Fashion Fix: Corduroy

Runway season has just about come to an end, and we’re already waiting in anticipation for next season’s fashion feast. However, It appears that the ’80s are making a serious resurgence for the colder months, that involves lots of volume and lavish textures – one of which is good old corduroy. We’ve been told a thousand times this year that golden fashion-oldies are making a comeback. The problem with this is that retro style can have quite a dated look. But fear not! There are more low-key ways to wear the versatile corduroy trend. 

 

Ultra- modern Silhouettes


The myth that corduroy makes you look bulky is one of the past. A little corduroy dress or jumpsuit, paired with leather boots or even some flashy sneakers is a look for the books! As long as you’re not layering this fabric with any other thick textures, you’re good to go.

Light lightweight cotton and smooth linens pair quite nicely with corduroy, and helps to achieve a charming ensemble.

Opting for a heavier, more durable fabric will not only help to keep warm, but could complement your silhouette by creating some curves. Try a wide-leg corduroy pants, a fitted dungaree or cute corduroy mini-skirt to up your style game on colder days.

 

Jacket Staples


One easy way to get your fashion fix and up your style game this season, is by adding a funky corduroy jacket to your closet. Amongst the leather, khaki and endless amounts of denim, this statement piece will surely stand out.
