In Style Then, and Back Again

In style then, and back again.  Vintage style clothing is at the hype of its return.  If you go shopping, you will see a lot of modern clothing with little vintage tweaks such as peter pan collars, high waisted everything, wavy hair, and the occasional person who goes a little too far(you know who I'm referencing...) 

Here are some pictures of vintage style then and now.

As you can see, the pictures above illustrate how vintage style has been incorporated into modern clothing today.  This picture of Audrey Hepburn is a great example of the styles we strive for now.  Looks like this can be found in many stores such as H&M, ModCloth, J. Crew, American Apparel, Urban Outfitters, and many other big chains and local boutiques.  Thrift stores, such as Decades in Salt Lake City, are also a great way to find authentic vintage clothing at good prices.  

Not only is vintage clothing back, so is vintage hair and make-up.  Waves and buns are all modern hairstyles, that we have incorporated from times before us.  Here are some pictures of vintage styled hair and makeup, then and now.

If you compare the trend of vintage fashion from this year, to the styles from five years ago, obviously a lot has changed.  That's the one thing I love about fashion.  If you don't necessarily like what's in style, it will always change, just like all kinds of art.  That leads my mind to wonder what fashion will be like in the next couple years.  For all I know, we could be wearing bell-bottoms and tie dye.  Well, let's hope for the best.
