SOLVED. Early 1990s, obscure, light female-oriented fiction. Humour (romance?). Like Tama Janowitz but less literary. Australian female author. Young woman in NY works the door of a club. Obsessed with her vintage frocks. Many descriptions of clothes.

I read this in the early 90s and it was obscure then. I definitely remember the author was Australian. The main character lives in a small apartment in New York. She’s probably skint. She is obsessed with her collection of vintage dresses she refers to as her frocks (but I can’t remember if she is supposed to be Australian?) she works on the door at a club and decides who gets in. Or maybe her trans friend does? There is a lot of description of clothing. I think there is a romance at some point but I can’t remember the detail.
