Retrocentric!

Hello style lovers, it’s a new week and it’s time to chart our style course for the week. Many an individual at one point in their lives have sought and probably found style solace and rescue from their parent’s style wardrobe.  Over the course of history, fashion and her worshippers have left many trends behind like discarded lovers abandoned with a broken heart. Truth is, though some trends though now unpopular are still very stylish hence the new term retro fashion

Retro fashion basically is style that is consciously derivative or imitative of trends, modes, fashions, or attitudes of the recent past.  Think 90s pedal pushers or hipsters, 80s shoulder pads and pop sleeves, 70s flair pants, 60s pinups, 50s poka dots or granny dresses and voila!
This year fashion’s heavy reliance on styles or trends from decades past have made retro style ensembles must have for the cosmopolitan style lover, who is ready to divulge history secrets through style.

Wondering where to shop for your vintage style pieces to give your outfits that old glamour authenticity? A good place to start would be your parent’s closets and online vintage marts like retrospective now available on Jumai Nigeria.
