Aurora Princess Castle Print Dress at Deadly - official UK stockists of Pin Up Girl Clothing

We were lucky enough to have a few of the Aurora Fairytale Castle Print dresses in stock a couple of weeks ago and after posting them on the Deadly Facebook page they sold out faster than any dress we have ever had!

They are from a Pinup Couture Limited Capsule Collection so we didn't think we could get any more - then, as if by magic, more have arrived!

I couldn't resist trying one on this time and boy oh boy do I wish I hadn't - now I really want one all for myself!



I've styled the dress with black kitty sunglassses (£10), Exotic Pink Besame lipstick (£22), a blue chiffon scarf (£10), blue velvet vintage evening bag (£70), black chiffon petticoat (£60) and blue cutiepie Pinup Couture shoes (£50). 
The belt comes with the Aurora dress (£120) & is perfect for cinching in your waist!



We are so very proud to be official UK stockists of Pinup Couture - the quality and their determination to continually bring something bigger and better without straying from their vintage style roots is inspirational... And frankly, their clothes are to die for!

Thanks to Lauren for snapping some photos & to Gomez for posing with me - I really do love my job so!

Deadly in the Mail on Sunday & Mail Online thanks to Nigella Lawson and our Red Wiggle Dress!

Last week Deadly owner Claudia was interviewed by Angella Johnson about Nigella's Red Wiggle Dress for the Mail on Sunday and some of their conversation has been included in articles in the Mail on Sunday (27th Jan 2013) and on the Mail Online!

The article is full of praise for Nigella and our little red dress!

"The scarlet design evoked the most glamorous aspects of Fifties fashion – and immediately invited comparisons with Marilyn Monroe’s style and traffic-stopping curves."

"Classic curves: Nigella Lawson's hourglass figure was enhanced thanks to this figure-hugging frock"


We are so pleased Susanna Constantine of Trinny and Susanna talks about the dress in the article too. She is quoted as saying

"Nigella looks stunning. This dress does everything to show off her luscious figure without falling into the trap of trash. It’s not like she has laid out her wares, yet we know she is all woman. Curvy women must honour their bodies by showing them off like this."

Not bad for a tiny West Country store hey?!

Lots of you have been busy buying your very own Deadly Red Wiggle Dresses so stock is starting to run low again... If you have fallen in love with this timeless look we recommend that you don't hang around!

We'll be getting more in early next month along with a black version. Also please be sure to take a look at our other fabulous fifties inspired dresses - we always select dresses which will help enhance your curves and make you feel (at least) a million dollars!

And don't forget you can keep up to date with stock levels, new items & all our gossip through our Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and by signing up to our newsletter!

New in - 50's Style Party dresses by Stop Staring!

We are really getting in the Festive spirit now here at Deadly is the Female. 

Yesterday Claudia dressed the Christmas Window while Lauren looked after all our lovely customers and unpacked 2 huge boxes of stunning Stop Staring Party Dresses!

First out of the box was the Femme Fatale dress in Faux Leather £175
Everyone loves a bad gal & this is one hell of a wiggle dress - cut to enhance your curves and ensure you turn plenty of heads. 


For a totally different look, may we introduce the Carolann dress - a elegant grey vintage style dress which can be worn in the day and then glammed up for the evening. £175


Next up is the Edie dress - we think this dress would be right at home on the set of Mad Men - we love its understated sex appeal and curve skimming fit!  £170


The Fortune dress is pure old fashioned Hollywood - from the fit of this striking wiggle dress to the shimmering platinum fabric - in this dress you are sure to knock them dead this party season.  £185


And last but by no means least we unpacked the Samantha dress - this is a little different for us as it is a knitted swing dress in black and white polka dots. It is so elegant and can be dressed right up with a petticoat underneath. £175

Don't forget we have lots of fabulous accessories to choose from - everything from limited edition Vivienne Westwood heels, twinkling jewellery, seamed hosiery, retro hair accessories, vintage inspired make up from Besame and oh so much more!

Besame Cosmetics Now available at Deadly is the Female

Click here to visit the Make Up Section of the website

We are so happy to announce that we are now suppliers of Besame Cosmetics from California USA both online and in store. Besame is a company which strives for beauty and glamour. The stunning vintage-style packaging is combined with very modern, all-natural formulas that both pamper skin and stay firmly put.

This fabulous range includes Compacts, Rouge, Eyeshadows, Pencils and of course lipsticks in a range or vintage inspired colours. These are the epitome of affordable glamour with prices from just £11.50 and the most glamorous packaging and attention to detail we have ever seen.

A true must have has to be Besames Classic Enchanting Lipstick. We currently stock 6 different shades of the highly pigmented lipsticks which are beautifully packaged in a little 1940's style bullet with the art deco inspired chrysanthemum logo.. The chiselled tip makes precise application easy as pie and the semi-matte formula gently moisturises your lips for log lasting impact. We also stock the velvety soft double ended lip liners which are great for enhancing your lip shape or wear them on their own for long lasting colour. You could also apply a touch of the darling Sweetheart Balm on top for a touch of gloss. These are great on their own for a hint of colour, moisture and a delicate flavour and the little glass and Bakelite pot is just to die for.

For the face we have that vintage classic - Boudoir Rouge! Packaged in little mirrored metal cases you'll be dying to retouch it throughout the day just to show it off! Maximum Hollywood glamour can be achieved with the refillable Cashmere Powder compact which has surprising good and long lasting coverage. The case itself is a work of art and even comes in a handbag friendly red velvet pouch.

For the eye there are the Alluring Eyeshadows in authentic vintage colours which don't crease and can be built up to the depth of colour you require. Finishing off the collection are the Masterliner eye pencils which are velvety soft, blend-able and come with 2 ends featuring complementary colour.

None of Besame's products are tested on animals and they are all natural so you can be sure they are as good for you as they look. They make truly fabulous gifts and are the ideal little pick me up when you need a little glamour hit!
