Here’s a little preview from my forthcoming early 1930s inspired bow dress collection, which will launch mid-August.
The lovely Jemima dress from my previous 1930s style dress collection here revamped, in printed brown, beige and white cotton with bakelite button and buckle details.
This two- tone silk crepe back satin creation in kingfisher blue and sky blue is inspired by the love of contrasting colours and playing with structure in the 1930s, highlighting the two-tone stand-up collar and contrasting wedges down the hemline. Sleeves closure with fabric covered buttons.
This burgundy beauty was made of original printed 1930s vintage rayon, with 3/4 length sleeves, a small yoke with light yellow bakelite buttons and a darker shade of yellow bakelite buckle. It has two pleats down the front and collar closes with a hook at the back.
