While I’m not actively seeking a Prince Charming at the moment, I do know that, unlike most princesses who dream of something with 4 C’s in a Tiffany ring box, I’ll know I’ve met my soulmate when he understands I’m more interested in these 4 C’s: Fortuny, Worth, Vionnet and Balenciaga (C standing for couturier, of course).

VPOD: Vintage 1920s Silk Flapper Dress

VPOD: Vintage 1920s Art Deco Beaded Evening Gown

vintage 1920s beaded dress
