Stunning Vintage Dresses

Feast your eyes on this stunning collection of vintage couture dresses available at Timeless Vixen Vintage. All I can say is...wow...wow...WOW. I want to frolic, swing and twirl around in the yellow one, white one, ohh all of them! I bet when you slip into one of these amazing dresses you instantly transform into retro-glam gal and land a role in Mad Men. I didn't realize wearing a dress could sound so fun.

Would you wear one of these beauties? If so, where to?

Amanda Nicole said...

Oh, I love the silhouettes! It's very difficult to choose, but I think I would wear the yellow one with little summer gloves and a floppy sun hat, to call on other ladies for tea. In my fantasy land of course.

By the way, I tagged you on my blog!

Happy Monday!

I'm having a hard time picking a favourite here - I was going to say no.1 but if you start looking closely, they're all just as gorgeous... I think I'd choose the black and white one to the right if someone forced me to pick one!
Have a lovely midsummer celebration!

I have no idea, but I'd create a reason to where either one of those first two. I just love the shape you've highlighted here.

These are beautiful!

I never realized how stunning vintage dresses could be. I'm a handmade jewelry artist and I have some necklaces that would just be perfect with these stunner.

Elizabeth said...

I love the clothes from this era, especially those big swinging skirts...with pockets too!

Unknown said...

The white one definitely on a Caribbean vacation (when my tan is primo) and the black on would be fab at a wedding or a night out. Wish this style would be "in" again as it is so flattering to woman's figures.

Jessica said...

I would definitely wear the last 2. And I think I might just wear them, and never leave the house. I would be swooning over them in the mirror for hours and hours... and hours! Maybe even days!

Vintage Jewelry Store said...
