Classic Returns

Feminine facets that trend to spring

Author: Long Island Pulse | Published: Tuesday, February 28, 2012

Above: Give your feathered frock a spring revival by pairing it with a tank top or bodysuit to create a flirty look that is lighter than air yet oh-so chic. Haute Hippie feather skirt, Camilla and Marc net bodysuit, Agent Provocateur bra, Jenny Dayco knot necklace, and CC Skye bird wing rings.

The style of the 1920s is one of the most influential in fashion—no closet is complete without the glamour of jazz. Unsigned sequined bodysuit, Loriblu shoes and CC Skye earrings are the basis of a look that brings the flash and rebellion of that era to everything from jeans to tuxedo slacks.

Bold jewelry and enticing shoulder details will bring new flair to your little black favorite. Dark, moody lips complete the thought and flatter this season’s natural brow lines. Nicole Miller dress, CC Skye earrings, bracelet and Landver ring.

Black and white is a classic couple that has stood the test of time, but black and beige may be a force to be reckoned with. When joined unpredictably, the look created is confident and bold. Especially when revealed by a gauzy, feminine silhouette broken by an impossibly high slit. BCBG gown, Jeremy Scott shoes and Jenny Dayco bracelet.

Gold accents are just one element to update a vintage look. Select muted metals, monochromatic styling (blacks paired with neutrals) and vampy lips to punctuate an iconic image. BCBG Max Azria dress, CC Skye necklace and ring, and Hollywood Hatters custom headband.

Although usually reserved for bulky sweaters, heavy rope necklaces can be worn with a strapless top to balance your transition into spring. Embellishments like short gloves reveal just the right amount of skin when paired with short sleeve jackets, and playful hats nod to the warming weather yet to come. Camilla and Marc swimsuit, Hue fishnets, CC Skye necklace, and Sermoneta black and white gloves.

Antique components seem like trends of the season when complemented with modern day accessories. This gown is the hallmark of classic, but made new with an elaborate necklace. Together, they create a visual plate that is both sensual and strong. Ella Zahlan dress, Jenny Dayco necklace.

Complete two contrasting looks from different eras to create an ensemble that is whimsical and unique. The intimacy and restriction of a midnight satin corset paired with girly cotton candy tulle skirt recall a lady’s most feminine qualities. Lee Klabin bustier, Camilla and Marc tulle skirt, CC Skye necklace, MRE Jewelry ring and Capezio shoes.
