I am a lover of all things mid-century and anything inspired by the 1920's on. On this blog you will find beautiful vintage pieces, Anthropologie lovlies, and a few J Crew and Banana Republic staples that need more love.
For reference, I am a petite, curvy gal (5'1", 34B, 27.5, 38) that generally wears size 4 tops, 4-6 dresses, and 6 skirts. However, there will be a wide range of sizes sold on my blog, from 0-10 at least.
I am always open to offers, especially if you are buying more than one item.
To buy, or other inquiries, please contact me at andreacenator at gmail dot com.
Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you find something to give a good home to!
Vintage Handmade 1950's Dress with Petal Sleeves, No Tags but fits like a Size 0-2 BUT PLEASE SEE MEASUREMENTS
It is not easy for me to give this dress up, but my hips will never fit in it. Beautiful fall colors, amazing sleeves, and a unique neckline. In excellent vintage condition, but note that this is a handmade item so some of the stitches are a little wonky looking on the inside. Back zip for snug, wiggle fit.
Shoulders: 16"
Sleeve: 5"
Bust: 34"
Waist: 26"
Hips: 35" (Why I cannot fit in it.)
Skirt Length: 23"
Overall Length: 38"

Vintage Housewife Dress, Fits 0-4 BUT PLEASE SEE MEASUREMENTS
Excellent vintage condition with an adorable collar and snap front. I was so excited when I first found this dress, at Aardvarks vintage shop in San Francisco. Unfortunately for me it has always been a bit too snug up top and deserves to be worn more. May be able to fit size 4's that are smaller up top than me, but likely best suited for a size 2. Side zip.
Chest: 16.5"
Waist: 13"
Hips: Free
SOLD! Emma Domb California Vintage Dress circa 1960's, ***Size Tag 9 Modern Equivalent of 0-2 BUT PLEASE SEE MEASUREMENTS***
$90
Happy, bright, playful 1960's mod mini dress. Canary yellow dress with amazing stand up ruffle collar, sleeveless, pleated waist and matching sash with front bow. Back lapped zipper. Excellent condition. Don't miss out on this one-of-a-kind vintage!
I bought this from an etsy shop years ago and have held onto it because I love it so much, but the bust is simply too small for me.
Emma Domb was a California dressmaking company that was active from 1939 through the 70s. Domb Manufacturing Company was owned by Emma Domb and Lorraine Domb Steinberg. They specialized in wedding, party and prom dresses, and were also known for fancy date ensembles. They were headquartered in San Francisco.
Material: Raw Silk
Shoulders: 16.5"
Chest: 16" (This is likely the most restrictive point as though I can zip it up it is too tight)
Waist: 13.5"
Bodice Length: 11.5"
Hips: 21"
Length: 33.5"
