    Getting a vintage haircut: what to ask for?

    Gosh, no! That technique was probably more common in the 1940's, but hairdressing has changed (and for the better.) For example, stylists no longer cut over top of the fingers while holding the ends. Dry cuts should only be used after a wet cut, for details/finishing touches. I section my...

    Can the Snood Save Christmas?

    I suppose so, eh? :rolleyes: I quite like the scarf things in that pattern! I wouldn't call them snoods though.

    Today I am a "Ma'am"

    My mistake - I meant to say Danish. The Dutch don't have an obvious accent to me, either, but Danes do :)

    You're too kind, Ephraim :) David Conwill has enormous potential for an attorney face (or solicitor, for those Down Under!) Here are some pictures of the Supreme Court of Canada: Outside; Inside; And the Supreme Justices in their funky lookin' robes. This is the Toronto Court of...

    Getting a vintage haircut: what to ask for?

    I do a middy plus as described in 1940's Hairstyles. Good thing I learned basic hairdressing in high school, because I can't let anyone near my hair lest they cut a strand wrong! People today don't wear hairstyles, they wear haircuts. Stylists don't understand shingling, or the u-shape, so I...

    Can the Snood Save Christmas?

    I use snarf to describe when a dog tries to lick your hand, but snorts at the same time - It's an onomatopoeia lol Vintage terms and names are hilariously misinterpreted today. Those "snoods" are a case in point. Type "vintage fashion" into Google Image Search and you will get this:

    What is your favorite retro look on a handsome man?

    Especially if its a very unique look! I don't like trendy men who wear whatever is cool this season. If I want a clotheshorse, I'll buy a shoe rack.

    What is your favorite retro look on a handsome man?

    Who didn't? ;) :offtopic: According to various sources, including Vivien Leigh, Myrna Loy, Carole Lombard and Joan Crawford, Gable had the worst teeth and breath. Watch Leigh in Gone With the Wind and Loy in Wife vs. Secretary very closely - When he speaks close to their faces before...

    Show us what you've made!

    Ooh my, chocolate brown taffeta? That will look amazing with that pattern. Reminds me of New Look. I wish I could give tips, but I've never made a dress before. I have a sailor dress pattern from sixsexsix, but have yet to attempt the daunting feat. Good luck, I'm excited to see the...
