Covet the high shine and shimmer of Miu Miu, Proenza Schouler and Saint Laurent this season, with one of the most opulent of all the spring trends.
From sex-up vinyl textures at Miu Miu to mermaid inspired iridescent pleats at Antipodium; designers played with texture and finish for Spring/Summer ’14.
Think of this trend as the new way to embellish. Instead of jewels and gems, high-octane opulence comes in the form of liquid gold accessories, petrol look finishes and holographic textures.
