Last month we did a lovely photo shoot with Monica, Miss Art Deco, and her stylish beau Sam, at the wonderful Chateau Tivoli in San Francisco.
Monica wore a smashing reproduction flapper gown from Unique-Vintage.com, paired with our brown & white 23Skidoo Spectator T-Straps, which serendipitously matched Sam’s real vintage spectators perfectly.
We had a great time, and hope you enjoy the photos!
Here is a behind-the-scenes video I pieced together…
Models: Monica Lenk & Sam Simmons
Photography: Chris Stowell
Shoes: “23Skidoo” by American Duchess

February 8, 2013 at 7:26 PMOoh, I love it! Wonderful pictures, and perfect location! They look great, and how fun that their shoes match! 😀
Question though — what sort of slip or underdress is Monica wearing with the Unique Vintage dress? I really like the colors better on her and in your pictures and video. The pictures on the UV webpage make it look more pale and light green and I like your sort of moss-green color. (I'm terrible with color names, but you get the idea, right?)
Pretty!

February 8, 2013 at 8:45 PMHi Jamie – I made a slip to go with the dress (http://americanduchess.blogspot.com/2013/01/v351-how-to-make-simplest-1920s-slip.html). It's a very close match to the color of the fabric, but you are right, the photo on the Unique-Vintage website looks MUCH bluer than the dress is. It's very olive/moss, rather than more teal.
