Everyone likes a little bit of fringe now and again, and celebrities definitely incorporated various types and amounts of the fabric into their outfits this year. We had already seen fringe follow us into the year from 2014, but who knew it was going to stay such a hit amongst the devotees? Whether it was just a little accent to an outfit or an entire theme, we saw all levels of fringe paired in different aesthetics.
Celebrities went for fringe-everything, including full-length skirts (also known as car-wash skirts), short minis, shoes and bags!
When done correctly, I definitely think we didn’t see so much car wash as much as Bombshell in the making! For trends, it has to be done tastefully, and even though some missed the mark, you can’t deny others hit it right on the head! I think one can never go wrong with a statement fringe, which is good for you to know, considering it doesn’t look like fringe is going anywhere for the new year.
I think we’ll keep this one for a while and see where it goes. What do you think?
2. Monochrome
Monochromatic styles play with a tonal palette of consistent color, amplified by tones and textures.
Monochromatic outfits were out and about all throughout 2014, and celebrities welcomed in 2015 with flavorful ensembles that used the same primary color in an assortment of different finishes, shades and textures.
Yes, I just gave you three times where Solange ace’d monochromatic looks back to back. I’m not mad!
I’m more inclined to keep Monochrome because the versatility and the options are endless! I don’t think this trend is going anywhere, but what do you think?
3. Crop Tops/Skirt Sets:
We saw Crop Sets last year (and the year before that!), but this year’s take was slightly different. Instead of just the midi-skirt sets we saw in 2015, many celebrities opted for longer-grazing skirts. Yes, we still saw midis here and there, but the crop-set got an updated look with a little more….coverage?
I used to think the crop-top trend was exclusive to only certain girls with certain body shapes, but this year, celebrities revamped the trend to accommodate their bodies and personal needs, including longer-sleeves or lower-falling hemlines.
I loved the different fabrics used to create sets, and even how designers incorporated the trend in their attires for celebrities in more modest, but equally as chic ways.
Remember when Claire showed us an awesome crop-set that’s definitely every-day appropriate but can easily become high glam(with the fur trend)?
I think this trend offers a lot of versatility no matter the body type. Let’s take it with us into 2016!
4. Sheer Dresses
Some
say less is more, while others say less is just less. We definitely saw
less this year with the continuation of sheer dresses worn on red
carpet events as well as street style.
The interesting thing about sheer dresses were we saw just how variable the fabrication could be: some dresses had simple cuts throughout the dress to promote a sheer underlay, while others were completely bare-all and definitely needed some undergarments to accompany.
As
someone who can be a little more body-conscious in certain garments, I
wasn’t too much a fan of the super-sheerness of some outfits, although I
commended the daringness to wear it! However, I would wear something
with perhaps a sheer cut on the hem or even the arms?
The MET Gala featured a few celebrities incorporating sheer trends into the theme of the night, with both Beyonce and Kim K showing sheer in a new and interesting perspective (that has a lot of people still talking).
Sheer has definitely been overdone. Let’s leave it in 2015!
5. Athleisure
Last but certainly not least, we saw Athleisure take over everywhere. Pretty much, it’s workout clothing that’s nice enough to be worn through the day.
We
definitely saw that fabrics became nicer, cuts and forms got a lot more
chic, and sneakers/legging combos definitely became a staple outfit for
mid-day runs and weekend getaways.
We’ll also include the super comfy jersey’s that accompanies these looks as well as full-length sweatsuit combinations. This trend definitely wins an A in comfortability!
I
loved how celebrities tackled the trend in different ways, whether they
were REALLY going to workout or hitting the red carpet with nothing but
ease. Comfortable sneakers, panelled leggings, and comfortable jerseys
or hoodies complimented every outfit and showed you don’t always need
glam to look fabulous! I definitely think this is a trend that should
stick around! Take it to 2016!Well those are five trends that were definitely around for 2015. Which should we take into 2016 and which should we toss?
