Shop Update: A 1940s duo

1940s silk dress by Emile of New York

So, this duo was supposed to be a trio but I made the very silly mistake of trying on one of the intended listings and decided not to part with it! Still, the two 1940s dresses that have made it to the shop are just beautiful and they have lots of lovely little details that make '40s items of clothing so special.

1960s Flower Power mod shift dress

During last week's shipping hiatus, I managed to take out my needle and thread, get outside in the sunshine and take a heap ton of shop photos. My 'to-list' pile has been growing and growing and it's been great working my way through all the lovely pieces picked up locally and during my past two trips to the U.S. These dresses all made their way into the shop over the past few days, representing a nice variety of decades and styles. There's another shop update in the works for this week - it's going to be a good one for fans of the forties!
