THE DAWN OF THE SHORT FORMAL

When it comes to 1950s retro and bridal, these dresses from Posh Girl Vintage are the real deal. Owning a dress like this means you have something that's made it through the ages. And what an awesome era it was. Most dresses circa the age of Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn are stunning and follow very flattering lines. By mid-fifties tea length was the standard in day dress. The short formal became chic during this time and as a result we have a wealth of memorable bridal dresses like these surviving this era.
