On the Fence

About peplum dresses. They kind of remind of horrific 80's fashion, but then on the other hand they are kind of classically chic.

I just don't know. They seem to be trending right now, but I am not sure if I can adopt this one. I can almost guarantee they're not here to stay.

I am sure you have all seen this famous peplum dress worn by MANY celebs from Victoria Beckham's line.


I think it depends on the size of the actual peplum and the structure of the dress. The look is best with a smaller peplum with a dress that mimics a lady-like business suit, like Posh's design above.

This one I think is totally cute and wearable. To work or a nice dinner or something. It is conservative but has an element of sexiness to it.
Alice + Olivia $264.00

And then there's other looks like this one that are just, well, barf.

Looks like she's half woman, half UFO.

All in all, some are cute, some are ugly. If you're gonna go for this trend, make sure you find the perfect peplum or else you might end up looking like a fool. If I happen to stumble across a good one, I will snag it up but otherwise I am going to pass on this trend.
