Zoe wearing Stella's dress, nearly 50 years later... |
Zoe is the best person to talk about these amazing vintage dresses she owns from her beloved mother. Here is what she says about this gorgeous dress:
"I felt so pretty and slim trying on this lovely Blanes of London evening
dress. My little girl loved it when she saw me in it because of the
magical sparkle in the fabric, the soft angora like collar decorated
with vibrant turquoise jewels and the princess quality of the swirly
skirt. I have photos of my fun loving Mummy laughing and enjoying life
in this very dress and when I held my daughter close to me whilst
wearing it I knew Mummy was there too. I so wish she could meet her name
sake little Stella. They would have loved each other. I do feel that
through this collection of my Mothers dresses Stella will get to know
her Grandmother very well!"
