June
Hit with the heatwave, June has given us a dose of what we have all been craving since spring began.
With a more hopeful outlook on what this summer might have in store, we bring you a collection to suit all your joyous upcoming occasions. With holidays on the horizon; Proms, Parties and Picnics ahead, why not discover than Vintage never fails to fit the bill!
A focus for our June hang is what we view as a woman’s utilitarian staple: The 1940s Tea Dress.
Versatile, straightforward, light and easy. Often soft flowing silk with patterns from busy, vibrant florals to novelty motifs, illustrated in unique and jolly fashion. With additions in Irish linen and colourful cotton, our dresses never disappoint. Just like your favourite pair of jeans, a tea dress becomes an irreplaceable piece in your wardrobe you can’t live a season without!
They take you from morning to evening with sun hats and sandals swapped for a gold chain waist cinching belt and stilettos.
Made in the softest, rustling silks they roll up small enough for carry on tote bag travel for weekends in Europe or surprise trips further abroad. Ascot to Glastonbury, their transformational styling can takes on a whole new meaning with wellington boots and an oversized cashmere, versus a fabulous fascinator and a jockey in arm!
Slipped over a bikini, you can dust off the sand and look chic at dinner and look like Grace Kelly with no effort at all. The dress does all the work!
But our selection doesn’t stop there! With more glamorous celebrations on the horizon we have a heavenly offering of summer gowns. Rare 1930s bias cut chiffons in ripe strawberry florals, deep midnight patterns and abstract rainbows. In candy pink we have an organza kaftan with good thread embroidery, as well as early dressing robes with covered buttons and endlessly cascading trains.
For proms and balls we have an explosion of raspberry net from the 1960s, crying out for a night to twirl on the dance floor again. Our evening dresses are fit for all celebrations.
Brides to be will not be disappointed; with white, ivory and cream Vintage wedding dresses at a fraction of the cost of something new. Adorn your bridesmaids in a unique selection of 1930s floor length gowns for that unforgettable day.
