Able Grable has released three new frocks --the
Ready Hedy the
Miss Iris Henderson and the
Miss Lola Burns!
The
Ready Hedy is a clever little wrap dress--I'm wearing the sunny yellow eyelet version--that proves glamour can be perfectly practical!
The
Miss Iris Henderson is a fabulous stunner in red, gray and gold plaid satin--just the very frock for all you starlets out there!
The
Miss Lola Burns is the dress to choose when you want to stand out in a crowd--its snappy black and white polka dots and unique "capelet" sleeves are simply divine!
You can't go wrong with an Able Grable design--there's something to suit every occasion and fashion mood--and these three creations are not to be missed!

Doug of Atomic Age Pictures and I decided to do a little something different for our most recent shoot, and came up with a deco-inspired series on the waterfront at Tempe Town Lake. I wore two dresses from Matilda’s Closet—the first is a late 1930s black taffeta evening gown studded with rhinestones, the second a 30s-style reproduction with rhinestone trim—and had my hair done in a modern take of a 30s-style. Since it was quite chilly, I also wore my Able Grable capelet. The finished look was a fun step away from our usual favorite eras!
Last week I had a photo shoot with the amazing Matt Carson, and I had an opportunity to wear the Hawaiian dress I mentioned a few posts back. I had it made from a late 1930s pattern, and asked the seamstress to customize it with peek-a-boo cutouts at the midriff and back. She paired it with a matching bolero and scarf, and I was thrilled with the way it turned out!
