Flounce Dresses & Flapper Hats: Bring Your Retro Back For The NYE Bash From These Stores
Only
H&M
This is the store to hit if you have a mind to rock the new year party looking like something from the 1920s (much like Ms Phryne Fisher of Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries). Velvets to satins, lace and georgette dresses - they've brought back the look spot on. The INR 799 price tag literally got us squealing and we picked velvet one-pieces, jumpsuits, self-embossed satin midis and georgette flared outfits from here. Wear their self-embossed wine-coloured wrap dress paired with a yellow beret and rock the party like Brigette Bardot from Bonnie and Clyde! Best of all, you can get the complete look here pairing your dresses with fabulous sheer, shimmery stockings, interesting berets and jewellery from the store.
Mango
Stylish, elegant and colourfully brilliant, we found some fantastic midis that should help you pass off as Lily Collin's Celia at the year end's epic party night without trouble. Mandarin reds to black and white swirls, the midis come with frills, ruffles, old-school cuffed sleeves and pleated collars. Team it with their gorgeous stilettos. Dresses aside, you could also pick a sleek one-piece with a bow sash and rock it with yellow acetate-frame retro glasses.
M&S
Go back in time in the old British way with knee-length frocks from M&S. A rare style we only found here, these classic British frocks with busy prints reach up to your knees and has a fit and flare cut. Mostly available in subtle colours of blue, magenta and mustard, these will go well with M&S's fabulous stockings (the semi-sheer ones will do better than the opaque ones for this dress). Finally, pick the season's special flapper hat (available in blue and black) from the racks and complete the charming look to wow the gathering!
