Nautical flavorings are this seasons big trend, so here’s the ultimate Retro Fifties ‘Sailor Girl’ look, from Bettie Page!


There is a lot of different Nautical themed styles around, but I think Bettie Page’s ‘Captain’ Dress is just perfect! Retro Fifties style pencil Dress in Navy Blue with White trim. Double breasted buttons feature, with zip fasten on reverse. Fitted bodice with pencil skirt, center vent to reverse of skirt. Retro Sailor folded collar with white satin trim. Thin white belt to finish it all off. Fantastic Retro Clothing from Bettie Page.

‘Gossip Girl’ fans may recognize this dress as the one worn by Leighton Meister, AKA Blair Waldorf! (She wears a customized shortened length version of this Bettie Page classic dress!)

What’s the only problem with this dress? The ridiculous price! If you like the “premium” version of this dress – then by all means, buy it. You can get it at Atom Retro for $151.46.

But I’ll be ordering a cheaper replica from Chic Star.

Pin-up sailor style with adorable vintage sailor collar, double rows of buttons front, belted waist and pencil skirt accent your curves. Side zip.

Betty Draper’s style is perfectly coiffed and adorned. Mad Men costume designer Janie Bryant describes Betty’s look as “… quite simple but so gorgeous. And you know, you still see women like this. That beautiful classic style from the period that they’ve carried on for their entire lives…”

Betty Draper definitely takes inspiration from Grace Kelly. To get her look just right, you’ll need a petticoat to get the skirt of your dress to flare out full-circle.
