Trends. Seventies Romance for Resortwear?
According to WWD, "Romantic details such as lace, ruffles and pleating are everywhere throughout resort collections, often with a touch of the Seventies." Feminine design with retro flair... that sounds doable, high-end or on a budget! Here are some looks they offer for inspiration.
Collette Dinnigan's cotton lace dress. Eugenia Kim hat. Leather Island Vintage Classic belt. Calleen Cordero boots.
Temperley London’s silk dress. Riser Goodwyn belt. Erickson Beamon bracelet.
Guy Baxter’s raw silk vest. Graydn’s cotton and silk blouse. Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent’s cotton satin shorts. Cole Haan booties.
