This is part-II of this podcast series on Fashion Love Stories inspired by the current FX series: Feud Capote vs The Swans (the most famous socialites of his time). Yes there was a huge scandal. Please listen to my previous episode for more details. I am discussing here the famous story of a writer/celebrity/socialite/ society influencer of the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s who was part of the NYC elite, and although he is no longer alive, his story is still interesting and captivating. Major lessons to be learned from this story my darlings! xxxSusanna

True story! the story of the famous and infamous American author Truman, Capote, (Breakfast at Tiffany’s) and the swans of NYC. Who were the swans? They were the most famous socialites and beautiful style trendsetters of NYC of the 50s 60s and 70s. These women, married to the most influential men, were very glamorous and ultra rich, with beautiful style and beautiful aesthetics were the most prominent social taste-makers. To be extremely chic and glamorous was their main purpose in life as well as to be a greatest asset to their very affluent and powerful husbands. They were considered to be a “trophy” and they were spoiled with high-maintenance and very expensive tastes. There was definitely a lot of excitement and influence back then…their style and influence is still inspiring us today. During these times, here was also a very famous scandal. I’m gonna be speaking all about that here and on the next few episodes because I find this topic, this scandal… these stylish influencers and socialites extremely fascinating… after all… I love fashion. This is the power of wealth and great style my darlings… it’s magnetic… True story! -Susanna

It’s trending - the mob wife aesthetic! Its glamorous…the look of the mythical mob wife with the bold attitude, and the bold style has made its formal come back! She’s unapologetically bold, she’s strong, she’s resilient. She’s somehow fashionable and definitely noticeable. What makes the aesthetic coined a “mob wife aesthetic?” Here, I am describing, the look and details, ex. the style of the hair, the make-up, the nails, the heels, the bold jewelry and the fur coat, the leopard prints etc, that are some of the style tools used to create this aesthetic. Check it out. It’s all-over the social media platforms. It’s entertaining. This is the look - let me know your thoughts. Do you think this is a classic, wearable and functional? Do you think you’ll wear it? Is it you? Do you think it’s going to catch up and become more noticeable/main-stream? or, do you think that it is only a fad and next month something else is going to start trending and instantly replace this aesthetic? It’s glamorous I say…unapologetically bold and glamorous! The attitude goes along with the style… -S
