We’ve already established fashion is very cyclical in nature. There’s nothing we love more than a little nostalgia in our ensembles, and the latest trend to resurface is the strapless silhouette that was so popular in the late ’90s and early 2000s. Luckily, the trend has evolved a little since then. These days we’re seeing everything from sleek ’90s minimalist vibes to over-the-top blouses and gowns—no sleeves attached.
Though strapless items seem like they should be relegated to the warmer months, the right styling can render that statement completely untrue. The strapless silhouette on its own provides the perfect frame to either your bare décolletage or a killer necklace. If it’s a more fitted top, opt for something more voluminous on the bottom. It can also be easily layered under a blazer for a more professional atmosphere. Come the chillier months, layer it over a turtleneck, a t-shirt, or a button-down. Even a chic strapless swimsuit serves as a bodysuit when worn with wide-leg pants or a midi skirt on your next tropical vacation.
