Vintage 1950s New Look Style Shirtdress
About the Item
This classic 1950s shirtdress is a much welcome fresh breath of feminine style. The dress is a great example of Dior's "New Look," which was ushered into fashion in 1947, and really went on to define the 1950s. The fitted bodice has a defined waist, giving way to a full circle skirt. The bateau neckline is so elegant, and the shoulders and bracelet-length sleeves are relaxed in balance with the fitted bodice. There are buttons all the way down, with a hidden hook right at the waistline, which is perfect for wearing with a belt as shown. Fiber contents are not listed but it is a cotton or cotton-blend with a linen hand-feel, having a slub-texture to it. The Vintage Leather Belt pictured is also available.

Vintage 1940s Velvet Two-Piece Dress with Rose Appliqué
Located in New York, NY
A nod to the silhouette of Christian Dior's New Look, this incredible velvet skirt set was made in 1947. It was made by designer Lorraine Budny for the brand Sportwhirl, which was founded in 1945 as a "separates house," specializing in pieces a woman could wear both separately and as a set— quite a novelty at the time, as store-bought dresses at all were not all that readily available. It's made of black velvet with felt rose appliqué and beaded embroidery— it actually presents like a dress, but is really two pieces, and each could absolutely be mixed and worn separately (as was the original design concept). The look is so romantic and reminds me of Old Hollywood film stars (with a dash of Snow White). The Vintage 14k Gold Spinel Heart...
