We Love Vintage Fashion
Posted February 17, 2012
Vintage was one of those trends that emerged on the fashion scene and just never died away again and with good reason – what could be more authentic than original styles from bygone and some may even suggest better eras? Iconic styles from the 60’s and 70’s especially feel fresh and relevant all over again, whilst the neon excess of the 80’s and even the pin-up or rock-a-billy chic of the 50’s have received a similar badge of honour in recent years. Especially with many brands of all sizes inspired by and reproducing styles from these iconic periods of fashion.
For those seeking something a little more unique, boutiques such as We Love Vintage who work with ASOS.com to offer unique vintage clothing are the ideal destinations for internet savvy shoppers who are tired of wading through musty boxes at markets. Read on to see how you can grab 15% off must have fashion items from this boutique.
Spring/Summer 2012 is going to see a strong resurgence of the bold bright colours, big blocky prints and contrasting patterns of the late 80’s/early 90’s. Think Fresh Prince of Bel Air meets Saved By The Bell with a late 80’s surf/skate vibe and a hint of African and ethnic influence in the prints. There will be a move towards relaxed tailoring for men again and we will see a boom in jumpsuits for women in both casual and dressy styles.
If the first 80’s revival was all about neon leg warmers, headbands and spandex that often bordered on parody then this second revival will be the one to realistically encapsulate fashion trends from that decade. In addition to this, the 70’s and 60’s revival will continue straying further into women’s wardrobes and men’s smart casual wear with chinos already vying for trouser choice of the year.
The great thing about vintage influences creeping into current fashion is; if you shop around and know where to look – you’ll be able to buy original and put together a look that is 100% your own. No one wants to walk into a party and see someone else in the same mass produced hot-pink zebraprint slouch top, do they? So aim to wear authentic pieces this coming season.
