From the iconic Jackie O to the hit show Mad Men, the ladylike long fuller skirts and feminine silhouettes of the late 50′s and early 60′s are back with a vengeance this fall.
I know, I know, many of you may perceive ladylike to mean stiff and too formal. In some cases that may be true, but this fall look for longer skirts with great tailoring, sheath dresses with darts, pintucks and folds (to gracefully accentuate the female form) and kitten heels with trapezoid handbags. This look may feel hard to incorporate to some of us, but pairing some traditional 60′s ladylike chic pieces, such as a shin length full skirt, with a sexy feminine top, like a black cashmere turtleneck will definitely draw attention. Keep this trend modern by the use of accessories and prints this season. Tights, classic ornate jewelry (think gold +pearls) and functional knits are also defining factors in the 60′s ladylike chic trend. I suggest adding at least one of each essential piece to your wardrobe at a time. This means buy at least 1 shin length full skirt, 1 sheath dress, 1 pair of kitten heels and 1 wide waist-cinching belt to your wardrobe this fall!
