Why is vintage fashion still in?
Cuts from the 50's - 60's are returning to fashion primarily because they looked very feminine. Dresses with a narrow waist, a wider skirt, cheerful colours, patterns and colour combinations are just typical of the vintage style. While in the 1940s costumes in neutral colours prevailed in fashion, the following fifties lit up women's wardrobes. The stars from the cinema screen, who presented such a new trend, also helped to promote this trend.
Typical elements of vintage dresses:
- knee length
- narrow highlighted band
- wider skirt - mostly round
- collar or boat neckline
- dots - larger and smaller in strong combinations
- one-colour models with contrasting band
- patterns - diamonds, flowers, stripes
- cheerful colours - red, yellow, purple, blue, green and pastel colours
