Find Out How To Look Great With Retro Street Wear Style Any Season

The most essential thing to remember this season in urban fashion is retro chic. This could be applied from day-to-day wear through to clubbing gear. For winter 2010/11 the on-trend appeal for street wear actually is a little more grown up. Sharp lines are now merging with the classic baggy street look in order to show off figures and establish a more streamline, ultra-modern look.

Effortless Contemporary Design

Retro street wear is designed for establishing a very polished modern design. There is always something pretty eternal about retro street wear and it never seems to go out of style. If you pull this style collectively well you can definitely appear both cool and casual at the same time. This could essentially be a very hard appearance to achieve and the real key is actually simplicity. Layer complimentary colours in a selective manner and keep patterns confined to one or two components of your attire (for instance, patterned trousers or t-shirt not really both).

Acquire the Retro Street Wear Look

Here are some essential hints to getting this season's essential retro street wear appearance:

  • Beanies - stripes never ever get out of fashion and stripy beanies certainly are a major favourite in the cooler months. Volcom offers fantastic classic stripy beanies in both relaxed and taut knits.
  • Hoody - for that cool retro street wear look you will require a hoody. These are donned in place of jackets and coats when the weather gets cooler. Top street wear names like Ringspun, Volcom and Addict all produce retro hoodys for that perfect on-trend look.
  • Slogan T-shirt - the traditional slogan t-shirt actually is an important part of the retro street wear fashion. This season is seeing intense t-shirt colours combined with simplistic, eye-catching styles. Popular trademarks which stay in style will include war-related images. Faceless WWII soldiers, guns, tanks and more have all been featured on top selling t-shirts. For example, Rogue Status are offering a stunning monochrome print t-shirt with their vintage ‘Gun Show' design.
  • Jeans - pick jeans that are well cut but simple for the vintage retro appearance. These must be straight and having a wide leg to deliver a more refined appearance whilst still offering a comfortable and casual cut. Darker shades are pretty ‘now' for the street wear appearance, and so select darkish black, indigo and navy jeans. Zoo-cut gives you several amazing trendy jeans including their straight leg ‘Blue Raw' Salvage Jeans.

About the Author

The retro street wear look is actually eternal and stays in style no matter what the season. Major street wear names such as Volcom furnish a wonderful choice of retro gear that could be dressed up or down as the situation needs.

what would European women have worn at the end of WWII?

I'm doing a project and need to dress up as an Austrian woman at the end of the war. Any style pointers? hair, clothes, makeup? I'm assuming they had what they did at the start of the war, so early 1940s styles and a little worn looking. Anything would help!

http://www.tridentmilitary.com/New-Photos14/393.jpg
This is the best pic I can find quickly.
If you have a chance - rent the 1949 Cary Grant movie "I was a Male War Bride." The scenes are shot in Germany at the end of WWII and show German women in the background.
Plain shoes, skirt over the knees, blouse and jacket should work - though no one would EVER think I know anything about women's fashion. LOL I do know a little about history.

Here's a photo from a German women's magazine

http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2009/04/14/article-1169882-04714E1A000005DC-609_468x604.jpg

No long straight hair in those days.
Often curled or waved or just simply tied back - shoulder length.
Lipstick - red - was big back then - if they could get it.

Here's a book on 1940's fashions (American). http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0486269183/thecostumegaller

Excellent project. Maybe you have grandmother who could help.
