Fats Domino in a "warehouse" club down off of Michigan Ave... If a beautiful, young, lady in my sophomore high school had not insisted I take jitterbug lessons with her, I, probably, would have missed-out on the most fun I've had throughout my life... dancing. I've just got to get back to the rest of your pages now... WOW, great site,
|
Mary, your site is a real trap... I keep coming back to it because you have such a fantastic and varied collection of links... but then I so often find you have added so many good things, that I end up spending far too much time at gorgeous... :) and I just LOVE your clothes... your site is one of my very favorites...
ps: I love the way you put the "3 dots" at the end of your sentences...

Hi Mary and Ray, Thanks for your recent great comments via email about my web site. Sure appreciate them! I enjoyed your site, and the clothes are just fabulous. The fashion show was another favorite stop. I know it takes dedication and effort to keep up with it all, so good luck to you on your endeavor and keep up the great work! I will add you as a link to FashionSense very shortly. Thanks again for the response.
|
Mary & Ray I just LUV your site. You have such a great selection of clothes (my friend Juliana bought a skirt from you and she's rapt in it), so expect to hear from me soon for one of your 50's dresses. And Ray, I listened to your 1956 Olympic Games experience. It was not only such a wonderful story (which couldn't happen these days) but you also have such a wonderful voice and I just adore your Aussie accent. LOL to both of you,
|
|
Very impressive. My regards to the creator. It was very interesting to stay here. I really enjoyed my visit. Greetings from Finland!
|
Ray's a clever boy. Bloody good site.
|
|
I just love rock & roll, I used to be quite a dancer myself in my younger years (but not in your class it seems). But it's not only rock & roll - your site has so much to see, and so many fantastic links to such a wide variety of sites. I started bookmarking just about every page - and thought "how ridiculous". I've now decided to bookmark your opening page because I know I'll be back time and time again to keep on "exploring". Thank you so much for such a wonderful web site, and best of all, it's here in AUSTRALIA.

Dear Ray & Mary,
Hi! I'm being very naughty and e-mailing you during some spare time I've got at work, school actually (I'm a teacher).
I haven't visited your site for a coupla months now. I was very impressed back then, but even more so now! You've obviously done a lot more work on it Ray and it's looking terrific.
I've just spent about an hour looking at the links, jokes, etc. I also LOVE the colours you've used. I was looking at it as I'm teaching our Middle Department kids (grades 3 & 4) very basic rock 'n roll so they can put on a demo at the end of year family night on Dec 17th and the kids need to research 50's clothing styles for their costumes. Your site will give them heaps of ideas.
I also brought along the pieces I've bought from you for Russ & myself during the past 2 years, so they could see the real thing. I like the scans of pictures from the magazines you've got, Mary.
Must go, but wanted to tell you how impressed I am Ray. Thanks for a great website which is so interesting to look at as well as being very informative. The kids also love it.
Look forward to seeing you at a dance somewhere soon. Russ & I are getting married early next year and we'll be looking for 50's gear to wear. We're having a dance after a civil ceremony where all our friends will be attending. Will contact you soon.
Have a great Chrissie and keep on rockin'.
Best Wishes from Bendigo

Fabulous Site! I want to say thank you to Mary who recently made my GORGEOUS Swing clothes, I highly recommend her - she made my clothes exactly the way I wanted them - not to mention how lovely she is, she is Gorgeous :-)
|
Great site and I guess I will be spending some considerable time on it to scan all the links and promotions. Thanks for coming along to our dances and your kind comments in our Guest Book.
|
|
Thank you very much keeping 50's Rock ´n´ Roll alive in your colourful pages!! And greetings from snowy Finland! -Tip Top Daddy- (young rockin´ man who had lost his big heart to 50´s Rockabilly many years ago...!) 5=)
|
Super great site and as you can see by my email address I love anything to do with the 50s. I drive a 59 Ford every day. Keep up the good work keeping the 50's alive. Alma Michigan U.S.A.
|
|
One of the best web sites we have looked at, and rocking gear to boot.
|
What a Great Site. I really enjoyed my visit and I will be back. This is Super. Thanks for sharing this. Great Job.
|
|
Wow, your clothing designs are beautiful and unique. I enjoyed visiting your other pages too, the music and links and of course learning a little more about Australia. Thanks so much for taking the time to sign my guestbook giving me the opportunity to visit your web site.
|
Thanks for your prompt delivery of my bowling shirt. It fits great and the quality is AOK. I hope lots of people see this message because you deserve the business - and I see what you mean by "Great Aussie Service". We Americans can learn a lot from you. Thanks again.
|
|
We see you are going to Wintersun again this year. We remember you very clearly from last year and your dancing is just like your website - FABULOUS.
|
Your site is gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous & gorgeous. That's why I keep coming back. Love Amy
PS: Oh by the way just in case I forget, your site is gorgeous.
|
|
Hello what a great site (prosit). It was really nice being able to catch up with you. We especially enjoyed your photos. Keep up the good work. Being so far away we felt closer to you because it has been quite a while since we have seen you. Well done again. With lots of Best wishes from your brother in Malta.
|
What a great site! Congratulations and thank you for all your hard work. As a rocker interested in travel I would like to see clubs in other countries and this web page certainly helps. Thank you again. Which club are you folks with?
(answer: we're members of lakeside rockers at www.lakesiderockers.asn.au )...
|
|
This is a great website which I found by accident. I do rock n roll in Grafton, NSW, with Lisa and Dallas Bryant. Keep up the good work with the site.
|
I found your content refreshing and your website design quite easy to navigate.
|
|
Your site is gorgeous! Lots of information in a fun and lively way. I have enjoyed my visit and wish you the very best. Kindest regards,
|
At last somewhere I can find exactly what I am looking for. Thank you Georgeous. I also do Rock and Roll in Grafton with Lisa and Dallas. Great to see a fellow rock and roller at this site.
|
|
Great site... I'll be visiting it a lot. Good to see some great Rock & Roll
interest. Keep it up and Keep on Rockin'.
|
I'm very impressed.. you have some great gear! Keep up the wonderful work! (I love the shoes also.)
|
|
This is great. I can't believe I found it. I've heard about this site its just GREAT :O)
|
"Four on the Floor" (50/60's Band). What a great site! Mary and Ray are not only nice folk, but are very skilful and competent. Thanks for the great band shirts...
|
|
Thank you Mary and Ray for my bowling shirt and Frankie shoes. The shirt is just what I wanted, it's very well made - and my shoes are just brilliant, they are so comfortable too. Also, I had no idea how good your website was going to be when you told me about it. I have now been back to it about a dozen times and even made it my starting page because there's so much to see on it and it's a great starting to point to see other rock & roll sites. I look forward to seeing you at Geelong at the weekend.

Shoes arrived today. Excellent, thank you!! They fit like a glove and the darker blue is definitely a lot nicer. Will give Mary a call about the shirts soon.

I am "new" to computers in my home. I found your groovy site and fell in love. Thanks for having it.
|
|
Hello from down under! Cool site, well done.
|
Fantastic. I would like to know where u are situated so as i can buy some gear to enhance my dancing.
|
|
You Folk have really expanded since the last time I was here... We just got back from the Carribean, and for the price, I think we could have gone on to visit with you all... I am checking your vest out. Great selection.
|
Hello nice page and it downloads very fast, enjoyed it very much, take care.
The internet is a great place to showcase art and increase awareness in the
variety of excellent work available. Something for everyone.
|
|
Hello Mary & Ray,
Some major time and effort has gone into your site since the last time I visited. It looks fantastic. Hope your passion leads you to a great future. xoxoxox
|
Hi Mary & Ray
Great website very informative keep up the good work, see you soon.
|
|
Loved your website and loved all those shoes. My favorite styles, which I have been looking for, for a long time.
|
Just found your site. BRILL long live rock n roll.
|
|
I am starting a new life, so I am interested in starting to learn rocknroll, so I thought the best place to look would be on the net. Your site is wonderful, thankyou.
|
I was very impressed with your website. I am only hoping that you will have a supplier here in Perth.
(yes, we do - contact Michelle or Shakila at Rythym Street Dancewear on 08 9361 6611...)
|
|
Excellent gear - would like to find similar site in NZ.
|
Loved your page, hope you visit us on the sunshine coast. Our dance club is at the wharf Mooloolaba.
|
|
Nice webpage - it is well put together and in good taste.
|
Hi Mary & Ray. Love your site.
Lea & Russell

Hi,
I've been searching the web for ages looking for clothes and stumbled on your website. it's ace. I'm 17 and do rock n roll dancing with a group called The Bendigo Jailhouse Rockers inc in vic. Love the lines.
|
Hi Harris,
Groovey baby. Didn't know you liked Rock n Roll. Call me or email.
|
|
very cool site you folks have here, gorgeous even. best of luck to you....
|
Good site. I think you have it all.
|
|
Very good webpage you have here, and best greetings to all your visitors.
|
I love it!
|
|
I have just received the skirt and petticoat in the mail today and am absolutely thrilled with them. They look great and are exactly what I wanted. I am sure I will be spinning around and looking great on the dance floor on the 7th September at the Pink & Black V-Tones ball. Thank you Mary for your very quick service. Mike is also very pleased with his shoes and has been wearing them to dance lessons. Once again thank you both for all your assistance with our purchases from "Gorgeous Gear".
(Lakeside/Schoolhouse Rockers)

Really enjoyed looking through the site, even though I was meant to be working on a poster. But it was worth it, you are not joking about having a cuppa while looking through it.
|
|
I am currently doing a rock and roll dance for my A-level Performing arts course at the Rickstones College in Essex, England and this Web site has helped lots thank-you.

Am happy with my purchase made from Gorgeous Gear on Saturday nite (28/9/02). And I like the website.
Best regards
|
|
Wow, your site offers so much! I'm not done looking yet but I thought I'd take the time to try signing both guestbooks. If you have the time I would appreciate it if you signed my guestbook sometime.
|
Mary you may not know it, but I'm not the only person who is rapt in the clothes you've made - your reputation is spreading like "wildfire". Dressmakers who can combine quality workmanship, design flair, affordable prices - with a genuine "feel" for rock 'n' roll & swing clothes are in very short supply. I hope that many people see this comment because you are a real "gem".
|
|
What a great website!! It has everything. I'm particularly interested in the Swing scene as I have a 7-piece Neo-Swing band looking for work around Melbourne and also need to update clothing for the band members. This site has it all. Excuse me while I keep looking - it could take some time.
|
I agree with Cynthia. My Sailor Pants and twirly skirt are fabulous.
|
|
This is the most gorgeous guestbook! Thanks for your website, it's great.
|
Thought the site was excellent and will DEFINITELY be back! Waiting for the pages to load is worth it to see the range you offer.
|
|
Nice Site and fun to be around.
|
Great web site you have.
|
|
Hi Mary & Ray, looks a great site & you have gone to a lot of effort. Re Martin's shoes - size 8 "Sting"-Black & Black, we can be at Wyndham Leisure Centre about 7pm Tues 31/12 before we go on to Renegades at Williamstown.
|
You guys really know how to put a website together - very pro!
|
|
You are a wonderful couple. The world could been much better if people like you were more! That's ROCK'N'ROLL! That's our lives! Many greetings from Thessaloniki Greece, from me, and the other members of "the BULLETS"
|
Wow, what an extensive site you have! I had a great time looking through it all. We just launched our website and we'd love it if you added a link to us on your site! We sell an original line of clip-on devil horns that I know you'll love.
|
|
We have really enjoyed looking through your site and would like to exchange links with you. (WOW what GREAT links and very inspiring spirit that shines through even on the net!!) We have added your to our site on the links page at with over 115+ other vintage clothing stores: Velvet Pocket Vintage.
|

Your clothes and website look great. Good luck with your endeavours.
Love, Rex and Jan
|
Thank you! Your site's inspired me to investigate those dance lessons I've been day-dreaming about for years!
|
|
A great site, you make wonderful clothes of which i own a few, cant wait til my new dress comes :)
|
Hi guys, it's been a while since we've spoken or seen each other, we're from bendigo, have lots of your gear. the website looks great, it's also been a while since i've looked at it. love the colours and all the "stuff". good on you!!
|
|
I was directed to your site from a mate of mine in Melbourne who is a swing dancer and was instantly interested in a pair of Alexi shoes (the Brenda style in the first picture of them with no changes) and I was just wondering how I could go about getting a pair of these shoes (i live in Sydney) - if perhaps there was an order form that i could send to you and how much the postage would be to Sydney? Thankyou so much! There aren't nearly enough sites like yours in Australia!
|
Wow fab what a site. Hubby and I are new to this and love it to bits. Dancing is so much fun!! Love your gear can we have a catalogue to show off please.
|
|
You guys sure do have a fantastic site. I reckon I will be coming back often especially with all those great shoes and clothes, not to mention so many swing and rock & roll links.
