Polka-dots are big again and this time around the trend is having a little fun with colour!
Prints have been making a fashion statement recently and the latest attention-grabbing motif is polka-dots! While there’s nothing new about this trend, seasoned designers Dior, Valentino, Michael Kors and DKNY have given the once basic print a new and exciting spin. Oversized and exploding with bright colours, the polka-dot trend is a great way to liven up any of your outfits. Rising starlet Emma Robert’s knows this well, illustrating her trend-setting style with a bright pink polka-dot blouse while the always effortlessly chic Kate Hudson recently kept warm in a polka-dot wrap sweater. What’s great about this print is it can be dressed up or down—it’s up to you. Pair your dark wash jeans with a colourful polka-dot top for a look that really pops! Or opt for a classic black and white take on the trend for a look that’s always of-the-moment. With a trend this timeless, you can’t go wrong!
