22.01.2022 Putting up three beautiful 1960's original French maxi dresses today and tomorrow; they're all very lovely in their own way!

13.01.2022 VINTAGE INDIAN ELEPHANT SKIRT ALERT; BEST FIT ON A SIZE 10 AND WILL FIT UP TO A 12. THE WAIST WILL PULL INTO WHATEVER YOUR FAVE FIT IS; WILL SIT ON THE WAIST OR LOWER. SHE'S OUR SAMARA SKIRT, BEAUTIFUL AND PURE COTTON. ISN'T SHE STUNNING? PERFECT FOR SUMMER AND SPRING. EASY TO WEAR; AND GORGEOUSLY CUT. I'll post a pic of her full length in a moment. She's a beautiful full sweep; full circle; (3/4 circle at the very least) pure cotton with an incredible Elephant landscape dessert print. I love her! She reminds me a little too of the vintage Desert Designs label my mother wore when I was a child. She's a glorious piece for summer is in mint condition and $290 at Dolly Up. Free express post and $25 flat rate international. Available now!

12.01.2022 IF YOU'RE FEELING BLUE: OUR NICOLA DRESS; WE HAVE TWO LEFT. ONE IN A SIZE 8 AND ONE IN A SIZE 10, THE LAST TWO IN THIS PRINT. SO BEAUTIFUL. Everyone who tries one on tends to buy one and most come back for seconds and thirds and occasionally fourths! So that's a fairly good indication of their utter wearability and perfect cut. They are so very flattering and feel incredible on your skin. This is the dress is a beautiful soft sky blue and deep bottle green liberty print f...loral. They're made of incredibly soft cotton rayon and are gently elasticated at the waist with a gentle flutter sleeve and a beautiful flowy skirt; elegant and romantic all at once. The cut is glorious and she also has pockets. It would be hard to be get a more practical, more feminine cut in a piece which in my book is always a winning combo. This beauty is $280; unique and only the one in this print left. Free express postage and $25 flat rate international. See more

10.01.2022 DOLLY'S EDIT; A BEAUTIFUL ORIGINAL 1960'S GOWN FROM MY OWN COLLECTION; SO SPECIAL OUR "PUCCI-ESQUE" RAYA GOWN; PROMPTLY SOLD AT DOLLY FIRST THING. SHE'S BEST FIT ON A MODERN 8 TO SMALL 10. SUCH AN INCREDIBLE GOWN. EVERYTHING ABOUT HER IT UTTER PERFECTION. I'VE ACCRUED A VERY AMAZING COLLECTION IN THE LAST 20 YEARS....COLLECTED FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD AND RAYA HAS BEEN PART OF THAT. I've never worn it but sometimes I've just kept things because they are rare, unique and be...autiful. This dress has a stellar Pucci quality that always appealed to me and her cut is superb. She's waisted with a double layer flutter sleeve, made of a satine, medium weight beautiful fabric. She sits on amazingly and has two side ties that pull into the sides to tie in to your desired fit. She has so much personality. I have loved her a long time; but it's time for her to be worn and appreciated by someone new. She's so beautiful and sleek; tres Pucci in modern terms. See more

10.01.2022 THAT TIME 1980 DID 1944 TO PERFECTION. WHAT A STUNNING LINEN SUNDRESS; ALL UNDERSTATED 40's INSPIRED PERFECTION. OUR AMELIA IS LOVELY; SHE'S BEST FIT ON A MODERN SIZE 12. Measurements supplied below. She comes with her original belt and's detailed with cream piping and buttons up with functional buttons. Everything about her is divine. She's so lovely, the perfect summer shirt dress. She feels amazing and screams quality in both the fabric and the cut. She's lined throu...gh the skirt; a late 1970's dress based on 1940's style ideals. I love the flipped fabric on her belt and the flirty hem line that ripples femininely is so lovely. It really works and enables you to tie the waist belt to which ever fit you think works best for you. She really is the perfect classic summer day dress; pure cotton linen. I abhor nothing more than vintage purveyors who mercilessly lop off sleeves and hemlines rendering the dresses only suitable for wear by 14 year old girls!! This length keeps it cool and classy. She's in MINT, freshly dry cleaned condition and $220 at Dolly Up. She has SCANLAN THEODORE kinda vibe that I'm sure you will love and quite luxurious in the flesh, you won't be disappointed! FREE EXPRESS POSTAGE AUS WIDE and $25 FLAT RATE INTERNATIONAL. Measurements LAYING FLAT ONE WAY ARE: B: 21 " W:18 " H: 23" Total length 43": with a deep hem. She has a zip that fastens at the size also. See more

THE JEANS ARE EPIC!!! THE QUALITY IS LUXE ALL THE WAY, THEY ARE A MEDIUM WEIGHT DENIM, SIT MORE LIKE A PANT AND THE ZIPS IN THE ANKLES ARE NEXT LEVEL FABULOUS. THEY ARE TRUE VINTAGE 80'S BUT I WOULD... GUESS THE INSPO BEHIND ISABEL MARANT'S LATEST COLLECTIONS. IN CUT, DESIGN AND QUALITY THEY WOULD EASILY RIVAL A PAIR OF MARANT'S $1400 JEANS. THEY ARE SO PERFECT, IN MINT CONDITION AND $340 AT DOLLY. THEY PAIR PERFECTLY WITH OUR CROPPED KNITS.
