I've always thought these outfits, creatively made from tablecloths, were incredibly adorable and a wonderful example of wartime frugality. So, imagine my delight when I found this lovely set on good 'ol eBay, made from the cutest Mexican novelty print tablecloth:
It arrived today and fits perfectly; I am oh so excited to wear it for a photoshoot!
That is amazingly cute.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see that! Love it and may have to find one for me!
ReplyDeleteWait. Is that vintage? Or is it repurposed? Either way it is adorable! Cant wait to see the photos.

ReplyDeleteThanks all! It a 40s bathing suit; I came across it by chance and snapped it up ;-)
ReplyDeleteWell played it's delightful!
ReplyDeletewhat an unbelievable find; if I may say, you definitely seem like someone who could make a sack (or in this case a tablecloth) look amazing. ;)
ReplyDeleteDear Amanda,
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you started this blog because I always enjoyed your style and your work as a model. I also loved to read what you had to say on Fedoraa Lounge back in 2006. Your advice on make up and other beauty tricks, stockings, girdles and so on really helped me to develop my own vitage style.
Looking forward to reading!
Maria
Thank you LandGirl ;-)
