1920's Purple Drop Waist Dress

Evie from "The House of Elliot" would wear this and so might her sister. This is an unbelievably gorgeous example of a 1920's day dress and in such good strong wearable condition and how fantastic is the shade of purple, deep and rich without being "Gawdy" and the the suttle hint of pink at the neckline makes the colour very easy to wear. The material is that fantastic but extinct very fine grosgrain which hangs or should I say drops with that little bit of weight so it swings gracefully as you move. The dress has a side metal zip under the arm to hip and another small metal one at the back of neck allowing ease of dressing. This dress has some fine and typical examples of the favoured style of that era with the bat wing sleeves ending in a fitted forearm above wrist length emphasing and giving the illusion of a dainty wrist even if you haven't one and this dress has finished this off with beautiful button - cuff detail. The other iconic style feature of this era is the drop-waist and this dress is tailored with this very fashionable 20s drop-waist which is highlighted with the cross-over illusion ending in side buttons and a beautiful metal and diamonte buckle brooch for decoration only. NOTE: All buttons & buckle are original and intact.

1950's Aqua-Marine Green with Gold/Silver Lame Dress

A stunning and quite unusual design for a full skirted Prom style Dress. There is a more casual feel to it than the usual 50's prom dress, I think its the heaviness of the material and the pleated rather than gathered skirt as well the extra cut-away sleeveless arms give it a relaxed and fun feel to it. In the photos I have added a few variation 'cause I think you should have great fun with this dress. I have wrapped a huge Tulle belt around the waist and didn't show it but you could have a great big bow trail to the back , or as most of the photos show it as its great self other than the later photos in which I have a crinoline underskirt to fill it out and Prom it up......Have Fun and Love It.
