The styling for the mood reflects the influences underpinning the Retro Fantasy looks. The trend is perfectly placed for fur developments, summoning up the glamour of a by-gone era while still addressing a certain level of modernity. The shoulders take on new emphasis with softly draped portrait necklines or exaggerated caped effects on to-the-knee silhouettes in a graceful combination of vintage inspired looks with a simple modern edge. Old school furs are key to the trend but worked in a new modern way – remember this is a trend about reinvention not reincarnation.
FIG 1| The look here is almost couture-like with an elegant jacket featuring a face-framing draped collar and shoulderline balancing a narrow waist and exaggerated peplum for a touch of modern-day old school glamour.
FIG 2| Full-on fur taken to the max with a luxurious combination of textures for a sleekly modern coat shape in sheared fur, balanced by the dramatic contrast of a retro styled full fox caped shoulderline.
