At Round Top, nothing with history ever truly goes to waste.
Among the antiques and heirloom pieces scattered across the fields, designer Natalie Lindsey is giving new life to old textiles in a way that feels both timeless and completely unexpected. When she isn’t sourcing vintage treasures, including a selection of coveted pieces from Ralph Lauren, she’s transforming antique table linens into beautifully crafted one-of-a-kind skirts and dresses.
Each piece begins with a vintage tablecloth, linen, or lace, often embroidered or delicately patterned from decades past. Rather than letting these textiles fade into storage, Natalie reshapes them into wearable pieces that carry their history forward.
The result feels uniquely Round Top. Heirloom materials, thoughtful craftsmanship, and a fresh perspective on vintage style.
What makes Natalie’s work stand out isn’t just the tablecloth skirts. Her full collection under NL Vintage spans vintage yo-yo quilt maxi skirts, crochet tablecloth pieces, lace and organdy maxis, and even mini dresses crafted from antique textiles. Every item is one of a kind, handmade, and rooted in the idea that beautiful old fabrics deserve a second chapter.
These aren’t DIY circle skirts with an elastic waistband. They’re investment pieces, crafted with intention, and priced accordingly. Most pieces range from $375 to $595, and they sell out fast. If you spot one that speaks to you, don’t walk away from it.
It’s proof that some of the best finds at the show aren’t just antiques sitting on a shelf. They’re the creative ways those antiques get brought back to life, and Natalie Lindsey is one of the best examples of that spirit.
Old textiles. New life. One incredible Round Top find.
