Sunday Fashion Finds - Peplum

What is peplum? This is a short flared, gathered or pleated strip of fabric attached at the waist of a woman's jacket, dress, blouse or skirt.  I find this silhouette very flattering for most of women body types.  For example, if you have smaller hips and would like to enhance the appearance of it - peplum will do just that.  At the same time, if you would like to minimize the appearance of your hips - strategically positioned peplum  will do it as well by balancing proportions of your figure.  I am glad this silhouette is back and already planned one new piece with peplum in my wardrobe.  Here is my selection of the examples for this trend via Vogue Italia
