Coleen, her daughter Jewell, and Sandi attended the 1920s Ice Cream Social - SOLD OUT! at Nash Farm, Grapevine Texas.

Coleen and Sandi's outfits were begun at a recent One Hour Dress Workshop, also in Grapevine. Coleen made her dress and her daughter's dress out of cotton while Sandi's outer dress is a vintage cotton Sari with a simple dress underneath. Their hats and matching face masks were also purchased/repurposed and decorated.

Contact us if you'd like information for your own 1920s dress.
