MANILA, Philippines - The fashion weather forecast at SM? Rainy days may be ahead, but it’s bright and sunny where style is concerned with five of the latest fashion trends – slashed, tassels, drapes, embellishments, and animal prints.
The good news is that you can walk through the rain in these outfits – and keep dry, as you can take home a chic bottled umbrella for free with a P1,500 minimum single receipt purchase at the Ladies Wear Department. Check out these great new looks at SM.
1. Slashed tops or leggings make ladies look artfully hot. It is said that this look surprisingly goes all the way back to the Renaissance period when commoners slashed their garments to show their displeasure to the royals who decreed they can only wear one color of clothing. Today, the slashed look shows a lot of edge and attitude.
2. Tassels give clothes a graceful swing. While these are mostly associated with shoes and bags, they give fringe benefits to simple, basic tops.
3. Drapes are all about femininity and romance as softly draped dresses, skirts, and tops go with the fashion flow.
4. Embellishments let the most basic outfits sparkle and shine. The embellishment edict: the bigger the better.
5. Animal prints roar back on the fashion scene with tops, dresses, and bottoms that take you on a walk on the wild side.
Get all these trends and more now at the Ladies’ Wear Department of SM Department Store this August, plus a stylish umbrella for every P1,500 purchase.
