Shop The Film: Romeo + Juliet
Rival gangs, bitter death and new love, make for a fashionable film in William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. From ivory silks to colorful button downs this is one collection of looks to die for. "Did my heart love till now?"

Director Baz Luhrmann's 1996, award winning film, stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes in a modern interpretation of the classic Shakespeare tragedy.

Romeo + Juliet gives us the best of the 90's with colorful boost to the typical grunge look. Flowing blouses, fitted vests, gold chains dominate the film.
