40s golden dress with Miss Amanda Lee

And here's another fantastic collaboration with Miss Amanda Lee,


You remember the pink dress in the previous post? Here it is in a garish yellow version. I used a cotton retro floral print. These flowers remind me of cotton flakes, but also stylized chrysanthemums.

You enjoy these photos taken by Doug Monce of Atomic Age Pictures at McCormick-Stillman Park.




Amanda has skillfully combined vintage accessories with handmade white wrap from Arthelia's Attic.





This dress you can find it in the coming days in my Etsy shop, hurry up because it will be a limited edition.
