Tailored to Fit at The Gothic Shop

Trends will come and go, but tailored tails and top hats are here to stay. There is something about the small but important details that can be found in a quality coat, dress or blouse. The sewn in seams and corseted waistlines will give you a figure to die for instantly. 

But is this retro look one that can work today? Well fitting gowns were hot enough for Elizabeth Taylor and Marilyn Monroe during Hollywood's golden era, and they are just as smokin' today. Tailored blouses will give you the nip in the waist that's needed for that cinched in look. Well stitched jackets with flared tails are super flattering on the waistline too. The real statement is in the finer details at The Gothic Shop this season...
