Oct 10th Fashion Parade: Sweater Girl Knits

[The Vintage Merchant]

Sweater Girl Knits

Made popular in the 40s and 50s by actresses like Lana Turner and Jane Russell, sweater girl knits are dressy, feminine styles which look just right for cooler weather.

Whether your style is rockabilly, burlesque, Old Hollywood, or just plain vintage-loving, look for cardigans, pullovers and sweater suits from the VFG.

It's dangerous for me to look at these, because I have a "sweater problem".

Here is one from The Broadway, a department store, that used to be a real fun place to shop.
