CANNONBALL AND TILLY
Cannonball and Tilly opened their doors seven years ago in the
Little Ethiopia Fairfax District, with highly curated garments and
accessories from the 1890s to the 1990s. Owner Laura Kranitz's
motto: "We don't sell subtle—each piece is the statement." Her
background in design dictates her choices, focusing on prints, pat-
terns, and details, as she travels far and wide sourcing particularly
novel pieces. There is also a broad but unique collection of men's
attire. Kranitz's passion for vintage began at age 8 when she bought
her neighbor's entire 1930s gown collection for 25¢ a gown. She
studied fashion design at the Seattle Art Institute, then spent 20
years working in vintage and moonlighting as a milliner, honing
her skills. Cannonball and Tilly provides studio services and is cur-
rently open seven days a week from noon to 6 p.m., and by private
appointment.
