Striped are having a real moment - and this is definitely one trend you’ll want to jump on, trust me! Let me explain - first of all, stripes are a classic style staple, which means you can bring out your striped dresses season after season without worrying about them going out of fashion. All you need to do is switch up your accessories to update your look. They’re a great choice for any occasion - be it a summer wedding or soiree or even the daily commute to the office.
Then there’s the clever optical illusion that wearing stripes creates - horizontal stripes can add structure to an outfit while vertical stripes create an elongated effect, making the wearer appear taller and slimmer. Why? Because vertical lines draw the eye up and down rather than across. Clever, right? Plus there are so many variations - chunky colour block stripes, thin demure stripes in pastel hues or full-on rainbow colours - there’s a take on the trend to suit every taste going.
It’s no wonder we’ve seen so many celebrities stepping out in striped dresses lately - the Duchess of Sussex, Amanda Holden, Chrissy Teigen; even Anna Wintour has embraced the trend.
