Cabaret Vintage New Arrival: 1960’s Antique White Satin Dress
Why does the perfect little black dress have to be black? This vintage 1960’s satin dress in a beautiful antique white has a slight shimmer and creates a razor sharp silhouette for a variety of body shapes. The antique white of the fabric is so neutral it goes with just about any occasion so it will give you a lot of wardrobe millage and unique looks by varying hairstyles and accessories. Just like the traditional Little Black Dress, this one can go anywhere and make you look fantastic when you get there.
The simplicity of the design makes this dress timeless and very easy to wear. The shoulders are cut a tad more on an angle than usual which gives it a very flattering broad neckline while being very flattering to women who may be a bit wary of wearing sleeveless.
This dress goes well with the 1950’s Antique White Coat also in stock right now to create a full suited look.

Cabaret Vintage: 1940’s Billie Holiday-style Glamour Dress
This dress recently appeared on a great segment of E!Talk worn by the lovely Jill Barber when she recently visited Cabaret to speak about her newly released cd and her passion for fashion. We’ve received a few inquires about the dress so we thought we would re-feature this great find.
This is an original 1940s original with some of the beautiful touches that were a halmark of that period. A great stage-style dress, the top of the bodice is a beige coloured netting that has been hand detailed with rhinestones. At the side, the flower accent that graces the hip is comprised of silk handcut and assembled petals of various fabric colours. Together they create a stunning bouquet. As the segment on E!Talk points out, this dress is very Billie Holliday in nature with the great styling and cut of the bodice and hem.
