The winds of fashion are fickle indeed, with last season’s hottest looks easily discarded in search of the Next Big Thing. There are some trends, however, that never go out of fashion. We’re speaking, of course, of those retro styles that evoke a heady sense of nostalgia for the haute couture days gone by, be it ’40s-era tweed suits or ’70s-inspired disco chic. If you’re in the mood for a little fashionable walk through time, check out our back-in-time lookbook below.
