This year, white is definitely the new black and the 20s will surely be the new 60s -- that is, if the Golden Twenties photo spread has anything to say about it. Forget about 'Mad Men' fashion and instead embrace a more luxurious era with contemporary flapper dresses and feminine tuxedos.
Shot by fashion photographer Pasquale Abbattista, the Golden Twenties photo spread has stylist Kathrin Seidel to thank for bringing this glamorous era into the modern age. Filled with ivory tones, soft layers and elegant jewelry, the Golden Twenties editorial is definitely for the sophisticated woman who is in touch with both her independence and her femininity.
Part of ELLE Germany's June 2011 issue, the Golden Twenties photo spread is particularly captivating thanks to the plunging necklines, draping dresses and wide legs pants.
