Fashion Month saw designers ringing the changes with topwear for the new season as the bustier turned into a star item as it cropped up for all hours of the day<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Of course we saw it in its most traditional forms for (increasingly rare) grand gala gowns and the more-frequently-seen lower-key occasion and evening dresses. But much more interesting was its place as a key piece in the layering jigsaw<\/strong> that was so notable this time.<\/p>\n

That layered approach saw it adapting to some surprisingly sporty daytime looks as well as evening and occasion.<\/strong> In technical fabrics and stretch, it was used atop dressed-down shirts, T-shirts and fine knits. And for careerwear, it worked well in tweeds as a conversation starter<\/strong> with a skirt or slim-cut pants.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, teamed with delicate sheers, or interpreted in brocades, lace or even an orgy of tinsel, it was the perfect party piece.<\/strong> And for casually formal summer dressing, bustier dresses also had enough newness on offer to provide compelling reasons to whip out the credit card.<\/p>\n

But it wasn\u2019t only about the\u00a0classic<\/em>\u00a0bustier as the idea of layered dressing also saw bra tops and spaghetti strap tops worn over shirts, blouses and knits.<\/strong> The latter option may be a more commercial choice when the look hits the high street, although the faux bustier will probably make an impact too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
