http://www.gentlemansemporium.com/store/coats.php My favorite period store for Victorian Era attire - the site has the images locked, so I can't post some of them.. phooey! There is a store in the South Bay Area, so I can actually go and try things on! I, oh, so want the brocade tailcoat! I just found an entire trunk full of Life & Look mags that were my late sister's from the 50's & 60's! Talk about a mid-century fashion treasure chest for both women and men! I think I should have a mid-century dinner party so friends can just sit and look at these! Last edited by AtLast; 06-02-2010 at 12:27 AM. Reason: stuff to fix |

I really love the costuming in this movie - especially the men's and George Sand's (Judy Davis's) more masculine clothing. (1840ish Paris)

  Of course to go with the retro look you can't go wrong with the super sexy pin-up swim suits. Just gotta love leopard print and cherries! These are both from Lolita Girl fashions Last edited by tiggs; 06-02-2010 at 04:28 AM. Reason: to add the maker of the suits ;) |

I cut off all my curls about two weeks ago. I cried and cried. I realized as I looked at 1950's fashion and Hollywood pictures that the sophistication level of women who mostly had bobbed hair. Charming, intelligent and magnetic women. So when the last person who saw me (after not seeing me for months) saw my bobbed hair and said, "It is lovely. Very sophisticated." I had to smile.
I forget that sultry women Sophia, Ava, Leslie, Audrey, Eartha and many more women had that look...

I am always looking to add to my small collection of cocktail dresses ...
I have a variety of little black dresses (a few in cerulean blue or deep purples, too) - they range from sleeveless, plunging V-necklines to strapless to long-sleeved (more like 3/4 length sleeves) vintage styled dresses of the late 50s to 60s era dress styles. Here's a classic black cocktail dress that might look nice on me: More than likely though, I'd probably have to make my own pattern and play with the ruffling on the neckline a bit. I'd change the type of fabric too - I like fabrics that feel stetchy-snuggly on my body. And, instead of the waistline (as shown in the photo), I'd probably make it an empire waistline and drop the neckline a bit, so it was more of a "vee" and adjust the ruffling - maybe use chiffon for the ruffling???

Eleanor Parker
I loved her as Baroness Schrader - it's neat to see her other looks too.
