In Spring 2013, Bettie Page hosted a 'Bring it Back' contest, encouraging Vintage clothing fans all over the world to submit their favorite vintage photos featuring their loved ones and their dresses. Bettie Page's Spring 2014 features the winning dresses and they're in stock now at Atom Retro.

The Marie Dress

A pretty red dress inspired by a 1950s original - with flared skirt, retro oversized collar and sleeves and cute vintage look button decoration down the front.

The Jeannie Dress 

Inspired by a photograph from 1960, this 50s vintage inspired dress in light blue is perfect for Summer! With full circle skirt and gorgeous collar detail this dress is a real show stopper.

The Shirlee Tegge Dress

Shirlee Tegge was the first Miss USA, crowned in 1949 - except they didn't actually have a crown back then! This pretty green floral dress was inspired by the original dress worn by Shirlee Tegge when she won.

The Loretta Dress 

1950/60s style wiggle dress inspired by a dress owned by the mother of the four daughters who submitted it. This is a classic, timeless dress featuring asymmetrical contrast and neckline looks like it could be part of a modern collection!

Baracuta Trench Coat
The Baracuta Spring 2014 collection is now online at Atom Retro. Featuring new fresh spring colours in G9 and G4, this seasons collection also comprises a new trench coat in three colours, plus limited edition G9 jackets in suede and oiled leather.

The classic G9 is available in limited edition colours corn yellow and Mc Queens Stone, plus the G4 is available in spring colours, light blue and corn. Additionally, for the budget conscious mod, the G9 Original Garment Dyed jacket is back in new colours faded black, dark red and electric blue - all essential colours!

The new Baracuta trench coat is already proving to be a must-have item. Harking back to Baracuta's roots as a raincoat and outerwear manufacturer, the water resistant coated cotton trench is modeled on the famous G9 design - featuring harrington style button flap pockets, concealed button fasten, button tabs to cuffs, raglan sleeves and the iconic 'umbrella' style vented back. Available in 3 colours - Dark Navy, Tan and Navy, the coat is very light in construction, making it perfect for summer wear. Take your Baracuta trench coat with you and don't get caught out in the inevitable summer rain!

Another exciting highlight is the re-launch of the Baracuta G9 for women this season. Already online in classic red, Atom Retro is one of the few websites to stock the women's Baracuta harrington. All the essential Baracuta G9 features are here - for the mod girl who must have the authentic, original harrington!
