How to Wear The Architectural Trend

This is a trend that may seem hard to pull off to some. The over-exaggerated details and avant-garde look may be airstrip friendly but not real life. But road style and bloggers have shown us that the stylish architectural trend can be worn out and about.

Designers have incorporated origami folds, angular cuts and rounded shoulders into their clothing that hold their shape when worn, showcasing dramatic silhouettes on the airstrip.

A tip for wearing the trend is to aim for balance and proportion. If you are wearing a strong-shouldered jacket with a belted waist, pair it with a slim fitting skirt. Another way anyone can wear the trend and make the illusion of a tiny waist is by sporting a structured peplum dress or skirt.

Style icons Elena Perminova and Miroslava Duma showcased the architectural trend while attending the Christian Dior show during Paris Fashion Week.
