Fashion Trends: Fifties Style
handbag fairy | March 16, 2012 | 0 Comments
This spring, British high streets have gone back in time to re-create the fifties fashion suitable for our modern era.  Women of the fifties were broadening their style and how they wanted to look and feel each day. Many high street shops have embraced their style and have been inspired to help women feel and look sensational with this exciting new trend.

Topshop offers a “50’s diner” collection with nude colour tops, mini lantern style skirts and comfortable yet ever so stylish matching footwear.







Topshop fifties style dress
This stunning white sleeveless dress is suitable to wear out this spring. The crotched pattern adds the little detail it needs to look beautiful on any woman who wants to bring back the fifties fashion this year. The light casual fabric allows you to accessorize and experiment with different colours, and you could wear it with kitten heels or flats.






River Island Fifties Crop Top
River Island has taken a different approach by incorporating polka dots, a leading fashion trend in the 1950s, into their range. A young and beautiful Elizabeth Taylor started wearing this style in the late 1940s, and it soon became a hit with young women wearing bathing suits, skirts and dresses covered in polka dots.

This cute crop top is perfect for the warm spring days leading to summer. Its simple black and white polka dot style would make you stand out from the crowd, wearing it with a mid length or full length skirt to really bring back the fifties style.




H&M fifties style dress
This season H&M has pushed their style boundaries on bringing back fifties patterns with this gorgeous, short and flattering dress for everyone. The neckline is low enough to not feel tight in this dress, yet would look good with a matching long necklace. The pattern differs from any other on the high street, as this dress has another matching pattern on the back.

Perfect for fashionable women who want to cover up a little this spring, and you could wear with comfortable wedge styled shoes.
