It didn’t glow up with the show, the girlfriends’ coordinated style just gave it a new face and a new presentation to the younger generation. Another important reference, if you want to dive into this retro power style, are the colors and prints, the bright, the happiest, the best. This is the characteristic that the contemporary brands will transport to striped t-shirts or woven printed button up tops.
THE DOUBLE DENIM ENDLESS CIRCLE
The intro of Billy Dacre Montgomery in Season 2, with this denim style, is one of the best fashion moments, not just because of the denim look, but all the scenery.
