Lisa Perry Collections - Vintage Inspired

I would love to live in Lisa Perry's New York, New York store and play dress up until I couldn't stand it anymore! Her collection pieces are FAB-U-LOUS (two snaps up)!

Also called the CIRCLE.

This is the FLEURDELISA dress. I think Barbie wore this dress.


The SWIRL.



Lisa Perry's bio states that her life is infused with her love of 1960's vintage couture fashion and art, mixing her love of that era into her lifestyle and a philosophy of clean lines, geometric shapes, primary colors and minimalism all sprinkled with a sense of Whimsy. I find it fitting to include some of her collection pieces on GirlWhimsy. I'm all about the Whimsy!

Day Dress, c. 1836 - 1840
This is not a vintage dress we could wear today, but I had to post it to showcase the vintage floral print in the dress.
And, I don't want to take away from the fact that this is a museum piece, but I can see this dress being cut down into a two-piece corset and flowing knee length skirt!
