WHAT'S NEW IN RETRO?

    Feathers. Cocktail hats with veils. Long strands of pearls. Opera gloves.

    This simple cut velvet gown with just the right accessories instantly becomes retro.


    The veil of this hat easily becomes a shoulder drape.

    Once this whole look is pulled together it can be reminiscent of pre-1920s as well as 1930s Hollywood.
