Sometimes, oftentimes, one’s wardrobe can benefit from some restrained elegance and items that provide building blocks. That’s why the Little black dress has become a staple. Ours is a Lovely black dress, as 40s style is more covered than the standard LBD and more reliable.
A LBD will take you from work to family dinners to a fancy BBQ to an evening burning up the dance floor. Wear with more black for sleek style…A bright cardigan and a creative brooch for everyday smart. Make it modern with huge bright earrings. Use pearls for subtle elegance when you need to be reserved (Queen Victoria established pearls as mourning jewellery, while Aubrey Hepburn wore them in a louder fashion for legendary class)
How about a black and white theme or a touch of animal print
Our Mary vintage style dress recreates the late 30s to early 1940s with its gathered shoulders, puff sleeves and fitted waist. It has a great bust enhancing look, while displaying very little cleavage.
Other features include:
- A discrete invisible zip down the centre back - Yes, we know it isn't too vintage that way, but girls were getting stuck after having their hair done when we had only a side zip.
- Shoulder pads for authenticity (easily removed by snipping the stitching if you so desired)
- A-line skirt to skim the hips and tummy
- Machine Washable
- Very little ironing!
- 51% Viscose, 47% Polyester and 2% Elastane mix
- Made in the UK
