A sweet advertisement I picked out of this issue of POL Magazine from 1982. I had a quick google search on the designer
Norma Lissek and managed to find out she now buys for a little shop in Geelong which is quite cool that she's still doing what she loves. I wonder what she'd think now of her designs here. Personally I think they're sweet and I especially like the royal blue/white combo (top right in the first picture).
Drop waists were very popular then they really haven't had a revival recently
ReplyDeleteThey were extremely popular - especially in 1982. Recently I have seen a few drop waist clothing pieces come in, there was a dress from Cue recently that had one but alas when I tried it on, it wasn't all that flattering. Maybe that's why they've remained in hiding.
