Photos of Vintage Evening Gowns and Tuxedos

Vintage Inspired

24 Feb 2014

Last week’s photo of the day theme was evening wear. With prom season right around the corner and so many winter balls and galas taking place, it is the perfect time to look at the most glamorous of all vintage evening gowns and dresses. We can’t forget the gentlemen, too, who always look so fine in tuxedos and dinner jackets.
