Not directly fashion, but a great read regardless. These people were inspirations for Mad Men’s Don & Peggy.

"What is sad for women of my generation is that they weren’t supposed to work if they had families. What were they going to do when the children are grown - watch the raindrops coming down the window pane?"
Jacqueline Kennedy

Bridget Bardot in the 1968 film “Shalako”, also starring Sean Connery. Very fashionable film. And look, she’s actually wearing jeans! These photos are so timeless, they wouldn’t be out of place in 2010 Vogue.

1) my neon green geometric patterned mod dress. the fit is slightly big on me, but it’s in excellent condition. the buyer said it was deadstock.

Bust: 38”
Waist: 33”
Hip: 41”
Length (from top to bottom hem): 38”

2) blue plaid sheath-like dress most likely for the early 60s. this was deadstock also. the bust is slightly too big on this dress, but it’s a great example of a casual dress during the time period.

A pair of early 60s dior pumps & matching clutch. These were given to me by my mom’s friend. They belonged to her stylish grandmother. She would wear these shoes everywhere, including garden parties.
