Helohaa glamstars. This is our second "we love glam" post. This is time we are looking at another fashion trend; peplum. Peplum refers to a short over skirt or ruffle attached around the
waistline. Designers like Louis Vuitton, have brought this trend this
year after 30 years. The reason why peplum has become a popular raging
trend in 2012 is because designers have shown a range of peplums with
minimum ruffles and plain colors which accentuates any hourglass figure
and also gives the image of modern sophisticated sexy silhouette. So,
lets go ahead and look at how to wear peplum and check out some of the
peplum jackets, skirts and dresses.
I love peplum beacuse its a figure hugging typer thing. Peplum is basically the clever little frill that extends from your waist to hips
(or just above) is supposed to do just that, and can be, very possibly, the
most flattering new addition to any woman's closet.Peplum celebrates a waist-to-hip curve allowing you to easily move
around, and the wide variety of peplum styles out there can mean that
anyone can wear this fun, jolly, and flattering look.
This trend is elegant and chic. You can go super glamorous with either a peplum dress, top or skirt. One important rule about peplum is to be careful with what you wear it with; if its a peplum top, what you wear on the bottom must be streamline and a bit tight. its a skirt it must be a pencil skirt and if its pants, skinnies go blend well with a peplum top. In a case of a peplum skirt, let us stick to a simple tight top, you dont wanna conflict with the peplum frill on the skirt. The point here is to showcase the frilll without any distractions.
Kim Kadarshian is one of the biggest lovers of peplum. Hey, it looks sizzling hot on her.
Sheb rocked this green peplum dress on the night of her birthday to celebrate with his lover Kanye. She looked so simple with very less accessories because the frill itself its an accessory. Isn't she gorgeous. pheew
Hmmm, "who stole my look?" vibes. Kim Kadarsh and our proud SA born and bred Hollywood movie star; Charlize Theron rocked the same peplum dress and lawrd they both looked ravishing. Kim went simple with red Christian Louboutin courts and Charlez wore simple diamond shoes. They both went very less on accesories, and they stayed winning.
Again, Tumi Voster looking gorgeous in a peplum red carpet dress at the Durban July 2012. I bet we can all see now that wearing a peplum item need not to be mixed with tons of accesories. She was very simple.
So girls, peplum should be your next best friend, from skinny to chubby, it will look good on you and give you loads of confidence.
Beauty is confidence after all
