The MUSTHAVE ~ Sweater, belt and long skirt

Angelo Marani

It’s Friday, and we’re in love. Yes, we do happen to be listening to the Cure, but Robert Smith is not the only romantic round here, where next winter's concerned, romance is rife. Next Fall Winter 2011/2012 season one of trends are billowing long floaty skirts to match with sweaters and belts. Better if ballerina-inspired plisse skirts down to the floor. Pleats rule the roost next winter. Also this spring lightweight skirts is a must: long lines that sweep the floor for full-on romance. Take inspiration from Chloe‘s ballet-inspired skirts, Lanvin‘s long flowing and leg-flashers skirts and J. Mendel.
