Wow when you say vintage you mean it, this dress is stunning. I was just out shopping for a graduation dress for my daughter and some of the dresses we saw had a lot of vintage looks to them, my daughter simply loves the older looking dresses too, very feminine, and although she had her heart set on blue when she saw the purple ones that is the color she decided to go with. This dress you showcase here with the gold embellishments is particularly spectacular looking, great attention to detail, must be fun to wear. Great vintage clothing blog, enjoyed.
