I’ve been feeling in a fashion-y mood lately, especially with the research I’ve been doing for the next production I’m working on. I thought I’d gather a few images of dresses I just think are beautiful for your feasting pleasure:
Wonderful sleeves and voluminous skirt on a Jacques Fath design, 1951. Found here.
Irene Lentz-Gibbons – Silk brocade and chiffon dress, 1958. Found at Coletterie.com in a very interesting article about Irene here.
The most beautiful embroidery on an evening dress by Lanvin, made by Antonio Castillo, 1957. Found in the wonderful V&A online collection here.
Balenciaga Haute Couture-A/W 1967. Found on Pinterest and pinned to my fashion board here. I love the unusual shape and exciting embellished front.
Lovely 1950s Silk Chiffon Beaded dress. Found on an now sold Etsy listing here.
Floor length dresses, while not inherently practical, are marvellously romantic and make me want to swish around in them all day long, possibly through a field in summer…
Love this post!! I would totally wear the last one, the 1950′s Silk Chiffon Beaded dress, for prom. It’s so gorgeous; elegant and unique.
Thanks for sharing these!
Thank you, the last one is beautiful, I can imagine it making anyone feel like they had endless legs!
Definitely. Need it in my closet asap
