MANILA, Philippines - Channeling Liz Taylor for the holidays is a cinch. Famous for her hankering for ’50s styles — the full skirt, the cinched waist, the off-the-shoulder blouse — YStyle puts a younger spin on the looks, mixing prints, tossing in tropical textures and adding a bold pair of earrings here and there.
Muse of the moment: Liz Taylor
Nobody does glam better than Elizabeth Taylor. The actress, as famous for her wardrobe as she was for her multiple marriages as well as her close friendship with the late Michael Jackson, splashed onto the Hollywood scene at a young age — making her mark with her voluptuous figure and remarkable beauty (odes were written to her violet eyes). But it was her scene-stealing roles in films like National Velvet, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and, most notably, Cleopatra, that sealed her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Known for her love of figure-hugging silhouettes, the actress favored full-skirted styles with cinched waists to show off her hourglass shape then graduated to low-cut shift dresses as she aged. Though she was known for her jewelry — the lady loved her diamonds — she cut a dashing sartorial swath through Hollywood during her heyday.
