I went to that exhibition and can honestly say nothing there was as nice as either of these! Honestly it was mostly costumes and obviously 1920s fashion, although used as inspiration now was not generally as glamorous as it was made out to be. Only the most wealthy of women would have a selection of outfits and as a result a lot of the things on show were quite plain. The shoes they had though were adorable! Tiny tiny women's shoes, size 3 were about the sample sizes and they looked like they would barely fit a child's foot! We can also be very grateful that they don't make shoes the same as they did back then - both shoes out of the pair were identical so there was no shaping for comfort. I'm quite glad I exist in an age where flats are very much welcome. Although I covet this level of glamour, I don't think I could quite bear it in practice!

Nom
I don't think I could quite justify this purchase, even with student discount. It's from the Kate Moss collection at Topshop, and it is stunning. I am feasting my eyes people, as it is £250 and as a mere mortal I could never own it. It's quite reminiscent of the dress Kate herself wore to the opening of the Dior exhibition at the V&A (the one she ripped?).
