Christina Hendricks is still one of my favorite people to dress because she has this old Hollywood, vintage quality to how she likes to get ready.
I'm such an old-fashioned lady.
I think I've become the go-to mustache man. It works in period pieces. Modern-day mustaches are probably creepy. But I get compliments - everyone's like, 'Wow, love the 'stache, dude.'
I really like the relaxed glamour of the '70s.
Our conception of 1950s underwear is a lovely vintage aesthetic, but actually, wearing stockings with no elastic and a girdle was heavy duty.
The forties are very cool and very pastoral. The fifties look like they're pastoral, and then you get a bit more turbulence.
They changed the floor back to old school. They changed the uniform back to old school. Somebody tell the damn players to start playing like old school.
I often put any project I write in a different decade just to roll the thought around in my head. There's a thriller I've written that I think would be nice to set in the '70s or '80s, just to take cell phones away from the movie. There's nothing like the piercing ring of an old-school telephone to really scare an audience.
There's a sort of eternal, indefinable 20th century quality to 'BTAS.' We never really pegged the decade, but it's anytime in the 20th century, so I often harkened back to things from the '40s or '50s.
I stick with a '60s vintage aesthetic of letterman's jackets, plain T-shirts, and good jeans.
I do feel like the blogs that I follow share an aesthetic and draw a lot from '90s influences.
The seventies is what I love. Soft, touchable beauty is what I love.
Why do all balls look like they're 150 years old?
I don't just want my books to be about the '30s and '40s. I want them to read as if they had been written then. I think of them as '40s novels, written in the conservative narrative past.
Even as Instagram defines our visual moment, we use the app's filters to travel backwards in time, to make our images resemble the Polaroids of yore by casting them literally in a different, more nostalgic light.
Youth culture now really looks back and embraces the past, but keeps it contemporary but not sticking to one particular style.
We wanted the book [Paper Girls] to feel to evoke the '80s, but not necessarily feel that it was drawn then.
I am more vintage than I am high fashion.
Watching yourself on screen is always a little weird, but I didn't cringe when I saw myself on 'The Hour.' It actually exceeded my expectations; every shot looks like a vintage postcard and even my most brutally honest friends have said they think it's good.
The graceful Georgian streets and squares, a series of steel engravings under a wet sky.
I don't know why I get cast in a lot of period pieces. Stephen Fry told me that I had a face for period, that I look like someone from 1920.
I like kind of the rugged bohemian kind of look.
Steampunk is...the love child of Hot Topic and a BBC costume drama
The story of my holiday decorating is if Ralph Lauren was trapped in a 1950s Woolworth, this is what it would look like.
It was a small room with dim light coming in the window, reminiscent of old Polish films.
