for bridesmaids its better to wear three piece suits of 50's design and with a bow, this will definitely give them 50's look with black oxford shoes.they will definitely look from 50's and smart also.

Vivian Holloway does a lot of 40s and 50s style clothes, not hugely authentic but some lovely big skirts!

It depends what you are looking for. Etsy, eBay and even amazon have some gorgeous 50's style dresses that I have been looking at for my bridesmaids. But really just have a google there is loads out there.

I made the bridesmaids dresses last year for my daughter's wedding using a 1958 pattern and a floral fabric. Pretty easy and very successful.

Tiger Milly is really nice, and not even wildly expensive Smile. Fancy a net skirt?

Hell bunny dresses might be good. They sell them online at aspirestyle.com

Thanks for all these suggestions. I was looking for one of a very particular design, but not a halterneck or strappy which most of them are. Also need sizes 22, 10 and 14 and something that fits my colour scheme. I found all these sites and many more an deventually found someone on etsy to make them for me!
