Sister's & Vintage Matching Dresses...LOVE

 

 

Greetings Friends...

I hope you all had a lovely Springtime Holiday, we most

certainly did! The end of April is always packed full

of events with Easter & birthdays, but I LOVE

all the Celebrations & it gave me a chance to

gather some lovely images of vintage

sister's in Matching Dresses.

 

 

I LOVE these sister's & their outfits. Look at the subtle

little differences between the older sister's dress & the

younger one's...a little more off the shoulders, a

little longer & a lovely necklace surrounds

her neck, Gorgeous!

 

 

How adorable are these sweet sisters? They're much

younger, but their dear little matching

dresses are sew perfect.

 

 

I love the little embellishment of zig-zagged fabric around

the shoulders, cuffs & hem. I would guess that most of

these dresses were made by Mommy's. When buying

fabric, it just makes sense that it would be less

expensive to make a couple in the same style

then two totally different designs.

 

 

The dresses, necklaces, bloomers, shoes & hair are all

matching on these girls...I imagine Mommy saying

"Take her hand Sissy", as the older one grabs the

hand of the smaller one, looking not all too

happy for having to do so.

 

 

These outfits are lovely, the jackets trimmed in velvet

on the collar & the cuffs & the beautiful full front

panel of velvet on the skirt. I wonder what color

they are, do you think they were black?

 

I don't...I picture them as being a deep, sapphire blue &

look how sweetly the younger one takes her

big sister's arm.

 

 

Aweeee...this one is sooooo cute. These girls are literally

less then a year apart, don't you think! I love her little

arm around her sister's shoulder, precious.

 

 

And of course, there are always the twins,

 

 

or triplets or a mother & her 2 daughters?

This picture confuses me. lol

 

 

But this is my very favorite...five little stair stepped daughters

all in matching dresses, all holding their hands together in

front of them, even the baby. How did Mama do that?

 

The older girls have a peek-a-boo sleeve, while the three younger

girls sleeves are edged in white. I ADORE them, their necklaces

& curls, their hands & dresses, oh & their faces too...perfect!

 

Hope you enjoyed this little post. Maybe you have a sister that you

wore matching dresses with. Maybe you have twin girls that you put

in matching dresses for their special pictures. Life has changed

so much, but it's lovely to think in many ways, in the ways

of Mother's & Daughter's, things are still very much

the same, that makes me smile!

 

XOXO
