When young women are choosing a special dress for a party or their prom night, they often want to choose something unique and different from what everyone else will be wearing. Choosing a vintage outfit is a great way of selecting a dress that will be flattering and timeless, but will also stand out from the crowd.
The Ophelia dress can be worn by any age, but is exceptionally flattering when worn by young women and can be dressed up or down, whatever the occasion. The Ophelia dress was named after the Shakespearean character Ophelia in the play Hamlet and it became famous in the 1950s when designers used it as inspiration for their fashion ranges. An Ophelia dress is designed and shaped to highlight a woman’s figure and it became even more stunning when combined with one of the many colourful and frilly petticoats that were increasing in popularity at the time.
The Lindy Bop Ophelia dress is exceptionally flattering and the neckline has been designed in such a way as to show off the bust area and the slim fitting bodice was created to highlight an hourglass figure.
The vintage petticoat may be an understated item of clothing, but it has certainly carved a place for itself in women’s fashion history. Petticoats were of course undergarments and originally gained prominence in the fashion world during the 1950s, thanks to Dior. A petticoat was considered to be a great way of enhancing a number of vintage dresses, including the Ophelia dress. A black vintage sleeveless Ophelia dress, worn with a lace petticoat underneath, would create a beautiful outfit for any prom or special party.
