FORWARD 10 YEARS – SAME ERA, TRUE VINTAGE COTTON HOUSE-DRESS FROM THE EARLY 1960’S

IMG_1368Just like the one shown yesterday, I love this style.  It’s so comfy and at-home, but still with classic good looks and wonderful  fabric.  That’s something that can almost always be depended on with true vintage clothing.

In this case, I’m in love with the colors and the soft material.  What could be more comfortable in the warm weather to come?  Easy to wear and the tie waist makes the fit so custom-perfect every time . . . . . . . ..

TRUE VINTAGE 1950’S LADIES PLAY OUTFIT

IMG_1390IMG_1388 Doesn’t this fit Stella perfectly?  I think she’s a 1950’s vintage size 10, as is this lovely ensemble,  Modern size XS.

Originally made by a California designer.  Fully lined and with the nice tailoring you would expect.  Here are the back buttons again, and a metal zipper right in the middle of the back waist.  Pants with these fit very nicely.  I wonder why they gave it up?

Don’t you love Fifties prints?  DRUMS!!!   How bizarre and fun.  No pockets – just streamlined style.  Love it that my vintage KEDS match it exactly!

TRUE VINTAGE SHORT BLACK GABARDINE JACKET FROM THE 1940S.

Even though I’d want a heavier coat or jacket over this for winter, I’m often wearing a jacket inside all day this time of year.  For cool days and evenings, I love the trim, square shape of this jacket though the shoulders are not heavily padded.

Nice nipped waist, zip front, cuff detail, front welts and it may have tab detail at the waist and, maybe, the wrists. It’s simple and tailored with a crisp look.

Not many of these are around now in excellent condition like this one. Very special – I was thrilled to find it! Looks equally good with pants or a skirt – that’s the beauty of this short style. The lack of length means that I could wear it with any style skirt – pencil or full. So versatile!

Love the ’40s. This one takes me right into film noir, walking the dark city streets…
