Hi there. I'm looking to buy a dress like the one above in red polka dot for a wedding I am going to in September. Could someone point me in the direction of where Imight be able to buy one or even tell me what style the dress is so that I can try to search for one. Thanks in advance x
Hi Loren93 and welcome to the forums. The dress is a modern reproduction vintage style, inspired by the '40s and '50s and made by "Stop Staring". If you search google you should find what you're looking for. Authentic vintage dresses will have some elements of this dress, eg, fitted style or sweatheart neckline or cap sleeves or keyhole back but will not combine all elements. Good luck - I hope you find what you're looking for.
Loren93, your post has inspired me to write a blog post on the topic of vintage reproduction fashion, you can see it here. Incidentally, the photo you included above is from a two year old blog post by Forever Amber - you can see that here - and so as an old style you will probably have the best success by searching ebay as Stop Staring no longer have any available.
I've got an 80s does 40s polka dot dress in black. Similar, but a different collar than the one pictured. https://www.etsy.com/listing/193578894/vintage-80s-does-40s-black-white-polka?ref=shop_home_feat_2
I have literally just joined up and after reading the first pages, I looked at this one and WOW - I want those cherry shoes!!!!.In fact the only thing I like better than hearts is cherries. Anything with hearts or cherries I want it! ..and of course vintage means zing goes the strings of my heart !..but those shoes....swoon!
Welcome to the VFG Larina - the shoes are by Melissa. If you search "Melissa Cherry Shoes" you will find. Super cute! I love them too.
