Still trying to find the right retro beach-bum or greaser attire for the Best Of awards party? We've got some inspiration from vintage fashion expert Karyn Oetting at Second Skin Vintage on Castle Street!
"I call it retro Hawaiian-surf-resort-wear," Oetting says of her collection of Palm Beach styles (think: Lilly Pulitzer) and other retro labels made in Hawaii she's started setting aside. Anyone looking for Best Of party attire and inspiration can find good old-fashioned '50s, '60s, '70s, and '80s beach- and surfwear at Second Skin. "And you can never go wrong with a bright Hawaiian shirt or dress."
Dress for the part with some film inspiration:
- "Beach Party" (1963)
- "Muscle Beach Party (1964)
- "Bikini Beach" (1964)
- "Beach Blanket Bingo" (1965)
"The Frankie and Annette kids wore bathing suits," Oetting reminds of the times set in iconic beach-party films. "You can recreate the look with high-waisted vintage shorts and halter tops (women) or retro-surf shorts and '60s button front for guys. There are also some really iconic characters in those movies that had a fun '60s youth culture style of dress, and we have tons of that, too!"
