My partner and I are trying to get in character for our new home, and need to backdate our looks a bit. Can anyone recommend places that have nice 50s/60s-era clothes?

For her, I'd love to see a white t-shirt with cigarette pack rolled up in the sleeve and blue jeans with the cuffs rolled up high. For me, I'd like some nice calf-length and knee-length house dresses.

Period furniture recommendations also appreciated!

Check out /artilleri/ and comme il faut

Beezle Warburton · 05-25-2008, 01:11 PM

1-800-Bettie's

Io Zeno · 05-25-2008, 01:11 PM

Ivalde makes great retro clothing, all periods. Don't know if it's what you are looking for though.

I am also looking for 30's/40's style hair.

Oh, yes, awesome shit, especially 40/50's.

Sarah Nerd · 05-25-2008, 01:20 PM

1-800-Bettie's is cool, I just checked it out and got some awesome boots.

Also look at Ingenue (more 50's/ pinup ) and Jetdoll (Rockabilly with a little Bettie Page thrown in )

I just want to pimp her clothes because they rock. She even has the Warhol Campbell Soup dress from the 60's.

Agreed ... She really does rock ... and this has nothing to do with me being chosen as a model for her last winter collection

Mourna Biziou · 05-25-2008, 01:32 PM

The Retrology sim has lots of fun retro shops. Not sure if anyone has the time period you're looking for, but it's worth a go.

Kalia Meiklejohn · 05-25-2008, 05:40 PM

Curl up and Dye is supposed to have some some good period hair, haven't made it there myself though.

Bunns · 05-25-2008, 05:47 PM

Jetdoll has some vintage type hair, I got a cute Bettiesque hair there.

Comme il Faut has lovely hair like that-- very elegant, some with hats.

Aisuru Rieko · 05-25-2008, 06:09 PM

Icing has some nice dresses that might fit your bill too. and don't forget to check out Elegance hats, on the Ivalde sim, hats can really complete a period look.

Cristiano · 05-25-2008, 06:20 PM

Try this for 50's:

Cripes I've barely gotten through 1/3 of this thread and we've already blown thousands... thank/damn you all!

Io Zeno · 05-26-2008, 08:03 PM

Well Jetdoll's hair is no mod and I can't do that, her hair is too small. Comme il Faut didn't have what I was looking for but Curl up and Dye did, cool hair there.

Then I went and bought more Zero style because I'm addicted. :/

Oh! All I got was some retro leopard skin undies at Artilleri but I just want to say what a fabulous build that is.

Kalia Meiklejohn · 05-27-2008, 03:57 PM

*does dance of success*
I'm glad you found stuff, now I have to make it there!

Rosie Barthelmess · 05-28-2008, 10:36 AM

Ingenue for house dresses and 40s-50s hair.

Dakota Buck · 05-29-2008, 01:59 AM

Old Gravy and Marly's might have some suitable hair too.

Beebo Brink · 05-31-2008, 09:55 PM
