Fashion

Welcome to my vintage and retro fashion blog RetroCat. Here it’s all about the fashion from the 20s to 60s with a focus on the 40s and 50s. I get my inspirations from Hollywood icons like Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe or Hedy Lamarr as well as from old photos and magazines.

I show you daytime and evening looks for every season and occasion.
