I get to dress up like this every year during the Tweed Bike ride our here in DC which is coming up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fantasy-fashion#post-1058675 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 17:10:10 +0000 kkards 1058675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>annie hall. didn't even need to think about it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fantasy-fashion#post-1058534 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 15:04:22 +0000 Anonymous 1058534@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I get drawn to the 60's and 70's . I do love the 20's also&nbsp;and I saw "The House of Elliott" too. I loved to see all the fashions in it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fantasy-fashion#post-1058497 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 14:27:03 +0000 gryffin 1058497@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also adore the 20's so I really enjoyed your photos.&nbsp; In fact my hair cut is an updated version of Louise Brooks's&nbsp;bob.&nbsp; Did you see "The House of Eliott" series?&nbsp; The fashion show in blues?&nbsp; The dresses were spectacular! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fantasy-fashion#post-1058113 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 03:01:43 +0000 Jaime 1058113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Carla I love the 20s also. Short curly hair, long waistless dresses, hats! It is right up my alley! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fantasy-fashion#post-1058112 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 03:00:11 +0000 lyn* 1058112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I thought I'd just do my own thing - but I think I definitely have been influenced by the 1940's and the 1950's. My parents grew up during this era, so they think I dress very "old fashioned" - tee hee. </p> <p>I do think my style is moving away from that again, though - I don't really like the HUGE flouncy skirts in the 1950's because I usually end up knocking things over (even though they look so very pretty). I like the less-fabric-taking-in-the-wartime look of the 1940's skirts more - they are still full but more practical.</p> <p>I think I am also influenced by the styles of the strong women in the TV shows I am watching right now - Dr. Gillian Foster (Lie to Me) - I think I watch the show more for her outfits than the actual premise (which sort of died after Season 1) - 5/6</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fantasy-fashion#post-1058111 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 03:00:03 +0000 deb 1058111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think my favorite is the 70's. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fantasy-fashion#post-1058079 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 01:59:36 +0000 MuseumGal 1058079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the 70s and the 40s (which I think echo each other).&nbsp; I also have a thing for Edwardian style.&nbsp; I do work quite a bit of 70s groovyness/boho into my style.&nbsp; I also sometimes get in Edwardian touches - for instance I have a couple velvet jackets, and a pair of awesome booties with Edwardian looking buttons.&nbsp; 40s style is harder as I don't have much reason in life to wear killer career fitted suits, more's the pity! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fantasy-fashion#post-1058074 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 01:52:01 +0000 Adelfa 1058074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Currently: late 60s to early 70s. Not sure it will stay that way, but right now those looks resonate emotionally with me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fantasy-fashion#post-1058066 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 01:44:28 +0000 Suz 1058066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great question, Carla, and fab images, too!&nbsp;</p> <p>I think my favourite era is probably early 60s mod. I also like the 40s. Someone introduced herself the other day saying Hepburn to Hepburn -- I like that!&nbsp;</p> <p>I don't consciously try to incorporate elements from these eras into my wardrobe, but I think I do include them in subtle ways. Or not so subtle. Like my constant obsession with chelsea boots...a 60s mod staple.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fantasy-fashion#post-1058058 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 01:36:27 +0000 Anonymous 1058058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Heh, I am in your universe, Una </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fantasy-fashion#post-1058051 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 01:23:45 +0000 catgirl 1058051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was just admiring this fabtastic set of photos which are a bit fantasy-like to me:</p> <p><a href="http://www.skarp.se/carl-bengtsson/fashion/21897" rel="nofollow">http://www.skarp.se/carl-bengtsson/fashion/21897</a></p> <p>(click on photos to scroll through)</p> <p>I like a lot of styles, but I think my era is a made-up one: medieval futuristic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fantasy-fashion#post-1058049 Mon, 21 Oct 2013 01:20:56 +0000 Carla 1058049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The YLF profile has a spot for favourite fashion era, and I get a kick out of learning the favourite eras that tickle Fabber's fancies...and if they are able to incorporate elements of that era into their look.</p> <p>I haven't really been able to incorporate 20's style flapper dressing, though I once owned a silver grey dropped waist silk dress in my 20's that was,pretty fab. My fall back hairstyle is a chin length curly bob, and this weekend I got it cropped into that style again! </p> <p>My hopes post 'Gatsby' movie was to see some of that influence on the runways, but no luck. I'll stick with sporty/classic for now.</p> <p>What is your favourite era? Are you able to incorporate it into your everyday look?</p> <p>(Below - inspirational fantasy fashion.) </p>
