oh man. let's cut straight to it: how cool are these 1940's rayon shorts with their san francisco novelty print??? it's like history! on yer arse! behold these locale-themed fabrics:
this one concerns alaska's admission to the states in 1959

something to do with kansas... if anyone knows what this one commemorates, let me know! or maybe it's sheer state pride.


to foreign lands: venice!

and of course paris! here we have a border print that would have made a great skirt or even cafe curtains... so you can pretend you're in france when you're at home eating dinner in the suburbs...

"...so you can pretend you're in France when you're at home eating dinner in the suburbs." How did you know that is what I do? ;-D
ReplyDeleteHoly guacamole! I have the first print in the form of a romper that has these amazing red wooden buttons down the back! I LOVE it when you find the same fabrications of vintage clothing!!!
