Step back in time to an age of Hollywood glamour, summer-lovin’ or punk rock, with this gorgeous collection of vintage hair and make-up styles to re-create at home. The desire for all things vintage has truly made its way back into fashion and, as the demand for classic clothing increases, so do the iconic hair and make-up looks to match. With styles from every decade between the 1920s and 1980s, you can re-create the beautiful looks made famous by the music, movie stars and top trends of the times. At a time of dancing, cocktails and underground parties, enter the Jazz Age with the style of a confident Society Gal, perfecting smoky eyes and pin curls to match that little black, beaded dress. Or channel the colourful liberation of the Swinging Sixties where big beehives and dramatic lashes went hand in hand with the groovy patterns found in clothing and accessories. As the iconic looks and style of the last century catwalk their way back into the mainstream, Vintage Beauty Parlor has all the tips and trends you need to become a vintage icon.
The Vintage Fashion Bible is the must-have accessory for all dedicated followers of vintage fashion. Written by Red or Dead co-founders, Wayne Hemingway, MBE and Gerardine Hemingway, this is a complete chronological look at 20th century fashion for men and women from the perspective of the vintage fashion enthusiast rather than fashion historian, as well as a practical guide to buying, styling and restoring vintage clothing. Using clothing catalogues, film posters, magazine articles and other contemporary advertising from the 1920s to the 1990s, the book delivers an authentic feel for each decade and shows through original visuals how fashion has evolved. Each decade includes an introduction to the period, social influences on fashion, key designers and style icons of the day. Special features take a look at swimwear, underwear, accessories and fabulous vintage wedding outfits for a complete and comprehensive overview of how fashion has shaped us. Get the Look features throughout the book give tips and insider advice on how to pull off the vintage look today. Complete with stunning original photography and illustration from the Hemingways' personal archive, expert advice on everything from sizing and caring to where to buy and mixing vintage with new, as well as interviews with style icons and collectors, The Vintage Fashion Bible is essential reading for all fashion-lovers, from students and vintage virtuosos, to those who just want something a little different from their modern wardrobe.
