50's dresses

Sources: Topshop and So Vintage Patterns

I have been working on a project called "50's 'Summer Loving'". The name probably gives it away, but I have been required to create a 50's style dress in 4 weeks. 2 weeks of research and designing and 2 weeks of construction patterns and sewing it.

These pics are a part of my inspiration, a few traditional old fashioned ones, where I had to focus of the silhouette and the neckline. And as the 50's style dress in very in and on trend at the moment, I have picked a few out, to show that the industry always goes back in time to get inspiration. What comes around goes around.

I actually really like the yellow dress and on the other hand, not really, don't really fancy the lace. Any thought?

Today I chose my final design and next week I'll be making the pattern for it!
