Marrakech Express

Marrakech isn't just where Alfred Hitchcock filmed the opening scenes of his movie "The Man Who Knew Too Much", it is also the inspiration for a fantastic new trend this season! The famous city is known for having the largest traditional market in Morroco which has been a great influence for designers. Vibrant colors, rich silks, bright patterns and gold detail are used to rejuvinate silhouettes like jumpsuits, maxi dresses, harem pants and sheer blouses.

FOUND vintage continually reads and researches trend reports to ensure we are up to date with the fashion world. Styles and patterns are constantly being recycled by designers. Vintage enthusiasts understand this more than anyone, and know how to wear their vintage masterpieces without looking dated. Its all about how you wear it!!

The first photo is of a model wearing designer Phillip Lim's version of the trend. The second photo is our version you can buy at FOUND without your wallet dying. Our lavendar maxi dress is $45 and was lovingly made in India. It has an incredible beaded rope neckline that is shaped like a halter. The sandy jacket is $45 and has two rows of gold buttons down the front.


The third photo is a GORGEOUS golden jumpsuit by Diane von Furstenberg. If you don't have $345 for her jumpsuit then check out the jumpsuit we have at FOUND. Our magenta jumpsuit is $35 and looks great paired with a leather belt and platform sandals.
Being a savvy shopper has never looked so good!
