I love that pink bow bustle, not sure if the chair was this shade of green originally, the shade bothers me. #cubism #surrealism #schiaparelli #bustleback #1940sfashion #headdress #horstphorst #dinnersuit #colourblocking #chic #palmbeachvintage #antiquerowwpb https://www.instagram.com/p/CAijOydpmHh/?igshid=1b4ul3wi21mdm

When Cadillac made bold choices.

That’ll wow ‘em in Palm Springs.  It’s a bustleback Cadillac Seville, from the ‘80-’85 second-gen, that’s been blacked-out and given something of a Mad Max vibe.

Aside from the Continental Mark coupes (MkII thru MkV), Lincolns had only come in one size after WW2: #landyacht. When Cadillac launched the “newer, smaller” Seville in 1975, it had to respond. Lincoln’s first effort was the hastily-prepared Versailles, heavily (and obviously) based on the Ford Granada/Mercury Monarch, didn’t do too well, and Lincoln was caught out again in late 1979 by the dramatic “Bustleback” Mk2 Seville. - With it’s stylistic origins Hooper-bodied 1950s Rolls-Royces, the sloping rear of the Seville made for poor cargo room, but got lots of attention (good and bad). Lincoln dropped the slow-selling Versailles in 1980 and set about designing another “small” Lincoln to battle the Seville, but this time with less obvious connections to Ford and Mercury sedans. The result was the 1982 Lincoln #Continental - a confusing choice as the name was concurrently applied to the big Continental MKVI sedan and coupe. - The new “little” #Lincoln rode Ford’s ubiquitous rwd #Fox platform, but aside from the relatively narrow width of the car - the narrowest and smallest Lincoln ever made up to that time - the connection was not cosmetically obvious.  #Ford aped the sloping “bustleback” of the Seville (and the ’81-’83 Chrysler Imperial) directly, but of the three the Lincoln had the most room and was the most practical. - The #Bustleback came a bit too late - #Neoclassic touches were chic in the 70s, but gave way to the “aero look” in the 80s. The little Conti struggled to sell, only hitting 30,000 units a year once, in 1984 when it was given an “aero” front end refresh. The 302 V8 was standard, but Lincoln’s first V6, a rarely-seen 3.8, was offered in 1982 as a no-cost option, and there was a Diesel (a BMW unit shared with the 524TD) option for ’84-’85. - Aside from the troublesome air suspension, the Fox Continentals were durable and comfy, and all the performance parts for Fox Mustangs could be applied, though that only happened later in the car’s lives - Contis tended to sell to an older crowd when new. The Bustle gave way to a lozenge-shaped, Taurus-based fwd version for 1988. - A high number survive, though this poor guy’s been off the road since 2003.

1950 Chevrolet Fleetline Deluxe Fastback Automatic

Styleline models were once again named 1950 Chevrolet Fleetline Deluxe Fastback Automatic models in the "Bustleback" cars that had separate trunks. This line included the station wagon and convertible models. There were also two- and four-door "fastbacks" Fleetline models. Although the fastbacks looked sportier, they were less visible from the rear. They soon lost popularity in the forward-looking 1950s due to their prewar style. The Chevrolet fastback design would disappear by the 1960s.
