Since seeing Carla Heiney and a few other ladies rocking out Stop Staring’s new “Raileen” dress at this year’s Rock That Swing Festival in Munich, I thought it was time we revisited Stop Staring Clothing, and it was worth it! They’ve always been a staple of retro dresses for swing ladies, but recent seasons have seen the addition of some really glamorous dresses, in the range of $100 – $150 USD.
