PEPLUM APLOMB

peplum, a design detail described as a ruffle or skirt attached to the waist of a top, dress, skirt (or even a coat as seen at Givenchy) - was flaring at the biggest shows during Paris Fashion Week spring 2012. the flattering, sexy, yet demure shape of peplum marks the return to dressing like a lady...but not an uptight one.
an illusion of an hourglass figure, a tight cinch at the waist and a forgiving ruffle along a seemingly area of the body most women want disclosed, makes for the perfect silhouette any frill-seeker would be excited to wear this season, and the next.
