Daily eBay – 1950s little black wiggle dress
February 4, 2009 by greenmystyle
Thank Kate Winslet in Revolutionary Road for my current passion for the wiggle dress. Granted, the costume designer on the movie is probably thanking Roland Mouret for the Galaxy dress, but it’s Kate that caused my love rush.
Today’s Daily eBay is an original 1950s little black wiggle dress, the wiggle born from necessity in that most pencilish of pencil skirts. It’s all about hips and bottoms in a wiggle dress, oh yes.
Unless you want to look a little tarty, keep the top half quite demure and the bottom half ultra curvy. This dress gets it just right. (For more vintage fashion style tips you really must visit QueenOfVintage.com, our sister glossy).
It’s a size M/L, suggested to be a 14. These dresses have to fit well to really look great, and curvy girls look especially stunning in them. They’re quite simple to alter too, so if the measurements stump you a little, you could always run it along to a local dressmaker.
It’s a good price; a Buy It Now £16, and located in France, so not too terrible on the air-miles.
