The Style Under A Modern Lens
If you’re not all that much of a fan of vintage style dresses, there’s no need to fret. The trending style might make dramatic appearances, but that doesn’t mean its modern versions don’t exist. So if you try to resist all of the historical throw backs, you can still participate in the style in your own way. And regardless of what you’re used to, we’re sure you’ll be pleasantly surprised with the popular and hidden gem option available.
The OSCAR DELA RENTA Multicolor Boucle Tweed Mini Dress is a great introductory dress to start with. Simple, yet obvious in its vintage influenced texture, you might just be surprised at how put-together you’ll appear. Similarly, the ET OCHS Cape-effect Cutout Ruched Stretch-piqué Gown makes an elegant twist on the definition of vintage. Although the industry might present the style as such, you can really do anything with vintage style dresses—there’s a piece for everyone’s taste. In the end, that’s what’s most important.
