Idia Aisien In LFJ Dress Inspired by Classic Hollywood

Published

on

Idia Aisen gave us a taste of classic Hollywood style and we are here for it. She recently wore a yellow feathered mini dress from LFJ that looked elegant. The dress had a fitted shape at the top before leading into layers of feathers, which created movement and texture.

The colour choice alone makes a statement. Yellow is not the colour you wear when you want to blend in, and Idia clearly was not trying to. The dress contrasted perfectly against the red and gray tones of the background. The feathers carried the visual drama, making it resemble the theatrical quality of the 1960s cabaret performers.

Idia Aisien: Instagram

The standout element was, her black gloves, the tights, the simple heels create balance. Her accessories didn’t try to fight for attention, they complemented the dress. The look was perfected by how she paired it with a yellow headband on her blonde hairstyle. That alone complemented the look, giving the retro feel.

The same goes for her gold sequined clutch. It blends with the yellow without overwhelming the look. She kept her jewelry minimal with just earrings, which was the right fit considering how detailed the outfit already was.

A dress like this demands confidence. Idia delivered the concept with clear intention. She knows just how to work daring pieces, making each one seem made for her.
