SOPHIA LOREN’S STYLE FILE!

“A woman’s dress should be like a barbed wire, serving its purpose without obstructing the vew!” The queen of sex appeal, Sophia Loren, inspired fashion in much the same way she inspired Hollywood. In the 1950s, she was arguably as famous for mixing sensual, skintight form-fitting wear with lavish jewels as she was for being Italy’s most esteemed actress. Her acting presence and poise were just as glamorous as her taste for neck-hugging chokers, suggestive displays of cleavage, amusing hats, and feathered trims that managed to combine an unmistakable sexual charge with a charm that captivated audiences worldwide. And Loren’s timeless flair has certainly not lost any of its power over the years, so go deck yourself in daunting crystals and mirror this Italian bombshell’s enduring fashion for that va-va-voom Italian style.
