An Outfit Homage to Stevie Nicks’s Witchy Style

BY: Michelle Schuman | Aug 21, 2014

Shawls might be Stevie Nicks’s signature look, but wearing them wasn’t initially her idea—she adopted them after receiving one as a gift in the 1960s. “I realized that wearing a poncho or a long shawl gave me something to work with up on the stage,” she said in a statement. “Big movements, big twirls, you need to be seen from far away. … It became totally intertwined in my fashion style." Nearly 50 years later, as she’s about to embark on yet another tour as the Fleetwood Mac frontwoman, she’s hoping her shawl-wearing can now be a gift to someone else. The Gold Dust Woman just launched a Talenthouse campaign asking fashion designers around the world to submit custom shawl designs. The winner—who will be chosen by Nicks herself—will get $2,000 to aid in production of the shawl, as well as a photo of the singer wearing it and a feature on her official website and social-media channels. To tide us over until the winner is announced, we’ve built an outfit inspired by Stevie’s distinctive style. an-outfit-homage-to-stevie-nicks-witchy-style_600c490
