I love big dresses, but there is something about these mid century court gowns that's just absurd! Take a browse down the photos. It amazes me how very narrow this dress is from the side. It reminds me of a paper doll version of an 18th century gown -- wide from the front, disappears from the side!
I will say, though, I love the stomacher and pinked trim across the skirt. Very pretty.
She didn't have any bottom apparently either!
ReplyDeleteHahaha yes! But verrrrry big hips ;)
DeleteSuper narrow! It certainly is silly looking.

Kinda silly for sure. I sometimes look at something like this and wonder if, back then, she was really cool, or a little "fashion victim"?... I know it was a court dress but still...
DeleteLol, that's a great way to put it! I've nominated you for the Liebster Blog Award, Caroline. I'm so pleased to return the blog love, and as far as I can tell/remember, I don't think you've been awarded that one yet.
