Why We Exist
In a world of fast fashion and fleeting trends, we noticed something missing: clothing that celebrates femininity without sacrificing comfort, quality that lasts beyond a season, and styles that tell a story. That’s why we created a sanctuary for women who appreciate both nostalgia and modern practicality in their wardrobe.
Our Signature Style
Our collection speaks to the woman who:
- Adores the twirl of a circle skirt but needs pockets for her smartphone
- Longs for the elegance of a halterneck dress but demands breathable fabrics
- Appreciates the structure of capri pants but insists on stretch for all-day wear
Quality Without Compromise
Each Button Betty Skirt and Gloria Dress is crafted from premium fabrics that maintain their shape and color wash after wash. Our attention to detail means you’ll find perfectly placed pockets, reinforced seams, and flattering fits.
Size-Inclusive Vintage
Unlike true vintage that often comes in limited sizes, our 1950s-inspired pieces are designed for real women’s bodies. From petite to plus-size, we believe every woman deserves to experience the joy of retro fashion.
Ethical Production
While we love the past, we’re committed to a better future. Our durable coats and circle skirts are produced in small batches to minimize waste, with fair wages at every step of production.
More Than a Shop – A Community
When you choose our Betty Sundress or Culottes, you’re joining a global community of women who value:
- Confidence that comes from wearing intentionally designed clothing
- Connection to fashion history with modern practicality
- Consciousness about investing in fewer, better pieces
From our Nashville studio to your wardrobe, we’re honored to help you express your unique style story. Welcome to the Chic Apparel family.
