Every trend piece this summer has been saying some version of the same thing. Nostalgia is back, and not in the ironic way. We’re talking real, unapologetic, my-mom-wore-this-in-1978 nostalgia. Polka dots in exaggerated scale. Swimsuits that look like they belong on a Slim Aarons poolside. Crochet doing double duty as both texture and armor against the heat. Caftans that finally understand a body doesn’t need to be hidden.
The thing about retro dressing is it was never actually built with plus size bodies in mind the first time around, which is exactly why it feels so good to reclaim it now. So I went and found the pieces that do it right. Here’s what I’m loving.
