The little black dress

When "Mad Men" went sixties...

The fifth season of "Mad Men" started with the brand new, fresh and young Mrs Draper singing "Zou Bisou" in a sheer little black dress. A real declaration of intent for the first sixties season!

If you want to look just as sixties, elegant and sexy as Mrs. Draper, The vintage Dilemma has the perfect sheer little black dress for you.

This is an example of a vintage sheer dress that looks like it just stepped off the runaway. Exquisitely made, great silhouette and fabrics.

To look through its fabric is a sheer pleasure...

PICKPOCKET (or all the vintage jewels that fit into your pocket).

"Pickpocket" is a 1959 masterpiece by French director Robert Bresson. Sober and elegant, there is something about this movie that captures the essence of the late-fifties European style. The same essence that emanates from The Vintage Dilemma's jewelries.

In the movie, the young uruguayan, non-professional actor Martin La Salle, plays Michel, who integrates a band of professional pickpockets who work in crowded public spaces.

Small Vintage Brown Reddish Wallet with Brass Clasp by TVD

Bresson gives us no reason to think that Michel is poor and steals out of real need. It seems that he just wants a better, more beautiful life.

 At his mother's house, Michel meets Jeanne, an attractive girl plaid by Marika Green (yes, Eva Green's aunt). Jeanne has a relationship with one of Michel's friends. Michel shows no feelings for her or for anyone else. He is, it seems, a cold heart.

1950s Deco Crest Brooch by MONET.

Well, Michel may be a cold heart, but from the beautiful pieces he chooses to steal all along the movie, you can see that he has a really good taste!

At the end of the movie, Jeanne visits Michel in prison and he realizes that he is in love with her. In a way, at that moment he understands that he is more human than he himself thought.
