Forget about colours, this summer’s hottest trend is all white!
From the Oscars where stars like Gwenyth Paltrow, Rooney
Mara, Octavia Spencer and Mila Jovovic wowed in their all-white looks, to the SS2012
runways of designer labels like Louis Vuitton, Moschino, Nina Ricci, L’Wren Scott;
white dresses have been on the rise this year and luckily for us replacing the
LBD as the classic dress to go to for every occasion.
What I love about the LWD is that it is very versatile, breezy
for the summer and works well with almost all skin tones as long as you follow
few tips which I’ll be dishing out later in this post. The trend this summer
has spanned from very minimal and practical forms of the LWD (Jason Wu and L’Wren
Scott) to a more ornamental ones like the detailed and romantic lace and
organza creations at Louis Vuitton especially.
But first, as usual I’ve done the work for you and picked 3
of the best on trend LWDs, all from local labels of course! These dresses are
not on the cheap side but they’re definitely worth the investment as judging by
the AW2012 shows in NY, the LWD is here to stay for at least a couple more seasons to come.
