Show us your Swirl dresses!
So, I know there are quite a few Swirl lovers and collectors here on the board, so I wanted to start a thread for people to show theirs off (or post pictures of really fab ones you've found online). Pictures of Swirls are like a drug to me, they make me so happy and I can't get enough of them...- Fleur De Guerre

Miss Hannah actually brought this to my attention, but I haven't seen it mentioned here yet. UK ladies may be interested that Boots just brought out a vintage range based on their original products.

UK (and US!) girls
I just came back from a 50s memorabilia show and made the most wonderful discovery. I just had to share! There was a couple exhibiting there, and the girl makes high waisted trousers from that Simplicity pattern to order as well as circle skirts, tie-front tops, bloomery sort of tap-pants...- Fleur De Guerre

The Prestige
Anyone else heard about this? I saw a trailor for it and it look brilliant. I really want to read the book before I see it though. I have heard great things about Christopher Priest, I like Nolan's films and it has a great cast. What more do you need?- Fleur De Guerre
