Vintage "Bella Hess" Clothing Catalog Scans: Spotlight on 1957 Winter Coats

Labels:

Vintage Scans

"Shine or Shower, you'll be right in fashion in our all weather wonders."

I absolutely love old catalog copy! So, for a change of pace, and perhaps to inspire some of you vintage sellers who write descriptions for your vintage wares, here are snippets from this vintage catalog scan.

SNAPPY STRIPED ACCENTS
"Glamor raincoat, hat and umbrella will shine fashionably in any kind of weather. Snappy combination of rich gabadine and candy-striped taffeta..."

BACK-INTEREST COAT
"In all kinds of weather, the year round, you'll love wearing this water-repellent cotton tweed ensemble that's really in fashion! Back bowed-and-pleated coast is so stunning with its pointed collar, push up sleeves, vertical welt pockets."

MIRACLE MILIUM LINING
"All-purpose water-repellent corduroy companions to wear in any weather... any time of day! Boxy coat has unusual Empire-back tab detail, Puritan-type collar, adjustable turnback cuffs, vertical welt pockets. Milium-insulated rayon-and-acetate lining gives warmth without weight."

15 Dainty + Pretty Vintage Blouses from the 1920s That I Covet

Vintage Scans

Whenever I am at an antique shop, a vintage boutique, or even the local flea markets, I always hunt for pretty little blouses from the 1920s. They are rare and beautiful finds. I find them to be so sweet and romantic, ethereal even. If you don't want to appear too costume-y wearing a blouse from the 20s, just pair one of these gauzy pretties with skinny jeans and stilletos or ballet flats. (I usually prefer the latter)
