Our Favorite Vintage Fashion Icons

Everyone can remember that nostalgic feeling you get while watching Audrey Hepburn dressed as Holly Golightly strolling down Fifth Avenue in the early morning while the solemn notes of “Moon River” play in the background. Between the oversized Ray Ban sunglasses, huge pearl necklace, and iconic black dress, there was so much fashion to love from  Breakfast at Tiffany’s. And as designer Hubert Givenchy dressed Audrey Hepburn during the majority of her film career, it is no surprise that Audrey became the fashion icon that she still is today. So many wonderful women from the past have inspired the way we dress today. Today we’ll be sharing some of our favorite vintage fashion icons and how you can achieve their iconic looks.

A Look at “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination”

Walking into the Medieval and Byzantine Art area of the Met feels as if you are walking into an old monumental church. Crowds solemnly look up at the raised platforms of glittering Dolce & Gabbana and Versace garments like saints coming down from heaven. The overall exhibition is incredibly dramatic, featuring many show-stopping looks from designers like Jean-Paul Gaultier and Christian Lacroix. The entire vibe is almost eerie, with the sounds of church organ music that plays as you walk through the various areas.
