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":" […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":148473,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9763,5,6,10481],"tags":[12614,12823,11067,9814,10848,11382,9726,10168,39,11716],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
