If Dior’s 1940s film noir-inspired runway show for Spring 2010 is any indication, vintage lingerie as outerwear will be the way to dress when the weather warms up. Bloggers are abuzz with the possibilities of pulling Grandma’s old skivvies out of the attic and pairing them up in layers so the look isn’t too risque.
To get the vintage lingerie as outerwear look, think vintage silk panties layered with tiny tank tops or tees, and multiple slips worn together with heels and jewelry for a dressed up night ensemble. Looks inspired by John Galliano’s Spring 2010 collection for Dior are already available at Urban Outfitters, Etsy.com, and of course, Granny’s closet.
