Shirts

The shirt of the 1940s to 1960s is the simple top to wear with a skirt or trousers: short, close fitting and usually made of knit or jersey. Typical styles are the short sleeved knitted top, the boat neck top and the striped top worn with jeans. Our retro shirts and tops are newly made by Femkit, Hearts & Roses, Weekend Doll, Banned Retro, Palava and Circus Clothing, with a size chart on every product page.

The fabrics are cotton, viscose and fine knit, in plain colours such as burgundy, navy, red and white, with stripes, embroidery or prints. Depending on the style there are small buttons at the neckline, a polo collar or puff sleeves. A top like this is the piece that turns Marlene trousers or a pencil skirt into an everyday outfit without it looking like a costume.

More tops: cardigans, jumpers and waistcoats, plus vintage style blouses for occasions. These tops go well with high waisted jeans, circle skirts and culottes, and you will find the complete outfit under rockabilly fashion. And if you would rather try things on, you can visit our shop in Windsbach by appointment.
