“Florals for spring? Ground breaking.” The sarcastic statement by Devil Wear’s Prada’s ‘fictional’ Miranda Priestly may be founded, with the traditional look considered passé- but pulling out the floral frocks for winter is far from old.
Already spotted on sidewalks and catwalks from here to New York, it’s the must adopt look this winter.
Worn with tights, platforms and leather satchels, the floral dress has a must-have accompaniment this winter- and that’s the structured blazer. Why does it work? The contrasting styles have an air of juxtaposition to them and the blazer keeps the cold away.
If you want to rough it up a bit, go for high fashion contrast with a cropped leather jacket.
Honey & Beau have a selection of winter florals available at Sybil’s Closet by Danielle.
Contrasting texture is the key to making this look pop, try warming it up with steel grey ribbed tights and suede platforms.
Local boutique Itrip Iskip has great satchels and accessories in store to complement this look.
