I love polka dots! They make me happy, they make me smile. When you see a polka dot pattern you just know that it's going to be fun!
So I went looking into the history of polka dots.......
The origin derives from the Czech "Polka" dance in the 1800's. The polka dot pattern was born and has thrived through the centuries.
Memorable polka dot appearances include:
Marilyn Monroe and Lucille Ball wore polka dots in the 50's
Twiggy and Goldie Hawn made them popular in the 60's
Princess Diana and Julia Roberts donned polka dots in the 80's & 90's
and polka dots are still alive today!
I'm currently working on some old hollywood glam designs and I can't help but include polka dots, small and large bold dots! Polka dots add an eclectic flavor.
