Sequins are firmly back in style with the mainstream fashion bods, and while much of the sparkly fare is distinctly modern, there's plenty of vintage inspiration to be found in the ranks. This Jasmina Sequin Dress from Monsoon has a great 40s appeal, taking clear inspiration from Marilyn Monroe's most risqué number in Some Like It Hot.
The simple shift shape lets silver square sequins look luxurious but not overdone, with a subtle colour palette too. The sheer neck panel is offset by a longer hem to provide a classic look that's a great imitation of the forties starlet's frock.
