Fashion is fun again with this girl, hints why she adores vintage shopping at The Vutique.  Valentines Day is a day where New Wave Romance can play up her eccentric signature look for both her, and her date to enjoy.

This phenomenal poly-crepe jacquard dress from the 1980’s has an artistic flare with its swatches and splatter accent detailing the dress.  The epaulette element strengthens the look, while the pencil fit of the skirt tones the figure.  The generous pleating along the bosom may minimize the appearance of a larger chest, but the double breasted feature allows for options in terms of how the dress can be worn and what is shown.  Pair this look with gold vintage jewelry for an edgy Valentines day.

This gorgeous Henley style, crimson colored cashmere Chanel dress from the 1980’s is as classic as Ms. Coco herself.  The fabric is soft and supple on the skin.  It drapes beautifully on a woman’s silhouette, highlighting her natural curves while hiding other minor details.  The Henley feature and breast pocket add a sporty quality, sharpening the look.  In addition, each of the gold-plated buttons bares the iconic Chanel symbol, paying tribute to the incandescent designer.

SHEER ELEGANCE

From the office to a night out, Sheer Elegance is both conservative and flirtatious.  The plunging neckline is sensually provocative, while the sheer poly-chiffon creates a refined allure.  Sheer Elegance is on the move, but her style continues to embody femininity and flair.  She may be jetting from a business meeting to her Valentines Day dinner date, so her look must be versatile yet chic.  She’ll receive rave reviews on her amazing dress at the office and on her Valentines night out because of her ability to look so fashion forward at both events though wearing the same dress.

Sheer Elegance is one of The Vutiques reworked one of a kind pieces.  It has been revamped by our in house designer and is exclusive to our shop.  The light weight  poly-chiffon fabric lies beautifully on a woman’s frame.  The high waist line slims the silhouette, while the enriching rosette embroidery detail along the neckline and dotting the dress as a whole add a fanciful, ladylike quality.  In addition, the rose colored hemline at the base of the dress adds a touch of ambiguity to this black and white number.
