Here’s one way to look REGAL, even in a plain dress.

TRUE VINTAGE FULL-LENGTH CRINOLINE HALF-SLIP FROM THE 1950S Even if you don’t have a Fifties dress to wear with it, put it under any long dress with a full-enough skirt and it becomes a GOWN.  Just perfect to make an entrance at a holiday party. . . .

The full length, high-waist elastic slimming panel and back zipper are all unique. Crinoline netting is sandwiched between two layers of fabric for comfort and a smooth line.

Foundation garments were so important in the past – usually more issues to be considered than even now, like garters and boning.  Their design was a real art and a science.  There are companies now which make “foundation garments” and hosiery in the old style, if you want them.  I ran into one in Australia!

For the dress shown yesterday, a short slip would be a necessity. I’m so happy to have a variety of lengths in these gorgeous 1950’s beauties – it’s such a shame to shorten a lovely piece like these, though some were specially made to allow you to do that without ruining the design.

Tomorrow we’ll start a series with my main shoe collection, dresses you haven’t seen yet, jewelry and this and that, and that and that and . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
