Vintage Fashion - Mod Fashions still Rockin'

Sixty five years ago, straight from London, the look was MOD.

It's hard to believe it was half a century ago, as Mod fashion are still as MODern looking today.  Just take a look at Christian Dior Spring 2015 Couture Collection -

And this dress from ASOS -

I love this pic of Emma Robert taken in December last year -

Very reminiscent of Twiggy in this 1960s shot -

Of course you don't have to be stick thin to wear a 60s style shift dress - I love my shift dresses on days where my tummy is not co-operating and I just can't be bothered with the pull it in underwear.

There are lots of vintage mod dresses for sale out there - Etsy is a great place to look - and if you can't find something you like, why not grab a pattern and make your own.

I have this great pattern for sale right now (but there are many more on Etsy) -
