 Sizzling Hot Pin-Up Style Fascinators Make A Fashion Comeback Published: Feb 3, 09 Comments: 1 Views: 21,175 Fascinators, I have learned, have their roots in the UK. Thanks to those not content with the old tradition of sporting elaborate hats, these bits of headgear have been spun off into their own genre. The fascinators shown here are a blend of burlesque and pinup styles with a dash of Goth now and then. A few flower and bow hair ornaments are thrown in just to round out the collection. I am in love with the presentation from ‘Get Go Retro.’ The models are perfect! I can’t think of anyone wanting to emulate those airbrushed beauties of bygone times not wanting to pin, or tie, one of these netted roses or tiny top hats onto her head.  Fascinators are deserving of the name, and are somewhere between a hair accessory and a small, fancy hat, attaching with a comb, clip or headband. They are usually worn at formal events, and the designs are intended to be quirky and compelling: to fascinate. The look can range from chic and sophisticated to creatively bizarre, with a style that is part 1920s flapper and part uptown glamour…
It's still new enough to be fresh, and you'll undoubtedly be noticed.
