It is a known fact that trends within the fashion industry always make a return, either in their original form or modified with a few tweaks here and there and become bigger and better than ever. With enormous amounts of pressure on designers to create trends that are both flattering and accessible, they will look to past decades for inspiration to see what worked and what didn’t, hence how trends are always resurfacing. As fashion is not an exact science, it is hard to predict when these trends will come back into fashion, however it is guaranteed that if the trend was a hit, it will be back.
Although many trends have come back into the market this winter, one in particular that is reclaiming its title and has made its way back into the hearts of fashionistas everywhere is that of the bell sleeve.
Whether they are embroidered, oversized, slightly flared or simply huge, the statement sleeves have become the focus of many outfits this season. Being flirty and fun, this is a trend that simply adds that extra pizzazz without going too overboard. Its head-turning, yet wearable. Adds a little drama, yet still subtle.
While some may think its odd to make a statement in such an unusual part of the outfit, I can assure you that bell sleeves are sure to improve your everyday life. Whether thats through hailing down a taxi, waving your arms around dancing, or signing autographs to many of your fans, either way, bell sleeves are undoubtedly the first and foremost way to look fashion forward this winter.
While I am guilty of possessing more than a few bell sleeved items, this cool and colourful striped jumper would have to be one of my favourites. Being lightweight, a relaxed fit, captivating in colour and of course featuring dramatic bell sleeves in the form of a triple tier, this ruffle knit works perfectly with jeans or a skirt for for an everyday look that is anything but dull.
It’s no secret that we all take part in fashion trends one way or another, so why not jump on board the bell sleeve wagon this winter and inject a little drama into your outfit.
