Striped 40's Dress & Bow Tie

 

  

 I just bought this vintage dress at a little boutique in Portsmouth, NH called The Odd Showroom. I was labeled as a 50's dress, but upon research it turned out to be from 1940 or 1941. The tag inside said it was from the F.O.G.A. {The Fashion Originators Guild of America} If you have a vintage dress from the F.O.G.A., you can identify the year by the tag here. This dress fit perfectly and it looks great with my vintage bow tie. Also it was a $10 steal!

P.S. Thinking of getting another short hair cut very soon - Elizabeth Taylor-esque, perhaps?
