THE ORIGINS OF A DRESS
Thursday, February 1, 2018
70's WHITE GOWN
White gown became a popular option in 1840, after the marriage of Queen Victoria to Albert of Saxe-Coburg, when Victoria wore a white gown trimmed with Honiton lace. Illustrations of the wedding were widely published, and many brides opted for white in accordance with the Queen's choice.
But today you don't have to think about a wedding dress if you wear a long and white dress. It gives more light than a black dress, it's less ordinary and more dramatic than black one, and at the first sight skin acquires freshness.
Many stars have chosen to wear white gowns for photo shoots, red carpet and important events.
Have a look to the gallery below:

MY EX BABY DOLL
This skirt was actually a lace and nylon 60's babydoll that I cut, I took off one flounce, and I curled at the waist with a smocking stitch.
Questa gonna in realtà era un baby doll in pizzo e nylon degli anni '60 che ho tagliato, ho levato una balza, e lo arricciata in vita con un punto smock.

SIXTIES DRESS AND SHOES
During the sixties, for the first time, London, not Paris, was the center of the fashion world.
Mary Quant, Twiggy and Jean Shrimpton, the Swinging London influenced the catwalks of the time. Bright, swirling colors, news materials such as plastics and shiny metallic fabrics, short skirts, optical pattern and "A line" for dresses and coat. A young fashion that creates a break with the sober and sophisticated clothes worn by "the ladies" of the 50's.
Negli anni '60, per la prima volta è Londra e non Parigi a dettare le regole della moda.
Mary Quant, Twiggy e Jean Shrimpton, la Swinging London influenzano le passerelle dell'epoca.
Colori brillanti e vivaci, nuovi materiali come plastica e tessuti metallici, gonne cortissime. disegni optical e linee a trapezio per gli abiti e capispalla. Una moda giovane che crea una rottura con gli abiti sobri e sofisticati indossati dalle "lady" degli anni '50.
