Trendspotting: Exbellishments
Exquisite embellishments swept the runways during the fall fashion shows: Beads, feathers and fringes dangled off everything from sheath dresses to tuxedo-inspired blazers and sky-high heels. Classic add-ons like studs and sequins met their match in textured flowers and even seashells (courtesy of Roberto Cavalli). If you’re notready for head-to-toe eclectic chic (or to look like Helena Bonham Carter), go for a necklace or headband to make a statement with your favourite LBD. As Toronto rapper Drake would say, “You fancy, huh!”
