Stripe trend
Stripes trend is everywhere. Stripes are easy to wear, flattering, fun, classic and timeless. Stripes come in variety of widths and colour. We have also spotted fashionistas and celebs wearing vertical, horizontal, diagonal and chevron stripes.
Pamela has done an amazing job styling her buttoned down striped dress which she paired it with a long black blazer, brown loafers, brown belt and a burgundy shopper bag for a stylish look.
Here is a guide on how to rock stripes trend no matter your size or shape. If you are curvy shape wear vertical stripes which draw the eye up and down rather than sideways towards your widest areas. if you have a fuller figure wear subtle stripes on top half which should flatter your curves. If you’re petite shape wide horizontal stripes will flatter your figure as they give an impression of bigger curves.

If you have a busty shape wear horizontal stripes as they stretch the eye across the fabric which makes you not look too busty. For the pear shape wear big/large stripes on your top half to draw the eye away from your lower half. If you have a boyish figure tight horizontal line and thin stripes across the hips and bust will accentuate your little curves. And if you’re tall maxi dresses will flatter your figure but if your short just stick to short skirts.
Wear a stripe dress with bright accessories to keep your look more interesting, and for cooler days add a tailored jacket just like the way Pamela has done with her striped dress.
