The Titanic Set Sail in Style
(IN 1912) & Has Never Gone Out of Fashion
Luxury is one of those know-it-when-you-see-it things, and it was what you saw on the Titanic in 1912. Voluminous hairstyles beneath enormously decorated hats, punchy patterns, buttery soft silks and spectacular jewels — the fashion icons of the day turned that ships’ Grand Staircase into a daily, buzzy runway show that cemented luxury brands — Louis Vuitton, Tiffany, Macy’s and others — into what they are today.
