The Soil

Early last year my family got to host our very first traditional wedding for our oldest sister Tsholo.  I was given the fortunate task of dressing the wedding party and our youngest sister Katli would be the host of the celebrations.

I dressed her in a high-low Peplum shirt with a white Peter Pan collar and a high wasted short skirt.  She finished off her look with a pair of black Opaque stockings as it was a winter wedding, and a pair of patent leather, peep toe stilettos.

Her look is made up of two simple garments which are livened up by the flamboyant mix of prints and the 'trendy' characteristics of both pieces.  See more on this post on her blog http:/katalystkollection.blogspot.com

TRENDS

The 1920s

Authenticated by elaborate detailing, the gratuitous use of soft fabrics, the dropped waistline, this is what defined the decade.  Delicate, feminine and just plain fabulous, this look equates to the perfect description of a Woman. Cut on the bias (luxury personified) pleat detail, in soft hues, e.g, sorbets, nudes and metallic shades of gold and silver, are right on trend. 

Satin, lace, chiffon, georgette, sequin, pearls, fringe...can you say "the grate Gadsby".
