Canada Fashion Jobs – Happy Birthday Mr. Liberace!

Sunday, May 15th, 2011

Today, May 16th, is Liberace’s birthday. The highest-paid entertainer through the 50s, 60s, and 70s, he married flamboyant, glittery style with onstage antics decades before Gaga was even born. Liberace owned many an ostentatious outfit to match his equally eye-catching instruments. One of his pianos was famously encrusted with rhinestones. Another was a mirrored grand piano, for which he had a matching silver sequin ensemble and matching mirrored Rolls Royce. The lesson here? If you got it, flaunt it, and the more glitz, the better.

1. Sequin Cropped Blazer, $29.80, available at Forever 21

2. Scilia Rainbow Crystal Ring by Five And Two, $95, available at JacFlash

3. Lola Sequin Crop Top, $59.95, available at Guess

4. Camilla Rhinestone Choker, $300, available from Rocaille

5. Steve Madden Metallic Sandal, $110, available at Town Shoes

6. Fiona Metallic Boyfriend Pant, $138, available at BCBG Max Azria
