Many people say the second time around is better than the first. This is proven to be true with vintage clothing. People are always looking for something different from mainstream designs. Something that is unique. It is then up to designers to dust off previous trends and bring them back to life, but ensuring they are distinct.
Designers like Lanvin, Louis Vuitton, and Orley redesigned the classic bowler shirt to be fashionable and desirable. By styling the shirts with tailored trousers and clean-shaven models, this timeless shirt has been reinvented into something new.
Styling plays a huge role with bringing back retro trends. Alexander McQueen and Prada took wide collared shirts and paired them with white lined blazers. Marni also used a wide collared oxford and integrated it with an intricate pattern and an impeccably fitted blazer.
Marc Jacobs even brought back wide leg plaid trousers, which are perfect for all occasions.
Lastly, Iceberg, Carven, and Au Jour Le Jour also brought back the beloved suede jacket with large pockets and hints of leather trimmings.
So if you desire to go back in time, pack a piece or two from these designers.
