The Embellished Collar Trend!

So as some of you may or may not know, I am currently writing as a Fashion Contributor for The Lookhit online magazine, so I thought I would share my latest article that I wrote for the website:

 

The Embellished Collar Trend

Elegance, opulence and edge epitomises this season’s must have accessory for your Fall wardrobe. From simple and feminine to studded and spikey the embellished collar is a perfect way to show your personal flair and style.  With designers like Marni, Rodarte, Jason Wu and Oscar de la Renta all having interpreted the trend in their collections, this accessory adds panache to every outfit.

Making your Fall closet staple items versatile enough to wear more than once is essential for fashionistas alike.  The embellished collar brings with it both versatility and variety.  What’s more some are detachable so you aren’t limited to what you wear it with. Available in a vast array of fabrics, colours and sizes there’s something for everyone.

The collar has been seen before on the catwalk and although the trend isn’t necessarily new, it’s only now it has come into its own as a stand-alone accessory.  Depending on the day, situation or location, you can choose from a range of options to suit your style and make a statement.  With this trend almost anything goes- beads and pearls create an ultra-feminine look, studs and spikes are chic and edgy, and jewels and sequins suit the more glamorous and sophisticated customer.  Shapes differ with the traditional pointed collars at the forefront of the trend, complemented by the bib and peter pan collars. 

To style up your everyday outfit, you might consider a simplistic pearl embellished collar or adorn your own shirt collar with removable metal collar tips.  Similarly vamp your evening ensemble by adding a studded collar to make a punk rocker transformation.  One of the best parts about the embellished collar trend is that the collars aren’t only designer articles but available across all high-street brands, which means you can find this trend at any price.
