Not unlike stripes, polka dots are one of those achieved prints that will experience a revival every few years. And while there can be something wistfully nostalgic about wearing them, their feminine aesthetic also holds a strong calling card. Designers such as Monse and Zimmermann are showing off their spots with contemporary designs achieved through cutout details or unique asymmetrical necklines. Some of our favourite street style stars are putting their own sartorial spin on the timeless print, juxtaposing spots in varying sizes, even pairing them with other opposing graphics. Our favourite, though, are soft, fly-away ruffles in chiffon, which elegantly sculpt the body.
Sophistication is best maintained through a classic palette of black, white or navy and is beautifully complemented through a statement red lip. Look to unique accessories that will bring a fresh update such as asymmetrical earrings or a brooch. A pair of white boots will also help to transition your look into the cooler months.
