The Twiggy Dress

I have always been a fan of vintage fashion and the 1960s in particular, if I had a time machine I would love to travel back in time to that era but luckly for me there are so many brands bringing this kind of fashion back I don't have to! So when London fashion brand Trollied Dolly asked if I wanted to review one of their pieces from their collection I said yes as quick as you can say 1960s! The dress I chose is called "The Twiggy Dress" of course inspired by the 60s icon - Twiggy who made the mini and shift dress ever so popular.

The dress initially jumped out at me because of the bright red colour but if you look at the dress more closely it has such beautiful detailing including black scalloped edges and a leaf pattern. The brand who designed this retro dress Trollied Dolly don't just take their inspiration from the 60s they also design unique and fun pieces from the 50s right through to the 70s. Starting out in London’s Spitalfields Market, they have lots of other designs in their online shop all made of hand-designed fabrics. I love the fact only so many of each product are made which means you can walk down the street and hopefully not see someone in the same outfit!







When it came to styling the twiggy dress black was an obvious colour so I combined my little black fluffy scarf (TK Maxx) and ankle boots (New Look) but I had also recently purchased this navy long jacket from H&M which added sophistication to the look.
