THE INFLUENCE OF CLAIRE MCCARDELL
We're taking a moment to give a nod to one of the many True Fashionista designers of a bygone generation that have influenced today's fashion stars.

Still, her designs significantly impacted American fashion in the 20th century. Her influence remains among the array of luxury designers found in the vast collection at True Fashionistas, Florida's largest designer resale and consignment store.

As 2021 rapidly approaches, we ask, is tie dye still a thing? It’s still very much an activity, probably more so these days in quarantine situations. However, do they still carry cred on the street?

Whether you’re chunkin’ it out on two-story platforms, or True Fashionista balancing on four-inch stilettos, high heels have firmly placed themselves in wardrobes and on runways since, oh I don’t know, the beginning of time?
