Such cute things! Glad you posted more pics. I love the swimsuit line by Barrie! And that Modcloth dress...*sobs* I really love the blue sailor top with white collar also, that would be easy to make!

Here is me in the last sailor dress I bought. Ahoy!

I just came across this thread and thought I'd add my recent series on Sailor Style - I traced the evolution of sailor dresses from Victorian era to 1970s.

Part 1: Nautical Fashion is Born
Part 2: The Rise of the Middy
Part 3: Nautical Sails Again (my favourite!)
Part 4: Wartime Patriotism
Part 5: Nautical Novelties - 1950s and Beyond

Ladies... Pardon the interruption... Does anyone have a source for new white "dixie cup" hats?
