A 1940’s-50s inspired pair of slacks with the same fit you’ve come to expect from a classic pair of slacks from us - high waist and straight legs, but this time with a new detail from classic menswear: The side-adjuster! It’s a buckle that lets you tighten the waistband slightly for a better fit.
Furthermore you get slanted side pockets and decorative pocket flaps on the back, which is very flattering on the bum.

Inspired by a 1940’s short sleeved knit top worn in the movie JoJo Rabbit, Emmy created a knit top for our AW23 collection, The Technicolor Dream Tee. Now it’s here in a summer edition, knitted in the same stripey pattern, but with a square neckline and knitted in a soft cotton and cashmere blend.
The quality and color combos and carefully curated to match the rest of the collection and will also easily slide into your existing wardrobe – be it spring or autumn.

Why let perfectly good fabric go to waste when it can be turned into one of our timeless skirt designs! When the great minds of the Emmy Design team get together to discuss leftover fabrics and buttons, magic like this can happen!

The timeless A-line skirt is one of those foundation pieces that really works with everything and can be dressed up or down to suit any occasion.
The fixed waistband has belt loops so that you can personalize it with your favorite belt. The skirt zips up the back with a securing button at the waistband. And best of all - pockets in the side seams, large enough to accommodate your phone!

Red Swedish farmhouses, soft meadows under the sun, picking strawberries, hanging the laundry in the fresh air –pretty much the vibe of this dress!
Inspired by a dress made and worn by Lisa and Emmy’s mom in the 1970’s -originally a red Christmas dress- this summer dress can be easily styled Edwardian, 1940’s or 1970’s -all depending on your accessories. Unlike the Christmas dress, this version is made for you to be able to wear without a blouse under, so the fitted bodice is closed in the sides even if it still has apron dress vibes.
The heart shaped neckline and ruffles on the shoulders make for a very flattering and feminine dress –of course with phone sized pockets!

Here’s an elegant blouse with ¾ sleeves, great for office wear in the warmer months. It’s inspired by Edwardian fashion but works really well with a pair of jeans too. The puff sleeves and gathered yokes make room for the bust and for movement and the darts at the waist ensure a feminine silhouette.
You can add a tie under the club collar for a formal look or wear it open collared if you prefer. Either way it’s a breezy shirt for warm office days when you need your business outfit but also need to keep cool.

Imagine your favorite 1940s or 50s movie star, lounging in her changing room between takes: Don’t you just see her in this shirt and a pair of wide legged pants? Now we can all channel her style in this classic, short sleeved shirt.
The pointy collar, darts at the waist and yoke with gatherings are trademarks of that era and the result is a wardrobe staple! Wear it with your favorite pants or a pencil skirt for that sassy secretary look.

A clear art deco vibe with practical touches such as phone deep pockets and kick pleats front and back for better movement, this skirt will be your new favorite. Elegant and comfortable and easy to dress up or down.

This skirt is made in the same fabric as our SS23 ‘Titanic’ set, so you can match it to your Just Right Jacket and make a beautiful suit!

Inspired by the 1930s and 40s, these culottes bring us all the summer vibes! Comfy and practical while adding some timeless chicness to an outfit, it’s a clear win!
They of course have pockets –slanted side seam ones, deep enough for your phone as well as flattering patch pockets on the back. The drapey and breezy fabrics swirl nicely around the legs and the culottes close with a zipper and button in the back.

Emmy found a 1950s swimsuit in Paris and has been wearing it as a top with flowy skirts ever since –so it seemed like the perfect idea to base a new knit top on it!
The result is what you see here: A short sleeved knit top in lightweight wool with a boat neck front and V-neck back. And don’t worry, the V-neck doesn’t let your bra show.
We picked classic French colors -and the stripes, of course, like the timeless French Breton shirts!
Even the solid colorways have stripes because it’s knitted with textured stripes.

This garment is sold exclusively at emmydesign.se.

Always looking for those vintage style pieces that you can wear every day? This shirt was made for that. Inspired by the practical, yet feminine work wear of the 1940’s, it is a garment that can be worn with any of your favorite skirts or pants –and even if it’s 40’s inspired, who said you couldn’t wear it with a pair of flared pants for an ultimate 1970’s outfit!

City chic shorts -not too long, not too short, comfortable and classy, these shorts will be your new best summer friend! We know you’ve loved our Side Adjuster Slacks so what would be better than turning them into shorts!
With their high waist, straight legs and slanted side pockets they’re a great companion for tops and shirts in a 1940’s style or for a mom-chic 1980s look too.

The cuff can be easily let down if you prefer a longer version or taken up for a little more 1940s movie star look.

For this season we’ve widened the waistband to put more emphasis on the waist, but kept all the great features of the pants, like the pocket flaps on the back, placed to flatter the bum. The side adjuster itself is well known from classic men’s wear and is a brilliant feature for a vintagey look.
