Portia Pin-up Dress

There is no denying that pin-up style dresses have made a strong comeback. It used to be limited to a small selection of women of somewhat like goth was but pin-up looks have been bleeding heavily into mainstream dressing especially this last year including plus size fashion. There are a number of specialty shops that have been offering strictly pinup designs for years but other designers and shops are offering them as well. Kiyonna has a cute little number called Portia which comes in two patterns options.
The somewhat traditional flower print:

And the edgy animal print:
Plus size animal print pin-u- dress from Kiyonna.
I was attracted to the floral print first but the animal print is really growing on me especially with the contrasting red strip. The plus size portia dresses are available in sizes 10 to 32 for $128. Kiyonna ships internationally. You can save 15% off orders of $150 or more with the code BLOOM.
