Embrace wrinkles, like the expensively dishevelled rich, or down tools and go for the latest post-pandemic trend: non-iron clothes
Something is happening in the fashion world that any time-poor consumer will be pleased about. Catwalk shows in Paris over the past week have shown evidence of an unlikely trend: creases and wrinkles are in fashion.
The Row – the immaculate label designed by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen – had creased-cotton pieces that look like bed sheets, while Burberry’s show on Monday featured crinkled slip dresses. Bottega Veneta – the show that has been the hit among the front row this season, partly thanks to a rare catwalk appearance from Kate Moss – included trousers, made from gossamer-light leather, with noticeable creases. It was Prada – a brand that always sets the trends – that really ensured that this is a shift to take notice of. Throughout the collection there were creases and wrinkles in clothes from short shift dresses and midi skirts to grey all-in-ones.
