Expose Your Shoulders Now!

One trend that we got to see on all runways this spring, was a lot of attention on the shoulders such as: off-shoulder and cut-out shoulders on shirts, dresses, coats, jumpsuits etc. in both day wear and evening wear. Off the shoulder tops and dresses were admired on the ramp last year, and this spring again they are brought to our notice with special attention on the shoulders. They are perfect to keep you cool during the sunny days and comfortable as you are showing enough but not too much. You can wear cut-out shoulder tops with jeans or shorts, giving it a casual look and dress it up a bit by wearing high-waisted wide-leg pants and high-heel sandals. But as you know, the shoulders are focused on, so keep your accessories, hairstyle and make-up subtle. Tanya Taylor and J. Crew are two designers who created an elastic version in order to make the tops and dresses adjustable according to where one wants the sleeves to fall. And Balmain brought out an ultra-feminine look by combining the cut-out-shoulders with some ruffles.
