Floral tea dresses became famous when English high society began to indulge in the popular trend of afternoon tea. The informal dresses were chosen for this occasion as they gave a relaxed look and feel, but were also fashionable, stylish and very flattering.

A floral tea dress is a great choice for a variety of different informal events and occasions, even for going out on picnics. The dresses have a loose fitting style and are extremely comfortable to wear. You can find floral tea dresses in a wide range of colours and patterns that are pretty and flattering. Whether you are just relaxing with friends, enjoying the sunshine on a beach, or attending formal party, the dress will be perfect anywhere.

Similarly, the Ophelia dress worn by the fictional character from the William Shakespeare play, Hamlet is another vintage dress which is immensely popular with women.

The shape of the dress is absolutely adorable with its slim waist and flared hem of the skirt. It is easy to wear and highly comfortable and can be worn for any occasion, from a casual drink or a stroll in the beach. The dress is equally suitable for formal and prom parties. The Ophelia dress is particularly flattering for ladies who have a bigger bust and a curvier figure.

The Ophelia dress would look outstanding with a classic lacy petticoat worn underneath, as it would greatly enhance the movement and the form of the dress. A fitted jacket or cardigan would also go very well with this dress.

Whether you are looking for your very own vintage Ophelia dress, or a pretty floral tea dress, the best place to look is one of the many online vintage clothing boutiques. From the comfort of your own home, you choose from a wide range of designs, colours and patterns to create the perfect outfit for you. You can have your dress made to your specific measurements and requirements, so you know that it will be a truly unique and bespoke outfit for your wardrobe. Although it is always exciting to buy a genuine vintage garment, buying something new and handmade for you, will ensure that it will last the test of time and you will be able to wear it to as many occasions as you wish, and it will look absolutely perfect every time.
