Seraphic Secret likes to follow trends in fashion. Our mission is to ignore the slutwear that parades as cutting edge design and focus instead on beautifully tailored outfits that are both flattering, ladylike, and modest.
As always, we do not highlight pant suits; they are a crime against femininity.
We are happy to report that the most interesting trend for Spring RTW ’13 is a refinement of the classic feminine silhouette. Overpowering volume and migraine-inducing patterns are, for the most part, absent; a good thing if you’re over 20 years-old and weigh more than a stalk of wheat. Instead, the best designers focus on clean lines that can be worn by actual female human beings.
The best outfits are a welcome flashback to the crisp glamour of Grace Kelly, Natalie Wood, Elizabeth Taylor, Audrey Hepburn, Kim Novak, Tippi Hedrin, Eva Marie Saint and Sophia Loren.
Karen and I wish all our friends and relatives a lovely and fashionable Shabbat.
Entertaining how the top of the Temperley dress has an unabashed smiley on it.
Barry:
The postmodern model is chosen for height, walk, weight, and the ability to properly feature clothing. A classically beautiful face is considered old school. Now, fashion thrives on “interesting features.” Which is often quite scary.
Sad that this part of the world has escaped from me. Thank you, Robert.
Robert,
The fashions seem fine, but I don’t like the look of the models. No Dorian Leigh-Suzy Parker’s in this crowd.
