Facing the eighties in style
Posted Jul 13, 2010
Night colours turn into a celebration of the 80s, as seen on Carrie Bradshaw in Sex in the City 2, pink is not just about candy, nor is lace a romantic asset. The game is on, when we have a mixture of the right-bright colours, the fabric (be it lace, leather or le satin), sequins, black gives the right stage for everything. Even when sporting a t-shirt that screams: whose 80s face are we wearing? So glam.
Absolutely delicious non-transparencies playing with two colours that exhale secrecy and sophistication at the same time. Shoes, bags, background. Take black to the next step.
The 80s were all about funky details. So what should we add now? A rosette seems appropriate, as are sequined trousers. Take center stage, an evening attire with a fun spirit, a bit coquette.
Advertising campaigns printed on t-shirts. A declaration of love to an era? A celebration of what cool is: wearing something different, fun, but never inappropriate.
