Just take a look at the latest fashion events and appearances of famous actresses to notice a detail that is catching the eye: fashion shows, celebrities and fashion lovers have definitely joined the wave of fringed clothing and accessories. They are in skirts, dresses, coats, pants, boots and in small details that make a big difference in the look. Fringes also appear in accessories such as bags, belts, necklaces and even earrings.

Contrary to popular belief, bangs are not just cowboy stuff and country style clothes. Much less 1920s flapper fantasy (though some pieces are inspired by them). Now the footprint is different: the style is now included in sophisticated collections, elegant dresses, but also part of boho, casual, casual and hippie chic looks.

Fringed outfits are fun and have extra movement, inspiring rocking compositions. However, what counts is minimalism: when choosing a fringed piece, prefer the ones that make up the silhouette in an aligned and straight fit.

How to use?

Several parades this year were marked by presenting beautiful looks with fringed details on dresses, skirts, blouses and bags. At the Gucci summer show the fringe came in both thinner pieces and more stripped down options. Brazilian brands Huis Clos, Coven and Acquastudio also joined the fringe in their collections in some supersophisticated pieces.

Always choose the pieces that best match your usual style of dress. Fringed details on the sleeves and bars of blouses or coats, fringed skirts and boots with a discreet touch of trend can make your look super cute.

Heavier fringed garments like leather and suede jackets look great when paired with jeans and boots or a drier dress.

When the fringe piece is bulkier, always combine it with a tighter piece to not increase the silhouette or use the fringed details to give volume to body parts that you want to highlight. For example, if you have small breasts, you can abuse the fringes at chest level. Those who have little hips and are thinner can fearlessly wear style dresses, skirts and shorts.

The fringed accessories are great and give a super stylish look. With them you can join the trend in a versatile way without fear of making a mistake. Bet on handbags of various sizes, both maxi, hand and postman style, with fringed detail making for a more bohemian chic look. Belts, scarves and necklaces can also make the style discreet and elegant.

On the feet, the short boots, long boots and ankle boots set the tone for those who want to wear the style with short or longer fringes in the shoes. Throw in the trend by being careful just not to get excited about the composition and mix various pieces with fringes and make the look too heavy.
