Aviator Style

The post-war aviator style is making a big come back this winter. You probably have already seen cropped bomber jackets all around you, but that’s not the only way that you can pull off this look. Besides the popular flying jacket, you can wear cropped trousers with high flat boots, home-spun knits, and feminine 1940’s inspired lingerie and ragged bow blouses. Gold trims, brass buttons, weathers leather and wool are nice touches to add to this look. Fitted riding jackets and pants that are fitted towards the lower part of the leg are also ways to incorporate this trend. Of course the easiest and safest way to wear an aviator look is with the popular aviator sunglasses and newsboy cap a la dior!
