Fringe Flapper Dresses
Continue the retro theme for evening events with a flattering flapper dress. 1920’s vintage-inspired fashion offers glitz and glamour with beaded and fringed dresses. You can also channel the 20’s Gatsby theme into your wedding reception party. Unique styles from the twenties include intricate decorative beading, sequins and sleek silhouettes. Art deco designs also add to their appeal along with drop waists and fringing for a maximum swish.
Ornate Beaded Evening Gowns
Make a true style statement with a longer length evening gown adorned with embellishments galore. The ornately decorated fabric lends itself to a bygone era where more was definitely more! Shimmering eveningwear radiates boho elegance with stunning metallic tones in silver and gold. So opt for a sweeping Grecian style to your next black-tie event or a one-shoulder gown with a dramatic side split. Look out for flattering designs too such as soft draping, waist ruching and elegant necklines.
Vintage Cocktail Party Dresses
For a trendy knee-length frock, the short cocktail dress is the answer. In addition to its party appeal, it offers a choice of retro styles too from flapper, swing, pencil, fit and flare and wiggle dresses. Find your favourite vintage dress and step back in time to an era that inspires you most. No matter what timeline grabs your style, you’re are sure to feel fabulous. Short party dresses are made for dancing and capture the mood of the 1920s, 1930s,1940s, 1950s and 1960s.
Classic Tea Dresses
The classic 40’s and 50’s tea dress has had a modern makeover with added frills, florals and fun-loving prints. Perfect for summer weddings, garden parties, wedding guest and modern Mother of the Bride. Moving away from the traditional wedding attire opens the way for plenty of vintage vibes. So whether you opt for printed, polka-dot or plain, there’s something for everyone. More importantly below the knee tea dresses are so versatile and make great bridesmaid dresses too. We love the dainty cap sleeves, cute buttons, belts and collars just add pearls to finish the retro look.
