Prepare to be shocked by the new. This year’s new looks back to, then beyond, the sixties. From pixie cuts to Lucite jewelry to polka dot tops, the mod in this year’s fashion stands for modern. Pleats meet pumps, paisleys power off stripes, and vibrant colors and geometries outline the body like a pop artist paints a portrait.
