Throwback Thursday: Sunday Best

Bookmark and Share

After a two week hiatus, Throwback Thursday is finally back! This vintage fashion moment was sent in by Sharon, who is the little tyke on the left. This photograph captures mother and daughter in their Sunday's best.



I love the cut and style of Sharon's mother's day-dress. A far cry from the full as can be skirts of the 1950s, this early 1960s dress has a tailored pencil skirt with clean classic lines. This style of dress has been brought back decade after decade, the cut is so classic that it has become timeless. We are seeing a demand in day dresses of this sort in vintage fashion as well as in contemporary wear.

The dress is beautiful, but my favourite item by far is the mock doctors satchel. Those who know me can attest that I am constantly in search of quality vintage bags in this shape! For those of you who accessorize minimally, as I generally do, unique shapes of clothing and the few accessories worn speak volumes. Also, If you look closely you can see that little Sharon has her own purse to match her adorable outfit as well.

A huge thank you to Sharon for sharing this heart-warming vintage fashion moment which demonstrates the timelessness certain styles can achieve! Look for another fantastic retro fashion moment next Thursday.
