			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The fashion designer Lilly Pulitzer is credited with popularizing the sundress in the 1960s. The sundress is characterized by lightweight fabric, usually cotton, and a flowing fit.  Some of the best examples of the sundress are from the 1970s, in the prairie style. This <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&#038;ProductID=25140">floral frock </a> is a beautiful shade of maroon and is in great condition!      </p>
<div id="attachment_2703" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 226px"><a href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/04/summertime-sundress-season/prairie/" rel="attachment wp-att-2703"><img src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/prairie.jpg" alt="maroon sundress" title="prairie style sundress #25140  " width="216" height="300" class="size-full wp-image-2703" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">prairie sundress</p></div>
<p>Another example of the prairie style, is this brown and <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&#038;ProductID=11528">pale grey sundress</a>.</p>
<div id="attachment_2710" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 210px"><a href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/04/summertime-sundress-season/floral/" rel="attachment wp-att-2710"><img src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/floral.jpg" alt="vintage sundress" title="grey and brown sundress #11528 " width="200" height="300" class="size-full wp-image-2710" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">collectible prairie dress</p></div>
<p>The camisole top with the satin trim is quintessential 1970s and a timeless classic.  Also popular in the 1970s was the full length maxi sundress.  This handmade <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&#038;ProductID=25725">lime green dress</a> actually has tiny white polka dots on it and is in excellent condition.  </p>

<p>One more from the 1970s, is this simple and chic, <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&#038;ProductID=22313">red sundress</a>. </p>
<div id="attachment_2724" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 229px"><a href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/04/summertime-sundress-season/red/" rel="attachment wp-att-2724"><img src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/red.jpg" alt="70s sundress" title="red vintage sundress #22313  " width="219" height="300" class="size-full wp-image-2724" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">collectible red dress</p></div><br />
 A lightweight cotton with white trim and an elastic waist, this dress is both comfortable and pretty! </p>
<p>Taking a step back further into the 1960s, we have this fabulous <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&#038;ProductID=23824">summertime shift</a>.</p>
<p>                                                       <div id="attachment_2727" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 237px"><a href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/04/summertime-sundress-season/shift/" rel="attachment wp-att-2727"><img src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/shift.jpg" alt="collectible sundress" title="vintage summertime shift #23824" width="227" height="300" class="size-full wp-image-2727" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">1960s dress</p></div>
<p>A fantastic find for the modern woman!  Made of cotton and a size large.  Don&#8217;t forget to accessorize when dressing in a vintage sundress.  These spectacular <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&#038;ProductID=11408">1950s ruffled gloves</a> are made with striped organdy.  </p>
<div id="attachment_2744" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 220px"><a href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/04/summertime-sundress-season/gloves/" rel="attachment wp-att-2744"><img src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/gloves.jpg" alt="collectible gloves" title="vintage ruffle gloves #11408" width="210" height="300" class="size-full wp-image-2744" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">vintage 1950s gloves</p></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The first Aloha shirts were originally created for tourists by Ellery Chun, in 1930s Honolulu.  Although Chinese, Mr. Chun made the first shirts out of old Kimono fabric and they were an immediate hit with tourists and surfers.  Vintage Aloha shirts are now a sought after collectible all over the world. Monstervintage has a range of Aloha shirts to offer, to fit every budget and size.  Starting off with a rare and exciting find, this <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&#038;ProductID=26104" >McGregor label 1940s rayon shirt</a> has beautiful tropical fish printed on the back and shell buttons.</p>

<p>Another fantastic find, and a bit more affordable, is this 1960s tiki delight.</p>
<div id="attachment_2664" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 250px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2664" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/04/2658/tiki/"><img class="size-full wp-image-2664" title="Hukilau Aloha shirt #28095 " src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/tiki.jpg" alt="collectible Hawaiian shirt" width="240" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">vintage Hawaiian shirt</p></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Aloha attire for women is an offshoot of the Hawaiian Aloha shirt, the traditional Hawaiian muumuu, and the more formal holoku. What originated in the 1930s as a shirt for tourists made from old kimono fabric, soon became one of the most widely worn summertime looks.  For many people, the love affair with Hawaiian and Polynesian fabrics has grown into avid collecting of vintage Aloha shirts and muumuus.   Of course, monstervintage has a lovely assortment of vintage Hawaiian wear to share with you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The fashions of the 1920s are some of the most beautiful and recognizable in history.  The dropped waist, cloche hats, and bobbed hairdo, all epitomize the flapper style.  Monstervintage has some rare finds in excellent condition from this time period.</p>
<div id="attachment_2519" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 238px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2519" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/04/fashions-and-flappers-of-the-1920s/blacklace/"><img class="size-full wp-image-2519" title="#26662 " src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/BlackLace.jpg" alt="sheer ebony lace 1920s dress small" width="228" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">1920s Black Lace Dress</p></div>
<p>Find out more about this collector&#8217;s piece <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&amp;ProductID=26662">here</a>.  Another stellar example, in an unusual and gorgeous shade of blue, is this <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&amp;ProductID=21435">satin flapper delight</a>.</p>
<div id="attachment_2530" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 233px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2530" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/04/fashions-and-flappers-of-the-1920s/bluesatin/"><img class="size-full wp-image-2530" title="Rare Flapper Dress" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/blueSatin.jpg" alt="Blue Satin 1920s Dress" width="223" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">collectable 1920s dress</p></div>
<p>One more stunning dress from the jazz age is this <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&amp;ProductID=26083">brown velvet frock</a>, perfect for a winter afternoon or a cocktail party.</p>
<div id="attachment_2537" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 232px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2537" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/04/fashions-and-flappers-of-the-1920s/brownsmall/"><img class="size-full wp-image-2537" title="Brown Velvet 1920s Dress" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/BrownSmall.jpg" alt="dress from the 1920s " width="222" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">brown dress from the 1920s</p></div>
<p>The perfect wrap to go with any of these stunning dresses would be a breathtaking <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&amp;ProductID=28405">dolman style coat</a>.  This showstopper of a robe was made by Steinberg&#8217;s Saint Louis in the 1920s.</p>
<div id="attachment_2544" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 237px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2544" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/04/fashions-and-flappers-of-the-1920s/velvetwrap/"><img class="size-full wp-image-2544" title="#28405 " src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/VelvetWrap.jpg" alt="dolman style 1920s coat" width="227" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Velvet dolman style 1920s wrap</p></div>
<p>Another  more practical way to get the flapper look without actually  wearing the  fragile garments from the 1920s, is to wear vintage  from other decades that mimic the look.  Here is a flapper fashion from the 1960s  film Thoroughly Modern Millie.</p>
<div id="attachment_2552" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 197px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2552" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/04/fashions-and-flappers-of-the-1920s/muzzy/"><img class="size-full wp-image-2552" title="Carol Channing as Muzzy in Thoroughly Modern Millie" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/Muzzy.jpg" alt="Carol Channing in a flapper costume" width="187" height="270" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Carol Channing in Thoroughly Modern Millie</p></div>
<p>This beautiful 1960s dress from monstervintage is the bee&#8217;s knees, but not so fragile!  You will be the belle of the ball in this <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&amp;ProductID=27879">pink ruffle confection</a>.</p>
<div id="attachment_2555" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 229px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2555" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/04/fashions-and-flappers-of-the-1920s/pinklace/"><img class="size-full wp-image-2555" title="#27879  " src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/PinkLace.jpg" alt="pink lace vintage dress" width="219" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">pink lace and ruffle 1960s dropwaist </p></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The dashing and handsome Mr. Christopher Lee holds the world record for the most film acting roles ever. Mainly know for his roles as Dracula and Frankenstein during the 1960s and 70s, he is also notable for being in more recent films like The Lord Of The Rings. Check out some vintage fashions inspired by one of the masters of the silver screen.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2438" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-costumes-of-sir-christopher-lee/leevamp/"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2438" title="Christopher Lee as Dracula" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/LeeVamp-240x300.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Before becoming an actor, Christopher Lee served in The Royal Air Force during WWII. Perhaps he wore something similar to this rare leather and fur overcoat from the 1940s?  This WWII double breasted coat is a large size for a big and tall man, just like Mr. Lee.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2416" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-costumes-of-sir-christopher-lee/subleath/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2416" title="WWII Sub Overcoat #25591 " src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/SubLeath.jpg" alt="" width="216" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Find out more about this rare vintage coat <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&amp;ProductID=25591">here.</a></p>
<p>Here we see Mr. Lee wearing a double breasted coat in the 1957 film Frankenstein.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2445" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-costumes-of-sir-christopher-lee/doubleb/"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2445" title="Christopher Lee as Frankenstein" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/DoubleB-240x300.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Another 1940s vintage piece is this <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&amp;ProductID=26584">pea coat</a> in great condition.  Heavy weight wool and with the original anchor buttons, this WWII era coat will keep you warm as you wander the forest at night looking for friends.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2447" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-costumes-of-sir-christopher-lee/peacoat-2/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2447" title="Pea Coat #26584  " src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/PeaCoat1.jpg" alt="" width="229" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Christopher Lee&#8217;s first appearance as a vampire was in the movie Dracula from 1958, released as Horror of Dracula in the US.   Always mesmerizing, we see him here in a still from Dracula Has Risen From The Grave made in 1968.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2464" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-costumes-of-sir-christopher-lee/dracgrave/"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2464" title="Dracula Has Risen From The Grave 1968" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/DracGrave-300x240.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="240" /></a></p>
<p>When dressing as the undead all it really takes, is a good black cape to make your victims swoon!</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2425" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-costumes-of-sir-christopher-lee/blackcape-2/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2425" title="Black Cape" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/BlackCape1.jpg" alt="" width="226" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>This one size fits all 1960s cape is a <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&amp;ProductID=3544">steal </a> at $29.99!</p>
<p>This beautiful vintage wool <a href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2010/11/the-truth-behind-vintage-pendleton/">Pendleton</a> coat is surely something befitting Sherlock Holmes. Find out more <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&amp;ProductID=28575">here</a>.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2470" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-costumes-of-sir-christopher-lee/pencoat/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2470" title="Pendleton Coat" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/PenCoat.jpg" alt="" width="219" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Christopher Lee first played Sir Henry Baskerville to Peter Cushing&#8217;s Sherlock Holmes in The Hound of The Baskervilles in 1959.  He also played Sherlock himself, in Sherlock and The Deadly Necklace in 1969.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2469" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-costumes-of-sir-christopher-lee/sherlock2/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2469" title="Christopher Lee as Sherlock Holmes" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/Sherlock2.jpg" alt="" width="118" height="166" /></a></p>
<p>A true dandy changes into a <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&amp;ProductID=22668">smoking jacket</a> before indulging in a pipe.  Here is a superb example from the monstervintage collection.  Made in the 1950s with gold and green Asian embroidery, it is lounge wear fit for a king!</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2473" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-costumes-of-sir-christopher-lee/smokjack/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2473" title="Vintage Smoking Jacket" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/SmokJack.jpg" alt="" width="258" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve never seen Beat Girl from 1960, you&#8217;re in for a real treat.  Christopher Lee plays Kenny, the owner of a strip club called Les Girls, where the young protagonist of the film is persuaded  to dance.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2482" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-costumes-of-sir-christopher-lee/beatgirl/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2482" title="Christopher Lee in Beat Girl" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/beatgirl.jpg" alt="" width="211" height="161" /></a></p>
<p>How to dress like a strip club owner in 1960s London you might ask?  This <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&amp;ProductID=28753">Curlee Sportswear blazer</a> would be a good way to start and then just add a <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&amp;ProductID=20516">Towncraft Snapper clip on tie</a> from the same era.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2483" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-costumes-of-sir-christopher-lee/blazer/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2483" title="Curlee Sportswear Blazer #28753  " src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/blazer.jpg" alt="" width="226" height="300" /></a></p>

<p>Before there was Burning Man there was Wicker Man from 1973. Behold the beauty of Christopher Lee and his manly mustard turtleneck.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2489" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-costumes-of-sir-christopher-lee/wicker/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2489" title="Christopher Lee in Wicker Man" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/wicker.jpg" alt="" width="142" height="155" /></a></p>
<p>Watch the movie to find out how pagan rituals are hell on hairstyles.  A similar sweater style from monstervintage is this rare 1970s <a href="http://www.monstervintage.com/catalog.php?state=showProduct&amp;ProductID=15761">Kawasaki ski sweater</a>.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2490" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-costumes-of-sir-christopher-lee/sweater/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2490" title="Vintage Kawasaki ski sweater #15761  " src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/sweater.jpg" alt="" width="214" height="300" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">Some of the best vintage fashions can be found in horror films from the 1960s. Here we take a look at some of the costumes seen in films from Hammer Studios as well as the legendary Mario Bava.  Look no further than films like The Vampire Lovers, starring Ingrid Pitt, for Hammer glamour inspiration!  Here you can see Ms. Pitt wearing a lime green empire waist long sleeved gown while contemplating her next conquest.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2342" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/ingrid-pitt-the-vampire-lovers/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2342 aligncenter" title="Ingrid Pitt in The Vampire Lovers" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/ingrid-pitt-the-vampire-lovers-239x300.jpg" alt="Ingrid Pitt in The Vampire Lovers" width="167" height="210" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">A similar fashion from the monstervintage catalog is another empire waisted maxi, this time with a lace top.<a rel="attachment wp-att-2330" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/greenmaxi/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2330" title="Olive Green Maxi with Lace Top" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/GreenMaxi.jpg" alt="" width="143" height="210" /></a> You just don&#8217;t see this olive shade of green being worn anymore and it&#8217;s a real shame. The crepe rayon skirt with the fetching bow accessory is a strong look for the modern woman. Here is another vintage green from the same period with a more austere design.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2329" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/greenmaxi2/"><img class="size-full wp-image-2329 aligncenter" title="1960's Green Maxi Dress" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/GreenMaxi2.jpg" alt="" width="113" height="210" /></a></p>
<p>A bit less daring, this pink chiffon extravaganza reminds me of the gown that Ingrid Pitt wears in Countess Dracula before bathing in the blood of virgins.<a rel="attachment wp-att-2334" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/pinkmaxi/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2334" title="Pink Chiffon 1980's Gown" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/PinkMaxi.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2340" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/countessdrac/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2340" title="Ingrid Pitt as Elizabeth Bathory in Countess Dracula" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/CountessDrac.jpg" alt="" width="299" height="168" /></a></p>
<p>A sample dress from New York&#8217;s garment district, the bubble gum pink 1980s gown is in mint condition.</p>
<p>The undisputed queen of the spaghetti horror films, Barbara Steele can be seen here in an image from the legendary Mario Bava film, Black Sunday, the first Italian horror film.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2346" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/steelesunday/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2346" title="Barbara Steele in Black Sunday" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/SteeleSunday.jpg" alt="" width="267" height="189" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">This 19th century black cape  perfectly reflects Ms. Steele&#8217;s look of Victorian gloom.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2327" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/blackcape/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2327" title="Black Victorian Cape" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/BlackCape.jpg" alt="" width="146" height="210" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">With a Peter Pan collar and satin piping trim it is a must have for costume fanciers.  Although Ms. Steele is not wearing a hat with this costume, you may still consider pairing the cape with this fabulous and rare bonnet again from the collection of monstervintage.<a rel="attachment wp-att-2326" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/blackbonnet/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2326" title="Rare Victorian Black Bonnet" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/BlackBonnet.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a><br />
Never underestimate the importance of a well placed hat to contribute to your vintage look.  Ms. Steele shows us how it&#8217;s done.</p>

<p>The Twins of Evil show some lovely 1860s/1960s fashions as well as giving us  a look at vintage nightgowns.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2348" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/twinsevil/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2348" title="Mary and Madeleine Collinson as Twins of Evil" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/TwinsEvil.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="252" /></a></p>
<p>In keeping with the 1970s color scheme, here are a couple of examples of maxi dresses that can be found at monstervintage.com.<a rel="attachment wp-att-2332" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/orangefloralmaxi/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2332" title="1970's Orange Floral Maxi" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/OrangeFloralMaxi.jpg" alt="" width="205" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2333" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/orangerufflemaxi/"> </a></p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2333" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/orangerufflemaxi/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2333" title="OrangeRuffleMaxi" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/OrangeRuffleMaxi.jpg" alt="" width="232" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>You may find yourself wondering  what do these Twins of Evil wear at night?</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2350" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/twinsnightgown-2/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2350" title="The Twins of Evil in Their Nightgowns of Doom" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/TwinsNightgown1.jpg" alt="" width="188" height="269" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The look can easily be achieved with this beautiful vintage peignoir.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2331" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/nightierobe/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2331" title="Vintage Peignoir" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/NightieRobe.jpg" alt="" width="187" height="240" /></a></p>
<p>Again we can look at Ingrid Pitt in The Vampire Lovers for inspiration in wearing vintage lingerie.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2345" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/pittcoffin/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2345" title="Ingrid Pitt in The Vampire Lovers" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/PittCoffin.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="224" /></a></p>
<p>A simple white vintage slip is all it takes to resemble a 1960s era Vampire bombshell!</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2336" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/whiteslip/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2336" title="White Vintage Slip" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/WhiteSlip.jpg" alt="" width="207" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Remember to be beautifully monstrous when choosing your look for the day!</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-2337" href="http://blog.monstervintage.com/2012/03/monstrous-vintage-fashions-how-to-get-the-hammer-glamour-look/blacksunbsteele/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2337" title="Barbara Steele in Black Sunday" src="http://blog.monstervintage.com/wp-content/uploads/BlackSunBSteele.jpg" alt="" width="287" height="176" /></a></p>
<p>And as Vampira would say, bad dreams darlings&#8230;.</p>
