It’s All In The Details – 1940’s Vintage Dress

June 2, 2013 by suzanne carillo

Isn't this dress F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S?

1940s dress details

Aren't the details unique? When I saw it on the hanger I thought it was overwhelming but when I put it on I was sold. 

1940s vintage dress

I picked it up last year when we went to a vintage fashion show in Elora by Sweet Trash. There was a promotion during the fashion show (which was so much fun!) and when I saw this dress was on sale and fit me I wasn't able to say no.

Originally it was down halfway between my knees and ankles in length but I had it taken up.  I don't try to take up circle skirts on my own ever again anymore. Nightmare!  This length is much more wearable for me.

I know the shoes aren't what you would normally see me in but this is what I will be wearing next week in France so I'm keeping it real. I don't walk for hours on end in cute heels like this…

Shoe

But I will pose for one shot on the blog in them : )
