Retro Looks In The Modern World: Miu Miu Fall 2011

As much as the modern fashion world looks forward it also continually looks back in time. Here we explore Retro Looks in the Modern World.

Miu Miu sent 1940 looks down her latest runway for Fall 2011. Broad heavily padded shoulders and narrow skirts. I loved the angled lines mixed with soft furs, the large coin purses and the sunglasses.

Here are my favorites:

If you are at all familiar with my designs you know I gravitate towards satins and lace. The Fall 2010 collection from Dolce & Gabbana was full of inspiring looks in that vain. I absolutely loved their collection!

I really want this bold flower print coat! So pretty!

Retro Looks From Milan: Dolce & Gabbana

Dolce & Gabbana's Fall 2009 RTW collection was a lot of fun and showed a lot of retro 40's and 50's inspired pieces. Some quite literal like the 50's style prom gown with Marilyn Monroe's image silkscreened all over the poufy skirt. And other's with a twist that would make Elsa Schiaparelli proud, like the gloves used as scarves and belts. My favorite is the top picture! Glam!

Retro Looks From Milan: Moschino

Moschino never let's me down. The Fall 2009 RTW collection has my heart a flutter. The retro inspired looks are flattering and feminine. I love the rolled bangs, patterned tights, and Mary Jane shoes. Pictured above are my favorite looks. Delicious!
