A mixed era vintage hen party near Reading, 1920s and 1940s

Here’s a vintage hair and make up hen party with a difference. We had a simply super time with this group of hens who had a vintage makeover and photoshoot with vintage afternoon tea and vintage dress hire at a lovely National Trust property near Reading. We actually have a fantastic new venue where you can have an experience similar to this one – a luxury country  house rental perfect for a vintage hen party near Reading.

A 1920s and 1940s hen party

They couldn’t decide on one era, so some hens went 1920s and other went 1940s. It made for a lot of nice outfits, some lovely hair and make up styles and a fun brief for our vintage dressing up expert as they booked our vintage dress hire service too, with vintage dress expert Ali from Frock n Roll.

From forties glamour girl to 1940s wartime costumes, land girls and housewife, from Roaring Twenties moll and jazz age flapper to Downton Abbey heiress to Bright Young Thing, what I love about this hen party was the range of looks the hair and make up artists managed to create to go with each outfit.

Here are some more of the lovely 1940s hairstyles and make up. I am so proud of the hair and make up artists we work with! They are so quick and clever. The ladies enjoyed a lovely vintage style afternoon tea during their makeover and photoshoot.

Here are some of the wonderful 1920s hairstyles and make up.
