Together or separately, these are two smart-looking pieces.   Below, the crepe-like dress can be worn on its own as a great wardrobe basic.  The ticker sized spaghetti straps are comfortable and the high-waist is very flattering.  At the back, there is a slight dip making the dress a bit more sensual than the same-old basic dress.  It is also cut to hug curves and is great at accentuating various assets.

Very quickly, glamour can be added to this look by simply putting on the expertly crafted beaded top.  Shinny and sensual, it draws the eye with its mix of blues, violets, and silver.  The beading is very dense and of very high quality (the top has some physical weight to it)  and could be worn on its own.

Both pieces are lovely extremely well crafted.   Would be great for attending a formal dinner or fund raising event where the wearer would like some shine, without showing too much skin directly.

Its always a pleasure having Jill Barber in the store.  Its especially grand that she made the time for a visit during the launch of her new CD.  Check out this great clip from Etalk as Jill tries out a variety of vintage look a la some of history’s most talented songstresses.

This vintage designer dress has lovely details making it a perfect little black dress with sophistication.  The front of the bodice has a lovely drape and creates great lines with the soft jersey fabric construction.  Each of the main lines are accented with rhinestone chevrons that are mounted on a plastic backing( rather than just a fabric ribbon).  The back has a plunging line with saucy mesh peak-a-boo openings at the waist.  Metal zipper at the back.  For more details and images, take a look at this piece in our online boutique.

Splashy and fun, this cocktail dress is accented with black sequins and beads that are accented in a geometric pattern on the skirt, neckline and at the back.  The fit is made to be a bit looser on the body making it perfect for warmer weather.  The sleeveless design also lends the dress to be perfect for attending an summer evening event outdoors, maybe even an outdoor wedding.  This dress is in perfect condition and made from a crepe-like fabric, it travels well too.

This dress is a perfect example of late 1960s evening wear glamour.  The brocade used is a beautiful white gold, with a showstopping bodice.  The shimmer is created with a combination of sequin and beads.

The almost pecock-feather design in sequin is the star of this dress. Not to be outdone though, is the fine black beaded detailing in a starburst pattern from the hip to hem of the skirt.  At the bottom of the hem as well as the neckline there are further heavy beaded details forming a boarder at the edges.  All of this is backed on a black chiffon providing a sort of peek-a-boo look at the front and back.

This dress has a very black tie look for someone looking for an understated yet classy look. It has a straight pleated skirt and the detailed neck and front frees the need for lots of extra assesories.

There has always been a place in my heart for Ms. Fanny Brice, the Zigfield Girl who made it big.  The movie Funny Girl inspired by her life was the first great hit in 1968 starting Barbra Streisand.  In addition to being an entertaining film to watch it has 40s inspired 60s fashions.  Every scene showcases a drool-inducing new piece of vintage glamor.  From hats and gloves, to the over the top Chorus Girl number outfits it is a time capsule and a great example of how clothes can make a movie.

If you are a lover of clothes, vintage or otherwise Funny Girl is a movie that you have to see (or see again).
