What did women in the 1940's and 1950's pin on an otherwise ordinary sweater to make it extraordinary? A mink pin, of course!
Mink pins, in the shape of dogs, other animals, flowers and stars, were all the rage.
At Stella's, we have available two flower mink pins, each with a large rhinestone center, pictured at right, priced at $20.00 each.
Elegance was an important factor for fifties fashion. Hollywood had a major role to play in influencing the 1950’s clothing. These patterns and designs were splashed across glamour magazines such as Vogue and Women’s Weekly. Flowers, stripes, spots and abstract shapes all became a part of the fifties fashion.
The pointed formed, conically stitched bra was actually a fashion accessory, as without one the sweater girl look was certainly not right. Fashionable accessories included popper beads and spectacles with enormous wings that arched upward in twirls that could be studded with rhinestones. Additionally, fur trimmings abounded and adorned collars and cuffs, as well, being made into brooches, like the ones offered at Stella's. 
Classic fifties glamor available at Stella's - a mink flower brooch with rhinestone center -- a gift for the woman who has everything!
