I am not going to say “forget trends”, as a headline just east of here suggested two weeks ago, but I am going to repeat my belief that in fashion we are in a post-trend world where the key to looking fabulous is to refresh clothes we already own with on-point styling and accessorising; by adopting only trends we love and by ignoring many trends entirely.
One of Spring’s key trends — waistlines — should not be ignored as this subtle shift in focus from hips to waist allows us to look on-point with very little effort.
While dresses in many new season collections highlight the waist — notably the Nyana by Roksanda, Massey by Gabriela Hirst and Hero from Johanna Ortiz — a statement belt is the instant way to define and reclaim a waistline.
