Loving Peter Pan Collars


Some of you may feel the same as I do. I just adore peter pan collars. I love them on dresses, blouses, and cardigans. I love how it gives a youthful yet stylish look to a piece of clothing and to the person who wears them. They are cute but not too cute where you look like you are a little girl. Although vintage Peter Pan collared pieces are hard to find, you can find some pieces that are retro.

Take a peek at these lovelies:

  4. I have a few dresses with Peter Pan Colar but they are not my favorites, if you don't wear special bra to give a high bust line, I feel like my breast is at my waist level... What I think that don't fit curvy girls is round colar, I like V line the most.

  5. I don't have any yet, but I do love the look of them. I purchased some lace collars off ebay and am planning on adding them to some things (now only to decide what will get them). There are quite a few necklines that I think are great and I want to try out. The shawl collar looks great on vintage dresses like this one http://www.pinterest.com/pin/83879611779312346/

  6. I actually have yet to get a Peter Pan collar dress. They always very much appeal to me. I'd love to make one. The first blue dress is just amazing!

  7. I love that polka dot one. I'm going to pin it for inspiration for this year! (Yes, I love the way they look ;) )

  8. Peter Pan collars are one of those fashion elements that I absolutely love, own a few of, yet almost never wear. If you ask me why that is, I'd honestly have to shrug my shoulders. Other than the fact that sometimes garments that are buttoned all the way up like that aren't overly flattering on me (it depends on multiple factors for a given piece though, sometimes they look alright), I can't think of a single reason. They really are darling things, so I must aim to sport mine more often in 2014.

  10. I love peter pan collars! I have a blouse or two with them but no dresses. These that you have found are gorgeous! My favorite is the 3rd one down, the reddish orange dress with the white cuffs. So cute!
