Seek out old-fashioned embroidery, like Miu Miu's blanket-stitch-trimmed midi skirt. Or the eyelet and lace-trimmed maxi dresses and petticoat skirts seen at Roberto Cavalli and Payal Pratap. Your finishing touches: A pair of old-school espadrilles, barely-there make-up, and pinned-back, au naturel hair.
