LINEAR

September 7, 2014

You don’t have to be an expert in geometry or a mathematical genius to see spring’s bright linear future.
This is a trend that is clean, fresh, modern, and in OCD terms tidy (boy, my boyfriend loves that word). Importantly, this is a look that goes beyond the term trend because it is universally re-workable; take a soft dress, throw on a neatly patterned coat and voila! You get a softly structured outfit that takes you from boardroom to dinner.

In essence it is all about well-cut clothes that take on architectural principles but are modified to be feminine, light, airy and flattering.
Below the knee dresses and skirts add a modern Mad Men sensuality, while cropped silhouettes herald the arrival of spring and the perennial classic, monochrome gets a much needed update.
