New Etsy Listing: Vintage Grecian Goddess/Hostess Gown

Maxine's a vision as she opens her double doors to receive her guests in this lovely, silky-feel hostess dress by Butterfield 8!

This dress is done in regal shades of purple and a sort of violet/lavender, and it features beautiful Grecian-style embroidered trim on the cuffs, bodice, and waist. It's also got a daring, high slit on the left thigh - you might consider a slip or some sort of pettipants if you wear this out to a party, but I'll leave that up to you! :)

It's marked a size small, but please refer to the measurements below to ensure a proper fit:

Shoulder: 15"
Bust: 18" (double)
Waist: 13" (double, NO stretch)
Hip: Free
Sleeve: 23"
Length: 52.5" shoulder to hem

Listing of the day: Earth Angel Cream Maxi-Dress - Size 18 (Modern 14)

https://www.etsy.com/listing/127955503/vtg-70s-dark-cream-angel-dress-wchiffon

 

When I was dressing Maxine in this breathtaking dress, I couldn't help but hum "Earth Angel!"

We present, for your approval, a lovely gown by "Changes." It's dark cream in color, and it features huge chiffon angel sleeves, and a beautiful rosette on the bodice. The trim is dark brown, and it has an empire waistline.

It's marked a vintage size 18. To me, it seems to translate into a modern 14, but please refer to the measurements below to ensure a proper fit:

Shoulder: 16.5"
Bust: 19" (double)
Waist: 17" (double)
Hip: 21" (double)
Sleeve: 23"
Length: 57"

 

This dress is in a rare plus-size, and would look beautiful at a wedding or a party!

 

Price:  $89.99 plus $8.95 US shipping.

Recent Etsy Sales - Sorry for long absence!

 Sorry for being away and neglecting this blog for so long, but I started back to school in January, and since it's algebra, it's required a HUGE effort on my part since math has always been my Achilles heel!  I've recently sold these items on Etsy, and just wanted to share some pics before I delete them (pics take up so much room on my computer, and I like to delete the photos after I've made a sale, because I'm listing a BUNCH of new stuff in the next few days!)

Vintage JIM MORRISON Board Shorts - Size 7 - Modern Small

https://www.etsy.com/listing/90375689/vintage-jim-morrisonthe-doors-hard-rock

Maxine is ready to grab her surfboard and be the talk of the beach today in her stunning, one-of-a-kind JIM MORRISON/THE DOORS Hard Rock Hotel board shorts!! I've never seen anything quite like them - if they fit me, I swear I'd keep them all for myself! They don't have tags so I can't truly call them new old stock, but they don't appear to have ever been worn!

These awesome shorts feature a velcro and drawstring waist, and a coin pocket in back with The Doors logo on it. The shorts are a little lighter than they appear in the pics - they are navy blue on the waistline, and lighter blue and a sky-blue on the rest of them. The back of the shorts read "Hard Rock Hotel Orlando" on the waistband.

Bathing suit not included in this listing, but just convo me if you're interested in it.

The shorts are marked a size 7, but please refer to the measurements below to ensure a proper fit:

Waist: 16.5" (double, could be pulled smaller due to drawstring)
Hip: 18 3/4" (double)
Inseam: 3.5"
Outer length: 11"
Rise: 8 3/4"

Price:  $99.99 plus $5.00 US shipping; $13.95 for international shipping.  Don't miss out on these fabulous shorts - summer's still in full swing!!

Bubblegum Pink Elegant Grecian Goddess Nightgown - Size Medium to Extra-Large

https://www.etsy.com/listing/101204697/vtg-bubblegum-pink-grecian-goddess

Maxine is definitely looking every bit the Grecian goddess today in her lovely, sweeping vintage nightgown!

The nightgown is extremely unique because it's a wraparound style - what you do is put your right arm in the sleeveless hole, your left arm in the long sleeve, wrap around, and button on the right shoulder. It's extremely flattering for all bodies, and the material flows beautifully!

No brand label (I'm suspecting it's Gilead, but don't quote me!) and it's100% nylon. It's a bubblegum pink color, and features gold brocade trim all the way down the front, and on the sleeves. Some of the stitching around the neckline could use repair, but doesn't affect the wear or the beauty of this garment.

Shoulder: 18"
Bust: Open
Waist: Open
Hip: Open
Sleeve: 19.5"
Length: 53" shoulder to hem

Price: $25.99 plus $5.00 US shipping; $13.95 for international shipping.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hand-Painted Ladies Caftan/Hostess Dress - Medium to Small Plus-Size!

Maxine's looking like a goddess today in her vintage, hand-painted caftan! I've never seen a piece quite like this one - it's done in a heavy crinkle-cloth material (maybe a cotton blend?) and it's hand-painted in lovely shades of orange, red, yellow, green and blue, and it's even signed "Judy" at the bottom by the artist!

It doesn't look hand-sewn, but there are no labels in it. Please refer to the measurements below:

Shoulder: Open

Bust: 20" (double)

Waist: 18" (double)

Hip: 22" (double)

Length: 54" shoulder to hem

Sleeve: 22"

Price:  $99.00 plus $8.00 US shipping; $19.95 international shipping.

This caftan will be professionally drycleaned before it gets sent out, unless you request otherwise - it should fit anyone from about a modern medium to a small plus-size, based upon measurements.  Don't let this beauty get away!  Thanks for stopping by!
