If you thought 1980s power shoulders, short suits and neon were the trickiest trends of the moment, then you have clearly not considered one which is far more daunting: head-to-toe white. Gulp. The reality, for most of us is that so much as looking at something white will stain it.
If it does, you’re in luck. Lockdown the ideal time to try the trend. No trains, no idling on the park grass, no personal space invasions. Social distancing is the ally of pristine white. However, a word of warning: children, animals and fake tan should we kept at a safe distance . Where many get white wrong is to think of it as pure and innocent: all frothy communion lace and virginal nighties. But make no mistake, white takes guts and lashings of chutzpah to wear. Look at Camille Charriere in her white mini dress, served with a side of sass via the super short hemline and badass black knee high boots. It’s a look that’s all about contrasts, and we want in.
