As you know I’ve got a little passion (very little!) for everything that is vintage…so when I saw this photo shooting by Eleonara Sebastiani, a photographer based in Rome who I simply adore, I was nearly in tears and I did not know which dress to choose from.
They all come from Esterita’s shop VintaChic, a little shop in Rome which sells and rents vintage dresses…Esterita has a fashinating story. She started collecting vintage dresses when she was very little – from her mum and aunts – and then when she was older she started travelling and buying dresses in Europe and US. After working for many years as a costumer designer in US, Esterita moved back to Italy where she opened the Vintage Chic. Now she has a collection of hundreds of dress from different eras and type…I’d love to go to visit her shop…I know I could spend days in there trying all sorts of dresses!!!
I love this cocktail dress from the ’50s – pink chiffon with satin inserts and belt.
This is another jewel from the ’50s! and probably my prefered one. I love the colour and the skirt made of a lot of lace and tulle frills.
