The Freshest Way to Wear Florals This Fall
The notion of florals is normally identified with the coming of spring, but this fall, expect to see the popular print presented in a way that even Wednesday Addams would be in support of. Floral prints don’t always have to be perceived as “girly,” as designers such as Miu Miu, Gucci, and even Topshop are churning out this familiar print with a gothic-meets-grunge vibe that we’re very excited about. With Halloween and Thanksgiving around the corner, harnessing darker hues just makes sense, doesn’t it?
Thanks to the overwhelming amount of street style pictures and shoppable products to prove it, wearing floral prints in darker shades is officially a trend. Anticipate opaque ruffled blouses, delicate maxi dresses, and shoes that are almost too gorgeous to take out of the box, to grace your closets this fall as you embrace your dark side once and for all this season.
