Cos It’s Groovy, Baby!

April 23rd, 2015

We hark back to the 60s today with these totally groovy numbers!

The tent dress was first made popular in the 1960s when women’s dresses became much less structured in style than the cinch-waist, much more tailored dresses of the 1950s. Here we have a darling 1960s little tent dress number that features a beautiful paisley design on one side and a contrasting plain mustard colour on the other side. The roll neck collar alternates the design. Such a fab piece! Size: S Bust – 34″, Length of dress: 37″

Fantastic 1960s nautical rope design sheath dress – perfect for work! Size: S Measurements: Bust – 36″, Waist – 26″, Hips – 39″

Groovy 1960s psychedelic print maxi dress with a sexy thigh high slit down the left side of the dress! Size: XXS/ XS Measurements: Bust – 30″, Waist – 24″

Cute 1960s round neck shirt featuring bright and pretty floral and butterfly prints and rolled up sleeves. Size: M Measurements: Bust – 38″, Waist – 38″

The One That Got Away!

February 2nd, 2015

Jaylyn, a lover of all things 60s, grabbed this absolutely fabulous 1960s bold maxi dress when it was just about to go onto the racks. You lucky lucky gal!

She wanted to wear it a little shorter, so we chopped off a few inches and gave her the remnant fabric, which she said she would use to wrap around a handle of a bag to give it some pizazz! 

Love the big bold prints!
