Spring 2017 Trends: The Bold Graphic Stripe

Spring is fast approaching us which means it is time for us to start incorporating some of those major trends into our wardrobe now. A familiar trend making a resurgence that we haven’t seen for a while is the bold stripe and it feels very refreshing as we head into the warmer months. This isn’t your breton stripe that you wear subtly with everything, this is a bold, wide, in your face stripe that commands attention. From Derek Lam to Louis Vuitton designers were embracing this graphic statement in their Spring 2017 collections and now it’s time to incorporate that into your wardrobe.

The easiest way to do this is with a great striped pant. The long vertical stripes lengthen your silhouette while slimming at the same time. A trick here is the wider the stripe, the better the affect so don’t be afraid to be bold when embracing this trend. Like other stripes this bolder sister trend can still be worn as a neutral so don’t be afraid to pair it back to your favorite vintage sweatshirt or another print like a floral. Lastly your favorite shearling lined denim jacket is still the perfect topper to round out your look and make it perfectly street ready.
