Versace Spring 2020
If there is one takeaway from this entire Fashion Month, it is that retro is going to be the flavor of spring 2020! In last week’s Look Book post “80s Inspiration & Structured Sleeves“, I keyed in on this fashion concept. Although a lot of these looks will be a hot and heavy trend for spring 2020, I have seen hints of it even now in the fall. The most important fashion trend for spring 2020 will be structured shoulders. This is influenced by a mixture of time eras like the Victorian era, the 40s, and the 80s.

Carolina Herrera Spring 2020
It is officially Fashion Month! Which means there will be plenty of brand new and exciting Runway Reviews coming your way!

Today I am starting an exciting new series that I am calling “Designers That Changed Fashion”! This new series will featured and is dedicated too designers that I feel have fundamentally changed the fashion industry forever. Today I wanted to start off with a designer that seems to be forgotten all too often. Edith Head was a fashion forward, sophisticated designer whose vision for the looks she was trying to create has gone down in history. Best known for her Old Hollywood costumes, Edith Head was always able to create a feeling and atmosphere that surrounded each character she dressed. Something I have picked up on after watching several films…
