It doesn't seem long ago that we were wincing at the angular, top-heavy fashions of the 1980s. According to Laver's Law, we should still be dismissing fashions of thirty years past as "amusing" - give it another twenty years and apparently we'd be describing ‘80s fads as "quaint".
Call Laver a dork and his ‘trend arch' piffle; power dressing has tiptoed back into wardrobes. The ladies of Glitzern have made it easier for friends of the deliciously chunky, and foes of the empty racks at Savers. Pump your pegs, Fonda-style, to the floor above Von Haus. Here you'll find racks of Issey Miyake's pleats and Sonia Rykiel's sweaters, Yves Saint Laurent treasures and labels that went out of business before the eighties were even done. Enough of Laver's Laws; welcome back the stuffy fabrics, rouched skirts, off-the-shoulder cuts and enough buccaneer frill to make Vivienne proud.
