Vintage fashions have an allure that is totally irresistible. This is why they continue to be some of the hottest couture looks available. If you haven’t been paying attention to Hollywood glamour lately then it’s time to play a little catch up with the top vintage looks that have hit the red carpet in the past.

 

Sarah Jessica Parker, Drew Barrymore, and Scarlett Johansson have all been seen wearing razzle dazzle fashions from bygone eras. A recent photo of Penelope Cruz at the Oscars showed her wearing a 60 year old vintage gown by Pierre Balmain. She looked stunning, and she said she got very lucky becuase she found the vintage gown and it just happened to be a perfect fit.

 

 

Everyone wants to look chic and no one wants this look more than the stars of Tinsel Town. Take a look at a recent Gossip Girl episode where the fashions from the 80s once more took center stage. It seems hard to believe that even these styles are now considered to be vintage fashions. The bubble skirts and jean jackets take us back to the Valley Girl Era once more.

 

Even Paris and Nicky Hilton have been wearing designer duds with a vintage influence. It seems that the 40s-60s are the top years that most of the LA stylists prefer when it comes to finding the hottest looks for their clients. Designers during this time had attitude to spare and their lines of clothing sparkle with power and appeal.

 

Check out some of the older movies if you need further proof of the appeal of vintage fashions. Look at the suits and gowns worn by top stars like Barbara Stanwyck or Elizabeth Taylor. Many of these original looks would be just as stunning today. You would need only the right shoes and jewelry to be able to create a “to die for” fashion ensemble.
