Meet Marilyn

We have a new dress style to show you called Marilyn, ooh isn't she gorgeous?
This one here is made from two-tone purple polyester in a UK size 16. She's perfect for a swinging 1940s evening!
You can buy her from our Etsy shop, or if you want another colour or size, let us know! We'd be happy to oblige!
Ciaou for now!

Our first Etsy sale!

December 22nd 2009 was a great day! We got our first sale from a lovely lady from Washington! She bought a custom-made version of our 'Polly' dress in red.

We still have a ready to wear version of 'Polly' (pictured left) in a UK size 12 available on our Etsy shop.

This style has been a favourite, and received many lovely comments, so it's no wonder it was the first to go!

We look forward to more sales (hopefully) through Etsy in the future, and more conversations with fellow Etsians via the forums.

It truely is an inspirational place, and there is a lot to be learnt from these creative people!

Just starting out!

Forties Frocks first started in June 2009.

My mum and I have always had a passion for 1940's fashion, so why not share it with others?

We started by making a few garments for our daughter/grand-daughter, Hannah to model and show off at East Kirkby Airshow in August 2009.

We were very happy to receive our first order for a custom-made 'Judy' dress.

We hope to attend more events in 2010, and will keep you updated.

You can also keep up to date with Forties Frocks on facebook, twitter, or myspace.

Last but certainly not least, please feel free to take a look at some of our garments at our Etsy shop!
