Ladies, don’t we all love a great maxi dress, I know I do! However, I’m here to tell you that there is another fashion statement that is trending more and more wearable this summer.
Yes ladies, the new garment that’s being sited on the runway is the KIMONO.
What is a KIMONO?
For those of you who may not know, the Kimono has evolved from being a traditional Japanese garment, and is now something to wear with almost everything, everywhere. It truly is one of the most stylish items that any fashionista should have in their closet.
At Stylistic, we have fallen head over heels with kimonos because they suit everyone. They pay little attention to the body of the wearer as it hangs loosely while still giving a sexy and classy look. The key is, adapting it to your own style and combining it with items from your closet.
We also love them because they are so light weight and easy to wear, you almost feel like you’re wearing nothing extra. It’s also a perfect piece to bring to the beach or a second layer when your skin needs a break from the sun! Really, it’s a garment that you can just throw over whatever you’re wearing.
Kimonos can immediately make your look sophisticated, full of pizzazz and chic. This style is often quite flowy which makes it favorable to style with fitted or structured pieces. A long kimono can be worn with a slim midi dress or skinny leg pants with a fitted top. Also, you can pair it with a pair of jeans, a skirt, shorts or leggings.
Our kimonos come in all different colors and prints, often favoring lighter shades and floral prints for the summer. If you’re still uncertain, pop into the boutique and try a color you like and a print that flatters you.
Allow our style team to put together a look for you, we’ll show you just how fabulously a kimono can instantly change your look!
Remember ladies, “Style is a way to say who you are without having to speak.”
