Marilyn’s white flowy dress that we love from that infamous scene in the movie “The Seven Year Itch”   where the dress blows upwards from the subway vent.  That dress was designed by William Travilla. This iconic dress was a bomb, all of the women back then owned one that looked exactly like it! It was the first time to the world to see silk pleats without any layers beneath and of course that timeless neckline. This design was over sued and still we can’t get enough of this beautiful deign.

Leggings by Flash Dance (1983)

Big cropped tops and leggings are here because of that movie how great is that? It may seem as if cropped tops and leggings were invented yesterday but it all goes back to the 80s, Madonna’s era where people lived in the gym and wore sportswear from head to toe anywhere. This look wasn’t only at the gym but it was all over the world! Big messy hair, leg warmers and huge colorful accessories were all trendy. Life was in bright colors back then. So those leggings that we can’t live without today were born in the 80s ladies!
