Timeless Fashion Inspired by 20th Century Style Icons at Succubus.com
The fashion of the 20th century has given us some of the most iconic styles and inspiring figures that have stood the test of time. At Succubus.com, we celebrate these timeless influences by offering an extensive collection that pays homage to the golden years of fashion. From the flapper dresses of the 1920s to the punk vibes of the 1980s, our collection invites you to discover and embrace your own style. Explore the elegance of Marilyn Monroe, the playful chic of Brigitte Bardot, and the powerful simplicity of Audrey Hepburn in our carefully curated pieces.
The Roaring Twenties: Glamour and Gatsby-Glitz
The 1920s are known for their revolutionary style that married elegance with flamboyance. Influenced by the jazz music and dance culture, and icons like Josephine Baker, these years brought art deco elements and geometric patterns to the forefront. For lovers of the flapper fashion, we offer dresses that exude the playful spirit of the time, featuring fringe, beading, and sequins. These striking dresses, often in gold, black, or silver, are perfect for festive occasions. Crafted from luxurious materials like chiffon and silk, they offer both comfort and a sense of movement—think of brands like Gatsbylady.
The Refined Style of the 1930s and Hollywood's Influence
The 1930s saw a more refined approach to fashion, often associated with Hollywood's golden years and icons like Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich. Dresses from this era emphasized flowing lines and dramatic silhouettes with elegant fabrics like velvet and silk, perfect for those who appreciate subtle glamour. Films from that time, like "Grand Hotel," inspired the elegant and sophisticated fashion characterized by flowing, glamorous evening gowns.
References to these icons come alive in our collection through dresses equally suited for cocktails and galas, with subtle details and refined finishes. Heels with rhinestone embellishments and long evening gloves complete the look for a stunning appearance.
Marilyn Monroe and the Refinement of the 1950s
Marilyn Monroe embodies the iconic style of the 1950s, with her love for feminine silhouettes and elegant details. Our dresses inspired by this era highlight the waist and flare into full skirts—a tribute to feminine shapes. Think of colors like pastel pink, cream, red, and navy for a classic look. Consider Hearts & Roses and Pretty Dress Company for authentic style options.
The fabrics used for these dresses are often cotton blends or satin, offering durability and elegance. Add a classic cardigan or a bolero for layering, and choose kitten heel pumps for an authentic touch. A pearl necklace or a subtle pair of pearl earrings accentuates the outfit's elegance.
Brigitte Bardot in the Transition from the '50s to the '60s
Brigitte Bardot introduced a playful and flirtatious style, with her signature A-line dresses and smock-top silhouettes. Our Bardot-inspired collection offers a youthful flair, ideal for casual gatherings and summer parties. Choose from polka dots, florals, or solid patterns in vibrant colors like yellow, blue, and pink.
The Playful Elegance of the 1960s: Audrey Hepburn
Audrey Hepburn is synonymous with the style of the 1960s, with iconic roles like in "Breakfast at Tiffany's". Her style is abstract yet elegant and influential. Our collection embraces Hepburn's refined simplicity with minimalist lines and clean silhouettes, along with dreamy maxi skirts that bring movement and fluidity. Black, white, olive green, and mustard are colors that endorse this look well.
The Edgy '80s: Boldness and Dynamism in Fashion
The 1980s were known for their daring style and experimental fashion, with punk and gothic influences at the forefront. Movies like "Desperately Seeking Susan" inspired generations by blending these edgy styles. For those who prefer a bolder style, our collection offers a mix of dark shades, leather accents, and daring pattern elements. Think of velvet, spandex, and synthetic fabrics that help complete the edgy look.
Mixing Times and Trends
One of the greatest advantages of fashion is its ability to mix and match eras and styles. For example, pair a '50s swing dress with edgy accessories from the 1980s to create an outfit that is both classic and modern. Dare to experiment with colors like emerald green and sapphire blue for a regal appearance, or opt for pastels for a softer, more elegant feel.
