Trend How-To: Baroque

  /  8 months ago  /  32 Comments

Who doesn’t wan’t a little opulent 17th Century style injected into their wardrobes? Think luxe fabrics, royal hues and intricate embroidery- duds fit for a queen but without the inflated vintage price tag.

Luckily for me, outfits fit for Louis VIX’s coterie are flooding the market thanks to couture houses like Dolce and Gabbana. The trick to transform this trend from runway to ready to wear is to incorporate single pieces into your existing wardrobes to add a little opulence without appearing OTT.

Swap a black blazer for an intricate tapestry print, a simple top for an embroidered black and gold bustier or those simple studs for some serious ear bling.

Check out our top online picks to shop the trend below…enjoy!
