1960's and 70's Mini Dresses

Little mini length, holiday inspired cocktail dresses, from the 1960's and 70's . . .




Here is a very darling cocktail dress from the late 1960's or early 70's that I found, and that I really love.
It has pretty frothy sleeves and it is in a really lovely shade of minty green, mixed with ivory.

shocking pink

Schiaparelli's shoe-hat, 1936 gloves with snakeskin fingernails, 1950's sunglasses

Elsa Schiaparelli, Coco Chanel's arch nemisis, was the fashion surrealist darling of the 1930's.
I love her amazing designs, from her outrageous Daliesque accessories, to her fanciful gowns.



1938 shocking pink and black gown, 1936 suit dress with nutshell buttons, 1937 lobster ball gown



Here's a party dress from the 1980's(below), in the store this week, that is in the same color
and has a similar neckline of Schiaparelli's Shocking Pink gown seen above.
