Miss Selfridge Fashion Trends Autumn/Winter 2005 - Evening
Miss Selfridge is always a store that helps
young people follow trends in fashion. The
fall winter 2005 Miss
Selfridge collection concentrates on using the fabric of the season
including lace, chiffon, corduroy,
velvet and fur. See more
on the other SelfridgeWallis,
and Evans pages.
Soft yet seductive
with a dangerous edge, basques and corsets create dramatic seductive
silhouettes. A 'barely there' feel of wispy silks and chiffons with
a ragged, torn appearance, are finished with faded florals.
Colours are romantic and mysterious.

Shorts are hot fashion looks for evening for those with
racehorse legs or not a dimple in sight. The example below show
inexpensive black corduroy shorts worn with either a lush
black velvet frock coat
or pussy bow jacket. If your legs need work then consider wearing
shorts with over the knee socks or some of the huge range of coloured and
decorative opaque tights available this autumn.
Black Magic creates a dark and mystical mood, full of dreams
and fantasy. Medieval and Victorian eras come together through decorative
details all with a touch of opulence. Sexy dark denim in graphic black
is mixed with ultra soft camisoles and drape dresses in powdery tones.
Victorian velvet jackets are worn with precious jacquards and soft aged
blouses while silk jerseys are decorated with crystal sparkles.

Fashion-Era.com looks at women's costume and fashion history and analyses the mood of an era. Changes in technology, leisure, work, cultural and moral values. Homelife and politics also
contribute to lifestyle trends, which in turn influence the clothes we wear. These are the changes that make any era of society special in relation to the study of the costume of a period.
