   Such  was the stampede of electronic buyers that Madrigal found himself steering a major business in antique and vintage clothing. For five [eighteen now] years, TheFrock.com has been a key site for anybody interested in browsing through and possibly buying Civil War capes, thirties organzas and chiffons, postwar haute couture, Liza Minnelli's castoffs, and just plain old pretty things. The unifying motif of Madrigal's collection is not archival importance or curatorial zeal,  it's all about fabulous frocks that women have worn and loved for their beauty, unique details, and flattering silhouettes.
