This lime green silk beauty has the very popular sweetheart neckline with tulle top with long sleeves, yet another staple of the era, creating the illusion effect. The floor length skirt makes it for more formal, evening wear. The belt also features an original 1950s diamante buckle. Zip closure at the back.
This lovely early 60s inspired cocktail dress in kingfisher blue silk taffeta has the typical pleated ‘puffed’ skirt of the era, a slashed neckline, with a deeper one at the back. The original 50s plastic buckle has a mother of pearl feel to it.
This lovely mid-1930s inspired beauty in chocolate brown silk/wool crepe blend with raglan balloon sleeves and slashed neckline include a silk rust orange cravat type detail very typical of the era, with bakelite button side fastening and also a beautiful deco belt buckle.
Here comes a beautiful timeless Bridal in Tana Lawn Liberty cotton with slightly puffed cap sleeves, a raised sweetheart v- neckline, v at the back with fabric covered buttons closure, nipped in inserted waistband, and pockets at side seams.
Here I present a mini collection based on the idea and variations of the same dress, worn at different times of the day, mid-1930s style:
Day, afternoon and evening.
