A VINTAGE MEDLEY

 I have some great vintage-style treats for you today, all available on Etsy.  Above:  A sheath of 4 ply crepe with the added lace overlay gives a real 1930's vintage feel. Lightweight and drapey, the crinkled surface of this particular crepe has an incredible swathe and drape effect making it a natural for the bias cut evening gown look. Added to the sides and back are silk organza godets that give off a modified mermaid silhouette.  From Amy-Jo Tatum Bride
 A la 1920s romantic French inspired bridal cap with lace and a sweeping veil.  Available via special order through Twigs and Honey.



 Silk dupion and tea-dyed silk gauze strapless gown. Has a fully boned inside corset lined in silk habotai. The petticoat is a separate crinoline lined in silk with a back insert of Chantilly lace. The gown can be worn with the front sash draped around the neckline or as a tie down the front. The gown can be ordered in dupion, satin or taffeta. Available through Amy-Jo Tatum Bride
 Lampshade hat made of Beige/Cream taffeta w/ burnout prints all over the brim, adorned with a Cream curly rose and Silk leafs.  Available through Arturo Rios
 The Cream Puff!  Made from cream natural ostrich fringe that has been carefully arranged in a perfect puff with a small ostrich tip. Available through Batcakes Couture

The romance (and simplicity) of that lace overlay in the first photo is just lovely! We are big fans of Twigs and Honey, too. :-)
