Classic cuts, sheath dresses, ladylike suits, pearl jewelry, hats, and gloves all made appearances on the runway during fall 2010 fashion shows at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York.
Buy, Tweak, or Skip?
Should petite women buy, tweak, or skip the ladylike style trend for fall/winter 2010/2011? I rate this trend a buy.I'm all for buying this trend because women can wear dresses, coats, or jackets with classic cuts for years, so investing in this trend makes fashion sense. What about the hat and gloves? I really like the retro look, but what works on the runway may not work so well in real life, so the easiest way to add the ladylike accessory would be to go with either the hat or the gloves, rather than both. Don't neglect the pearls. Women who shun classic pearl strands can find edgier pearl jewelry that looks fresh and modern.
