The 50′s were in full swing at yesterday’s presentation of Ports 1961 Resort collection. I Love Lucy played on flat screens, an old standards jazz band played (mostly 40′s music, but who’s keeping tabs) and Becks and I stood on the sidelines as a classic fashion show unfolded.

The coolest element of the show was how “classic” it was. The models were dressed in reinvisioned house dresses from the era as a trannylicious announcer read from a script that complimented the whole collection. It was very retro, very slow and very inspiring.

Hated, hated, hated the shoes, but most of the other things that came down were pretty wearable and uber period piece chic.

TRENDSPARK: Favorite element of the collection where the knit gloves that came down with every outfit. I want this to catch on like wildfire. Very Madonna circa Desperately Seeking. I want all you women out there to wear it, want it, love it.
