I wonder if by spiral cups they mean Trapunto stitching or more of a bullet bra shape? I’m not sure by looking at the photo.

SIL Royal Court Over Bust Corset
|
For Valentine’s Day, I love this Royal Court Over Bust Corset for many reasons. Inspired from the Victorian era, its perfect shape fits and flatters all body types. It is accented with black vertical piecing for a sexy slimming effect. Also, it is constructed and designed in usual SIL elegance so you can comfortably wear it out as a top as well as wear it indoors.
I’ve made a Youtube channel where I can post video versions of my posts here. It’s just much easier to keep up with my posts that way! If you don’t want to follow the blog, please follow my youtube channel! I’ve made one video so far, and plan to make them once every week. They’re short and sweet!
For all you rockabilly chickies and vintage goths out there, Gorey Details has some great stuff on sale. I was browsing the site for cute and spooky office decor and they do have a pinups and vintage section which I lurrrrve.
Post-depression America was in desperate need of a defining iconography that would lift it out of the black and white doldrums, and it came in the form of Gil Elvgren’s Technicolor fantasies of the American dream. His technique — which earned him a reputation as “The Norman Rockwell of cheesecake” — involved photographing models and then painting them into gorgeous hyper-reality, with longer legs, more flamboyant hair and gravity-defying busts, and in the process making them the perfect moral-boosting eye-candy for every homesick private. This big, hardcover, color book collects his complete pin-ups. Erotic, but no nudity. 272 pages, hardcover.
Looks like lots of ladies bought this tiara for their weddings. I don’t blame them, it’s gorgeous! I wore a tiara to my prom (I don’t want to think about how long ago that was…) but it wasn’t as beautiful as the Giselle tiara is!
Jean Harlow Vintage Posters Prints
Jean loved materials like satin and silk which clung to her figure in all the right places then floated and just slinked over the rest.
It’s quite a well known fact that Jean often refused to wear underwear. Her wedding photos to Paul Bern even had to be retouched by the censors as the bright sunlight, flimsy white fabric and lack of under garments caused quite an alarming effect.
*Jean was the original Blonde Bombshell – her appearance in the 1933 movie Bombshell
started the phrase.*Was the idol of women all over America in the 1930s and was also an inspiration to Marilyn Monroe.
*Jean cut the ribbon for the “Blondes Only” room when Max Factor held the grand opening for his Hollywood salon in 1935.
*Jean Harlow’s fashion trademarks included slinky silk dresses and pale colors.
Favored Colours
*White, Champagne and very dusky shades of pink and blue. Sometimes black but Jean didn’t wear dark colors very often as white worked with her pale skin and hair giving her a totally luminous look.
