FOR EVER ‘IN THE MOOD’
FORTIES’ BOLDNESS CARRIES ON
Updating “the bob” (left) — a contemporary style of fluid movement with the fuller nape line. Its extreme simplicity relies on expert cutting and blow waving. By Steven of the Heavy Hair Salon. Spot on (below), is this dressy trench coat in a fine navy wool jersey with green coin spots. Shoulders are tabbed, wrists too, and the belt ties. From the House of Palma. Summing up: The Forties’ revival is nostalgic but not really sentimental; mature but not ageing; classical but never boring. Emphasis is on accessories, hair and immaculate macquiliage. Colours are pastel, but shock highlights are in bold additives. It is a bold fantasy, but definitely vintage ’73.
