Call me Betty

"Vintage style for a modern woman"



What does that mean? well it means I've taken the best bits of vintage styling, shape and design and combined them with up to date sizing and a new silhouette to accomodate a modern womans body. The best of both worlds I'd say!

Mood boards

It's some times tricky to decide on the perfect accessories to go with you pretty new dress, well it's my intention to at least help with these tough decisions, so when the new dresses arrive in 6 weeks or so, i plan to have mood boards at the ready, for you to see the kind of accessories, shoes and bags I'd like to put with each of them, a fun project for me, and hopefully useful for you!!

Baby betty

Well i am a childresnwear designer by trade, so it's inevitable at some point i'll venture into childrenswear, and for now i'm polaying around with all of my surplus fabrics and hand making items, but eventually i'll work on a proper collection to come in along side the ladieswear, here are a few pics of my creations!



Ava

Well, Ava finally arrived, and she's everything I hoped she'd be, demure, show stopping, flattering, comfortable, a little flirty, she's stunning and will be another Grace in terms of her popularity i predict, once you've tried her you'll want to own more!!

Here are a few pics of the current collection of Ava's, but more are planned in a cream and navy stripe with anchor print, and a cream with pretty fuschia peony's!




They're available in my ebay shop right now, and come in sizes 8-20, priced at £70, £85 with a petticoat!

too long!

Oh it's been far too long since I posted anything on here! but hopefully I'll be keeping up with it a bit better over the coming months, so where to start well, there's the recent drop of Grace dresses, the brand new Ava dresses, there's betty on a budget, and baby betty, so much going on, i think each deserves its own post!!
