Technicolor Feel

Technicolor Feel


Technicolor Feel by mic-chic featuring a peplum dress

So today I bring you this collage, featuring actress Doris Day style,  it is inspired again by the 1960's, you will find it is one of my favorite eras, not only in fashion, I think that from the late 50's to the mid 60's, people started to discover new ways for design and for the use of colour and expression, coming up with all those gorgeous  dresses, accesories, lipsticks, and even cars. 


I've noticed that since a couple of years back to now, this trends have started to return very strongly, you can look throught a magazine and notice the hair do's, the make up and clothes, they are very much inspired by this time. 


So I love Doris Day movies from the early 60's they were fun, and simple, and full of this colorful design imagery. 
Above you can see an outfit I put together inspired by her. Simple line dresses, with boat necks and above the knee lenght, all in one color, that would always complimmet her bright coral lipstick. So I paired a nice orangy-red peplum dress with nice light sky blue classic heels, and very simple but elegant accesories. 


Down below, I post a picture of me wearing a dress I made myself, it is not summery, I designed it for last new year's eve, but it was very much inspired by this early 60's simple dresses, made with an emerald green taffeta, and deep green teardrop rhinestones along the boat neckline. Very elegant and nice. 


So hope you liked this post! See you soon!
