1950's & *Item of the week*

Did you know that in the 1950's the style for woman was what we call "paper doll silhouette"? How unique is that! The "House Wife" was a great look! Today we have the stepford wives movie, deperate housewives,  and even the realhousewives (NJ, DC, OC, Atlanta!)- so who says that this style isn't back and here to stay???

Being a modern day woman- we try hard to not look like a "stepford wife" or the generalized wife look. We have held ourselves to a level of independence which includes fitted "power" clothing- even if in the kitchen. We have so much freedom to express our indiviuality! Women can look hippie chic (My Favorite), preppy, modern, futureistic, rock and roll, polished or just plain YOU!

So does this mean that as a modern day woman in the 21st century that we need to let go on the "wife chic" of the 50's? Heck no. Now we can spice it up the paper doll silhouette with leather pumps, grommetted belts and splashes of bright color. We now can take the "wife dressing" and bring this look into the 21st century! 2010 is the year for vintage- with a modern twist.

Anne Fogarty had class & style and now we can bring this classic look back. No matter what figure you have- you can accent your narrow waste or your thin legs with the this full skirt look. You can make it evening wear or day wear.

Did you know that in the 1950's only 3 million americans had a tv set? By 1954 HALF of the American population had televsion sets. 1950's was a time for fads- that STUCK!

Take a look at some interesting fashion facts of the 50's!

Please take a second to look at our unique item for sale on ebay! 50's- vintage- Anne Fogarty Dress!

ITEM OF THE WEEK- Anne Fogarty VINTAGE DRESS!

Rare find by Pennsylvania Native Anne Fogarty.

ANNE FOGARTY
(1919-1980) Anne Fogarty started her design career in 1948 working for Youth Guild. In 1950, she went to work for Margot, Inc. Her dresses commonly had fitted bodices and full skirts with crinolines, but after 1956, her look narrowed somewhat, with longer, straighter skirts. Fogarty began doing designs exclusively for Saks Fifth Avenue in 1957. In 1959 she wrote a book, Wife Dressing, in which she gave advice on how to dress to please a man.

In 1962 Fogarty opened her own design house, Anne Fogarty, Inc. She expanded her lines to include sportswear and ensembles, but she was still best known for her dresses. In the 1960s, the Empire style of dress was a Fogarty favorite.



In the mid 1960s, Fogarty introduced two new lines, A.F. Boutique and Collector’s Items by Anne Fogarty. Her Clothes Circuit division was designed in part by Adrienne Steckling, in 1971-72. Anne Fogarty Inc. closed in 1974.



After her retirement, Fogarty continued to do free-lance design work. Her last collection was for Shariella Fashion in 1980.




Absolutely amazing estate find! Navy Blue silk taffeta ANNE FOGARTY cocktail dress in pristine condition, looks like it was never even worn!




This beauty is a deep navy blue with a steel zipper up the back and the original black belt. The buckle on the belt is textured, not sure if it was intended that way of if it has become like that over time.



Stunning high collared neckline with hook and eye closures in the back and a big bow on the front. Very flattering bustline. Nipped waist and very full pleated skirt.



Although this dress is a deep navy I have taken some pictured with different lighting which makes the dress look like a brighter blue, this is only done to better show detail...the color is a deep navy.



This dress is a size small or extra small. Please use the following measurements done with the dress zippered and laying flat to determine proper fit:



Shoulder to shoulder: 14.5"



Underarm to underarm: 17.5"



Waist: 11.5"



3/4" sleeve length: 22"



Overall length: 42"



Dress is pictured with crinoline which is not included.
