• -Art-Inspired pieces, Lace, Bow Tie Tops, Furs, Flapper dresses, lots of Sequins, Two-toned fabric, over-sized safari hats and oversized triangular or square shaped sunglasses

 

During your outfit selection, do keep in mind that this season’s latest trend emulates that of the past meaning that classic staple items should not be replaced, but rather enhanced with additions such as bows, ruffles, lace etc. We’d never suggest that you go out and buy an entire new wardrobe, simply refreshing and upgrading your look with fresh bits and pieces of what this season has to offer.

This season there are no limitations. Anything from length, fabrics and levels of formality were experimented with. It was almost a a requirement for each fashion show to feature at least one outfit consisting of sheer, chiffon, lace, sequin, three piece/androgynous suits, shirt dresses and oversize hats.  When listing their inspirations for the season, several designers mentioned Amelia Earhart. the Roaring 20's and the garconne-esque era when women were glamorous and rebellious at the same time.

The roaring and rebellious 20’s are back meaning that flapper dresses, sequined looks, boas, and androgynous looks pass the test.  Be bold, dive in and spice up your daily rotation with poufy skirts, balloon sleeves, nautical jackets, tuxedo collars, mini dresses, long tunics, skinny leggings, sheer leggings, shirt dresses metallics, pewter/gray threads, high waist and ultra wide-leg trousers, androgynous suits, textured or art inspired knits, over sized bows, ballerina flats, or tribal, safari or animal prints. Wear your looks in confidence and always remember to wear the clothes and don't let the clothes wear you! You are now officially updated and certified by The Fashion Reporter.

Fashionably yours,
