Elvis Fashion Through the Elvis Years
Julie Mundy’s Elvis Fashion examines how Presley’s wardrobe defined his era from hillbilly chic to flamboyant 1970s stagewear. It features Graceland closets including a royal blue kaftan, a black velvet ka rate insignia suit, rainbow fringe leather, a fur coat with white velvet pants, and Belew sketches of the white jumpsuit emblematic of his late years. The book notes Mundy and Graceland’s view that Elvis influenced fashion beyond music and that denim was rare for him except in film roles.

Designers warn against matching napkins, favor flattering colors like apple green and aqua, and suggest tea-length styles with Aline tops. Necklines favor sweetheart straps as dresses move from long to shorter silhouettes. Look beyond formal shops to department stores and vintage shops, with J.Crew joining in February.
