HOW TO DO THE PEPLUM SS12 TREND

One trend I'm very happy to see return for SS12 is the peplum. Unlike the pastel trend (let's face it my clothes are not going to stay pastel for very long in smoggy London), the peplum trend is very wearable and when styled correctly, flattering on all shapes. Here are my tips for making the trend work for you:
  • Keep the rest of the silhouette clean and simple- wear your peplum top with a capri pant ala Olivia Palermo or a sharp pencil skirt.
  • This is an unashamedly feminine trend so don't be afraid to embrace the peplum in ladylike shades of pink, red and peach.
  • Keep footwear sleek and sharp to finish the look- a pointed court is perfect.



1. Catwalk: Badgley Mischka SS12  
2. Celeb: Olivia Palermo in Mulberry
3. High street: Closet pink peplum slash neck dress, Dorothy Perkins £45.00.
    High street: Gilmore2 Metallic Toecap points, Topshop, £60.00.
