I LOVE the high-fashion party dresses from this era! Unlike some of the other eras I like, I can actually find these at many vintage shops in my hometown, Chicago. These dresses are instantly flattering and feminine, and some can still have a very modern feel to them that I like. To see more of these dresses go to Dorothea's Closet Vintage. It's a terrific site! One of my absolute favorites.
