She’s Dynamite! is a United Kingdom-based handmade retro clothing shop owned and operated by Stephanie, who hand makes and designs each piece offered in the online store. Her personal style ranges from a 1940s pin up diva to sassy rock ‘n roll queen, and after years of wearing her handmade threads through the streets of England and receiving countless comments and requests for custom pieces, she decided to start her own line of pin up, retro, and rockabilly-inspired clothing.
The most popular items sold at She’s Dynamite! are the funky retro dresses. The styles are familiar for many women, with fitted pencil skirts, plunging necklines, and sassy halters tied around the neck. Some of the prints include red and white polka dots, “Monster Wiggle” for a creepy fun look, “Hawaiian Waterfall” for a hot look to wear to a summer barbecue or picnic, and “Leopard Wiggle” for those days you’re feeling extra fierce and want to stand out from the crowd.
If you’d rather mix and match some separates, there are some cute pin up tops available at She’s Dynamite! too. The zebra top pairs perfectly with a pencil skirt, the Candy Striper Top offers bold contrasting stripes, and the Polka Peplum Halter Top shows off a bit of cleavage with ruffled accents.
All of these pair well with the Wiggle Skirt, a knee-length pencil skirt available in red or black that can be dressed up or down.
Each of these versatile pieces available at She’s Dynamite! are handmade and available in custom sizes if you want to make sure it fits your measurements just right.
