Here comes the mid- 20th Century belle
This lovely summer dress was made of original vintage 1950s printed cotton with a Parisian city scene. With mother of pearl buttons.
Say hello to the mid-20s tie-dress
This little number in chocolate brown crepe is part of my homage to the 1920s casual day wear.
A 1930s darling is born
This little sweetie was made of original late 1920s-early 30s cotton, details including scalloped edges on front and pockets. All original trimmings, blue early plastic buttons and mother of pearl buckle. Fabric sourced by the fantastic Ian Drummond Vintage in Toronto, Canada.

A little sneak peek from a forthcoming collection
I’m working on a blouse collection based on the London girl at the office from the 1930s to the 1960s. And here I present a little taster- the 30s blouse.
More details coming soon…
