Vintage Week: How To Style Vintage Part Two | 1970s Yellow Wrap Dress
Day Ii of Vintage Calendar week at Not Dressed As Lamb and today it's the 1970s!
This week I'1000 sharing outfits I've styled effectually vintage pieces, ending at the weekend with a mail service sharing Top Tips for Buying & Styling Vintage and an interview with the possessor of my sponsor Scarlet Vintage in Bath. (To run across how I styled a 1950s patterned silk shirt, run into my final postal service here.)
Scarlet Vintage have kindly loaned me several pieces to style, including this 1970s wrap dress – very reminiscent of the 1976 movie Network with the gorgeous Faye Dunaway. Basically you can't beat a classic wrap dress (so Diane von Fürstenberg would have us believe!), so really this was an easy slice to create an outfit circular. I've shown in the pictures what the attached belt that comes with it looks like, but I decided to add a wide black belt for a fleck of dial and define my waist. Fierce leopard heels and a black camisole (for modesty) add to the stiff accessorising and assistance pull the outfit together.
(If y'all're interested in buying this dress, email enquiries(at)scarletvintage.co.united kingdom of great britain and northern ireland or tweet @scarletvintage and mention Not Dressed As Lamb)
As mentioned in the Day One outfit, pairing a vintage piece from a particular decade will look less "costumey" if you wear it with either very contemporary items (boxy crossover torso bag, leopard heels and geometric blazer) or items that echo another period/decade altogether. Though I do think this dress is so archetype you could become the total 1970s look and wear information technology with a floppy hat and knee-high mesomorphic heeled boots (similar these ones – which, by the way, are the most comfy boots always); I recall that would be a fabulous await.
Outfit three will be on Friday, and this fourth dimension the piece I'm wearing is from the 1940s (over 70 years onetime)!!!
Am I convincing any vintage sceptics that it's easier to fashion than you may think? Let me know!
