Fringes are making a strong comeback, with styles ranging from western-inspired ’70s fashion to glitzy 1920s bohemian themes. They are expected to be one of the most significant trends of the year.
This trim is utilised very well to improve ensembles, whether it be long strands of glittering fringe adorning lapels or tiny fringes finishing the full hem of a skirt.
The fringes and prints of the 1980s served as an inspiration for this season’s couture designs by Pierpaolo Piccioli of Valentino, who combined the exhilaration of that era with the deeper feelings of today.
Aelis is yet another brand that drew inspiration from a related idea. Aelis Couture showcased its handcrafted clothing that was essentially designed as ‘objets d’art’, blending essential aspects with a classic look.
Daniel Lee at Bottega Veneta has been a fan of this over-the-top fringe style for a few years now. Repetition of the lengthy strings was featured in his Autumn ’20 collection.
