Retro reproductions of good quality are hard to come by, and even then it can often seem like you’ve only found the same thing everyone else has. For truly rare reproductions, Big Beautiful Barbara Brown is the perfect shop.
With many reproduction vintage dresses from the 1920s – 1950s, there’s something perfect for almost every occasion. Bound to be a big hitter is their range of Marilyn Monroe dresses, beautifully made to copy the icon’s looks. This Some Like It Hot dress is a great copy, made from duchess satin and with a great fit.
This dress costs £65, and like all their others is made to order by hand.
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN,
I FIRST WANT TO COMPLIMENT YOU ON YOUR TALENT
AND STYLE OF VINTAGE REPRODUCTION CLOTHING.
THE ONLY THING I WOULD CHANGE IN YOUR Some Like It Hot Dress IS THAT THE CLEAVAGE NECKLINE AREA OF YOUR DRESS IS NOT A COMPLETE MATCH FOR THE ORIGINAL.
MAYBE IT IS HARD TO DUPLICATE IT IN THE V-SHAPE NECK TO CLEAVAGE AREA,IN THAT WAY LIKE THE ORIGINAL.
BUT THE REST IS RIGHT,AND BEAUTIFUL.THANK YOU FOR
BRINGING BACK A SPECIAL COPY OF THE ORIGINAL.
SINCERELY YOURS,
PETER STOYKOS
