    Jaw dropping gowns from misc magazines from the 50's. I can not picture a event in our time where a gown like these would be worn other then the Oscars or the Met Ball. I guess maybe it was the same then? All I know is that as soon as a Time Machine is available to the public I will be the bell of the ball:) And I am going to claim my rights to the blue gown in the last pic, so hands off girls!

      Hi vintagemad,

      Hope you're well. I'm an MA Fashion Curation student in London currently doing a project on collectors and how they use online resources. I wondered if you would be able to spare some time to answer a brief questionnaire? My email is fiamckay82@yahoo.co.uk if you'd like to get in touch directly.

      All the best and look forward to hearing from you,
      Fiona
