1950s Inspired Collection

I love the 1950s era as it epitomizes grace and elegance, while being flamboyant and glitzy, as depicted by movie stars, Audrey Hepburn in breakfast at Tiffany’s and Grace Kelly.  
This fashion era has been the inspiration for my latest creations, which will all be available in my Etsy shop for custom order only.
Dress these up by adding red lipstick, pearls and high heel plus a lot of attitude and you too can be a true 50s diva. 
 
Rhapsody Full Circle Skirt
Rhapsody is a vintage inspired full circle skirt, made in a bright floral fabric with hues of aqua, red and green.
A stunning skirt full of stylish details


This dress is a simple classic, made up in this amazing bold dove grey print. Layer with a frothy petticoat to achieve a fuller look and you are ready to rock and roll


 

This is my favourite, reminiscent of Mad Men. I love the bold print with detail pockets V front and back neckline and contrast belt to extenuate the waist
  




The Forest Green Print skirt and the Merry Go Round skirt is a shorter version of the Rhapsody Skirt.
The Merry go Round was a custom order for a client, she choose the fabric, you may recognize it from my shop (the Merry Go Round Sundress), I must admit I would not have even considered this fabric for the skirt, but I must say it really look great.

I would love to hear what you think, which one is you favourite, which one would you wear.

Your skirts are cute and flirty! You know, I have never heard of a Merry Go Round skirt.

Have a great weekend, Bonnie

Thanks for stopping by my blog. Oh, I LOVE your clothes. I would wear all of these skirts. The fabric prints are divine! I love those 50's and 60's designs they wear on Mad Men. I also love hats.
