MOVIES.
First off, classic movies are awesome. It's a Wonderful Life? Rear Window? They're amazing films. As a film major, I do have a special appreciation for them. But I think everyone does in some way or another. Whether it's the cinematography, the story, the style of film, or even just the time period itself. These films are continuously used to teach filmmakers today how to make great movies.
Famous scene from It's a Wonderful Life
Mary Pickford, silent movie star
Loved this movie! I was so happy that this film was made.
Fashion is a big part of everyone's life. Yes, even guys'. I know this explanation is overused, but it truly is an expression of oneself. Vintage style, which is mostly the way I dress, stems from the more conservative, simpler times. Girls today reflect these styles and show their attention to expressing themselves in a simpler, more feminine way.
Above is an interesting comparison. I came across two photos- one of supermodel, Candice Swanepoel and the other of 30s and 40s superstar actress, Betty Davis. The pose, side-swept curls, expression, even the photo style are alike! Goes to show how much we use early time periods in so many ways of artistic expression.
Above are two photos of Sophia Loren, famous Italian actress. Her styles in these photos are extremely reflective of how models are styled today, and how many girls are dressing. I'd for sure where that dress in the second picture anytime.
Here's a picture of Taylor Swift with the wrap around headband and red lipstick-- very
popular in the 20s!
It's no secret that vintage style has become more popular. But it's always interesting to see how it's reflected and executed. In forty years, what we're doing now will be vintage!
Thanks for reading guys, have a great day! <3
