Fashions have changed dramatically over the years, trying to keep pace with our ever-evolving lifestyles. Lately, I notice the fashion industry returning to the days of classic feminine elegance, though with a contemporary twist... knee-length skirts paired with sexy, black leather boots; flirty dresses in various textures with strappy sandals; long, form-fitting fall coats complemented by a silky scarf.
Despite these changes, gloves remain the one constant accessory. However, we are now seeing gloves and leather accessories often representing the central focus of an ensemble. Gloves offer much more than the practical function of keeping your hands warm in the winter... gloves are a symbol of elegance, style, and even romance.
One of my favorite classic icons is Ava Gardner, one of America's most reknowned and talented actresses of the late-1940s and 1950s. She was beautiful on-screen and off...
In the photo above, Ava embodies the look of feminine elegance with a touch of sultry beauty. Her
past-elbow leather gloves are the perfect complement to her floor-length gown... simple, graceful, and absolutely elegant.
