For the graduating co-ed, the pretty bridesmaid or the special date-night – this Forties frock was a winner!
A lovely swing dress, of two layers, with a circle skirt and lace mesh overlay. This is so pretty!
It’s got a v-neck front and back, with a long side zipper. It swings and sways and such a flattering fit. I just love that cafe au lait color.
I believe that the fabric is rayon, at least for the dress underneath. That fabric was SO commonly used during the ’40’s. It can pose some care issues, but it has such nice qualities otherwise that it’s usually worth it.
This is not a Here I am. Look at ME!! dress, but once you’re seen, you won’t be forgotten. Best not to choose it when you’re going incognito . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
True vintage summer elegance and nostalgia . . .. .
Absolutely fabulous – true vintage movie star nightwear. I always LOVE finding things like this. It’s true fantasy apparel.
There is nothing more luscious to wear than high quality silk. These aren’t top-of-the-line, but they’re a cut above what’s around these days.
And, just look at those PJ’s – can’t you just see Lana Turner or Greer Garson in those? And, the Asian – style bed jacket is full of mystery and intrigue . . . . . . . . . . .

Spectator style, black and white – always classic, always right.
A pair of, low-heeled classic quasi-spectator-style Mod pumps. Black and white is always “in”, and is always de la mode. Very practical for any Sixties – era outfit. You can also dance the night away in comfort.
This pair is by the famous maker Florsheim, a quality name for decades. Looks great Spring, Summer or Fall. Probably in Winter, too. A classic’s a classic, right?

LOVE these soft, almost-sheer cotton blend fabrics that were used for little everyday blouses in the Fifties and early Sixties! This cute little number has very pretty machine embroidery all down the front.
It’s a waist-length style, with vents at the hem on both sides. Pearlized buttons with stems and cute short sleeves. There was a label, though it’s missing, but as is often seen in true vintage items of quality, some of the details have still been done by hand.
Plus, in perfect condition! I’ll really enjoy this one!!!!!!!!!!
