Big Shoulders on the Runways

Big shoulders came back ; from New York to Milan, the catwalks presented the very best 21st Century spin on the 1980’s big exaggerated power shoulder. Mixed in among all the electric colours and the shiny bits of Marc Jacobs Spring 09 collection were peaked-shouldered black jackets and vests worn with wide-leg trousers cropped below the knee. As with everything in fashion there are always the designers who introduce a trend 2 years before it spreads, in this case Margiela brought it back with a bang in F/W 2007 long before other designers.

Di Milo : “Big shoulders are the closest we get to wings.”
