Retro Style Vintage Dresses to Give You that Original, One-of-a-Kind Look at Your Prom
The term "Retro" or "Vintage" covers numerous decades. It's odd to think of the 1970's or 1980's as Vintage or Retro, but they are! However, more often than not, these terms tend to generically refer to the 1950's, but of course you can find a Retro Prom Dress from a variety of decades, even the 1940's.
If it's the 1950's that appeal to you, then styles such as "A Marilyn Monroe Dress", "A Lucy Swing Dress", or a "Rockabilly Satin Dress" are good choices to look at.
When dressing in the 1940's form, think Audrey Hepburn. In selecting your prom dress, remember details like, butterfly sleeves, tight waists, exagerated shoulders and A-Line or Form Fitting Skirts.
If the 1960's interest you, think demure and lady-like. Despite the '60's being a time of GoGo Boots and Mini Skirts, when it came to formal evenings out, elegant long gloves were worn, skin was adequately covered up, and the overall look was formal and graceful. Think of the former first lady, Jackie Kennedy. Prom dresses were often pretty and frilly with a conservative look.
