Na+H clothing
yes please. all of this.
Polka dots have been a firm favourite with girls for well over 100 years. Perhaps it’s because they are so versatile, in a spotty frock you can be anything from a ravishing rockabilly chick to a demure Fifties poppet, and everything in between!
Our 1950s style polka dot swing dresses are beloved by everyone from vintage and burlesque girls to curvy celebrities like Charlotte Church and Nigella Lawson… they get more column inches than any of our other styles! We’re sure it’s got rather a lot to do with the wonderfully flattering cut, thanks to the boned bodice, tightly nipped waist and full circle skirt that combine to create a killer hourglass silhouette that supports, cinches and disguises in all the right places. With such a wide array of colours on offer, we’re surprised you’ve resisted long enough to read this far…!
We are totally committed to quality. Our polka dot retro circle dresses are made from 100% crisp cotton and easy-care cotton sateen fabrics, and everything is created right here in London.
I’ve become addicted to the Vivian of Holloway site and I’m really drawn to their halterneck polka dot dresses. I love the bright blue version but there’s also a black one with pink dots I’m very drawn to.

“Our house was small, and when you grow up with domestic violence in a confined space you learn to gauge, very precisely, the temperature of situations. I knew exactly when the shouting was done and a hand was about to be raised – I also knew exactly when to insert a small body between the fist and her face, a skill no child should ever have to learn. Curiously, I never felt fear for myself and he never struck me, an odd moral imposition that would not allow him to strike a child. The situation was barely tolerable: I witnessed terrible things, which I knew were wrong, but there was nowhere to go for help. Worse, there were those who condoned the abuse. I heard police or ambulancemen, standing in our house, say, “She must have provoked him,” or, “Mrs Stewart, it takes two to make a fight.” They had no idea. The truth is my mother did nothing to deserve the violence she endured. She did not provoke my father, and even if she had, violence is an unacceptable way of dealing with conflict. Violence is a choice a man makes and he alone is responsible for it.”
