Vintage Winter Wear

Vintage fashion is perfect for the cold Winter months which is why it's one of our favourite times of the year. Fabrics from the 1950's and 60's were often heavier and of higher quality which means they can keep you warmer. As many of the dresses had sleeves and longer skirt lengths they are perfect for wearing in colder months and they don't look too summery when worn.

And did I mention the accessories? How better to keep warm and toasty than wearing some gorgeous long gloves, a pretty hat, cardi and a stole? Layers are key to staying stylish during freezing temperatures. Don't be afraid of mixing up patterns, colours and textures. If you aren't sure where to start then take a peak at some of the vintage images below and then our own Dirty Fabulous vintage dresses!
