Jellybug | Vintage 1950s 1960s white blue polka dot print swing style dress
The story:
These dots are intense! Just 2 colours and it is giving us a only-slightly modern take in the “I Love Lucy” vibe. About 10-years-modern. Winky face.
We’ve paired it with a slim red belt (stylist’s own, not included) which we think really lifts it. Perhaps a brown or yellow belt would swing it in a couple of other cute ways.
Perfect 1950s/1960s swing party kinda dress. Jitterbug!
Pinned?: No. Belted to show how it wears with one.
