Katy Perry does retro in the only way she knows how - in color - and even with blue hair to match, she looks fabulous. 

Vintage lover Alexa Chung modernizes her retro look by layering underneath the classic cinched waist silhouette. 

Lana Del Rey may sing about blue jeans, but her style is 100% retro from her big hair to her famous pout. 

Adding a print and texture livens up any frock. Throw in a pixie cut like Michelle Williams and you are retro-to-go. 

The pompadour-roll is the quintessential hair style of the 40s. Gwen's golden locks are accustom to this glam hairstyle that she rocks effortlessly.

Finger waved hair, pale skin and a curvy physique make Dita Von Teese the poster child for this sexy look. 

Va-va-voom Adele! An a-line silhouette, belted or not, flatters all shapes and sizes. We also love the neckline detail. 

Zooey Deschanel compliments her indigo, 40s style dress with an adorable polka dot clutch. 

Nicole Richie's flared leather pant and polka dot top make for a more casual retro inspired look. The red hat adds the perfect pop of color. 

We love how Taylor Swift keeps her retro-esque look young by sporting a dress with cut outs.

Vintage attire is becoming commonplace in closets everywhere, and retro, in particular, is getting its second chance on the red carpet thanks to celebs like Dita Von Teese, Lana Del Rey and Alexa Chung, among others.

A-line dresses, cinched waists, and big hair can help you score a retro look. Prints and patterns, like our beloved polka dots and florals, can also add interest and further the nostalgic effect. Aside from ’40s A-line silhouettes, flared pants and floppy hats (finally hats are popular again!) will create a more ’60s look.

Here, we rounded up some of our favorite ladies who are already exhibiting these huge fall trends.
