Thank you to everybody who stopped by our shindig last night — I hope you all had fun.

I hope you all have made your way down to the new men’s store (which has replaced our home store recently). If not, you definitely should go check it out. If not now, what better opportunity than our Proto-Man Launch Party on Friday? RSVP to it now on Facebook.

Check out photos from the new store:

Fret not, furniture lovers, we will still be carrying vintage furniture and home decor, just spread throughout both of our stores.

See you Friday!

We just put out a ton of new dresses, including lots of super cute minis!

Fashion Freakout 3 is only a few days away!  This Friday, February 5th, Prototype will be bringing you a night to remember.

Matt Bearden

Prepare to get your laugh on with host Matt Bearden, winner of the Funniest Person in Austin contest and “Best Funny, Funny Man” in the Austin Chronicle.

The Carrots

We are so excited about this year’s Fashion Freakout and it’s only a week away!  It’s going to be bigger and better than last year so we recommend buying your tickets now because they will definitely sell out.

You can buy tickets online  through Transmission Entertainment or in person at Waterloo Records.

This is a tiny sampling of the goodies we’ve put out on the floor this week.

We’ve been pumping out the jams here at Prototype and we’ve got some amazing finds for you to come by and check out! Here’s a little taste…

Ladies and gentleman, get ready for the third annual FASHION FREAKOUT, a catwalk collaboration of rock-minded trendsetters hell-bent on outfitting Austin’s most fashion backward.  PROTOTYPE VINTAGE DESIGN, NEW BOHEMIA, and BUFFALO EXCHANGE define Austin style by mixing time-tested vintage trends with a taste of today, for the look of tomorrow.  On Friday, February 5^th, come see what each local style staple has to offer in the way of men’s and women’s clothing and jewelry, with hair and make-up by AVANT SALON and SPA.  The MOHAWK’s multilevel terrace provides vantage points aplenty as PROTOTYPE VINTAGE DESIGN sets the scene with stage and party décor fit for a rock-n-roll queen.

Come on and get it on early with rock-n-roll deejay sets from BEN BLACKOUT and ANGEL the RIPPER, drink specials, and a Proto-photo booth snapped by the one and only ALISON NARRO.  Friday night’s feelin’ alright with MATT BEARDEN playing master of ceremonies and the good lookin’ lads and lasses from THE CARROTS will perform two sets intent on getting some booties shimmying and a shakin’.

This rock-n-roll fashion show welcomes all ages to join in the psychedelic freakout.  Both oldies but goodies and the youth of today
will find fashion inspiration in this shindig, and it’s only ten bucks for adults and twelve bucks for minors.  Last year’s smashing success sold out, so don’t be fashionably late, the doors open at 7pm, and the cuties hit the catwalk promptly at 9pm.  For advance tickets, go to:

transmissionentertainment.com or
mohawkaustin.com

V.I.P. seating with swag bags is available to press and photographers only, until space runs out.  RSVP now to reserve your front row seat to see the tastiest eye candy dressed in budget-friendly fashion in a glamorous rock-n-roll ballroom.

As you may or may not have noticed, the Prototype Website(tm) is UNDER CONSTRUCTION and a work in progress.  Thank you for your patience!
