Tutti Frutti Chevron Cutie

Continuing on with my previously noted obsessions with color and patterns (colorful patterns are even better), I think the later 1930s chevron striped dress from Vindemial Vintage is just delicious! Reminds me of that "Fruit Stripe" gum I used to buy as a kid.  I wonder if the earlier 30s dress and matching hat worn by Jean Harlow in the first image was as colourful?!

I LOVED Fruit Stripe gum!!! I wonder if they still make it. The two dresses are fabulous.

Oooh...I love Norma's outfit! But all those matching stripes are scary to think about putting together.
