Megan Draper's Hat Very Similar To Mine!

   The actress that plays Megan Draper is wearing a summer hat almost like mine. Both hats are floppy,  but mine has a ribbon and a small flat  bow. I love when I find  Mad Men costumes or props similar to theirs in my personal collection, now that's cool beans. Wish I had her fruit beach dress. I wonder who made that? My search continues....

 This dress is at my Etsy shop right now. I have not listed this summer hat yet. https://www.etsy.com/listing/190765248/vintage-60s-tulip-print-sheath-dress-m?

My Marilyn Monroe inspired dress!

                                                 .



And the one and only Marilyn in her fabulous Dior backless gown, wow!







 Marilyn Monroe by Bert Stern from 1962. The back of this dress plunges in the back like mine, so now I can pin point the year  it was made from the late 50s to early 60s. Mine has a different cut and a lot tighter more of a wiggle dress compared to her Dior gown. It  has a  large satin bow with a plunging back or backless similar to hers, so glamourous.I think she would have loved to wear a dress like this, definitely her style.


    Here's Dree Hemingway in a reproduction of Monroe's 1962 Dior black gown. It's not the same dress,but such an inspiration very pretty indeed.
