Sherbet colors – True vintage Spring & Summer hats.
Raffia/cellophane true vintage hats from the 1960s. Love these spring colors! A hat like this really perks up any outfit – could be dressy or casual. Most have grosgrain ribbon trim. Mod, ladylike, surprising! Look for these nest tiime you’re thrift-shopping, because you just never know . . . .

This dress from the 1950s, made by Lanz, is perfect for a Christmas party! I can just imagine serving eggnog in front of the fire to family and friends. I wore it to a party a couple of years ago (with pearls, of course).
It is a substantial brushed fabric in bright red with a stiff underskirt that makes it poufy when worn. 3/4 sleeves, a scoop neckline, little flowers embroidered in black and a belted wasp waist complete the design.
From what I’ve seen of the Lanz garments, they seem to have been a “preppy” style. Of course, many of the styles made in the ’50’s look preppy! Warm, too. Wish I had a sleigh ride to go on. Very festive!
