I went to the Textile Museum on tried on this dress...

It's a 1920s dream! I haven't done my hair and have no make up, and my boobs are in the wrong place since I'm wearing a modern bra. But still!



I am also wearing wool tights and dark blue patent oxford shoes, so they are not in the photo. This was not something that I planned, I just got the opportunity to try it on.

 

I wrote more about the visit here, and have some photos of vintage sewing machines.

I also bought fabric, but it's too dark to take any good photos now.

Lovely! I can't beleive they let you try something on! Is it vintage or "modern vintage?"

That's a very pretty dress, and it looks really good on you. I love how 1920s fashion look so deceptively simple and boxy but it has just the right amount of shaping here and there to make it interesting.
Also; the museum sounds reaaaaaally nice, I loved the vintage overlock
