The Peplum Dress

The Peplum dress is a key silhouette for this season and looks great in a eye popping bright colour like this candy pink one by Miso. The peplum describes the piece of fabric that is almost like wearing another shorter skirt over a straight skirt. The peplum can be varying lengths from no more than a frill around the waist to almost the same length as the underskirt. The V shape of the peplum on this dress makes it a flattering choice as it draws the eye downwards and elongates the body. It would look great dressed up with a blazer, jewellery, heels and a clutch and equally good dressed down when worn over a close fitting t shirts with flat shoes.

The peplum dress is the perfect way to look trendy and high fashion whilst covering up you hips and thighs -  no diets needed. I is also a great way for those with no curves to create a bit of shape.
