tailoring redefined

TAILORING REDEFINED
Transitioning Tailoring from catwalk to High Street
 
The current trend rocking the recent spring ready-to-wear collections has featured a myriad of interpretations of pairing structured fabrics with second-skin unveilings. Think tailored meets sensuality, adding a whole new dimension to tailored clothing. Despite designers differing in colour themes within their individual collections, this new tailored trend remains pervasive enough to be translated into commercial reality.

  Stella McCartney in particular features bold monotone looks while lifting the flatness of the outfits by drawing our attention to partial birthday suits. Her ability to keep the trend of lace alive by pairing it with structured pants (lace on lace) and body-conforming dresses adds a timeless feminity, whilst maintaining its masculine-inspired roots.
 
  Although such a trend may seem too majestic to pull off at LSE, here are some adaptable looks that takes the underlying idea of playing sheer against opaque into the daytime, certifiying your style status.
