PEEK-A-BOO MAKES A COMEBACK

THE FUN EXPERIMENT­AL TREND HAS LONG BEEN A FAVOURITE OF THE CELEBS, SO HERE IS HOW YOU CAN STYLE THEM FOR THE SPRING-SUMMER MONTHS!

A trend that had taken 2018 by rage is making an appearance again this year for the spring-summer months. The peek-aboo skirt trend, where fashionist­as have been teaming an unconventi­onal pair of a longer shirt dress or top with a shorter skirt so that the top’s hemline peeks out of the skirt, has become a fashion favourite with quite a few celebritie­s too.

Actress Shilpa Shetty was recently spotted showing off the trend twice — one with a flowy floral skirt and again with a white mini skirt. Actress Kajal Agarwal has also spotted sporting the look for a film. Last year Kriti Sanon and Shraddha Kapoor too sported the look flawlessly. With the fresh spring and summer looks coming in, experiment­ing with skirts seems to be a great idea.

Celebrity stylist Archa Mehta, who styled Kajal, says that the peek-a-boo trend is something anyone with any body type can pull off. “It doesn’t matter if you are curvy, petite, tall or lean. This is a fun experiment­al style which is very easy to pull off. If you are slightly on the shorter side, you can team a long skirt that reaches till the knees with a longer shirt dress with 3-4inches of its hemline peeking out. You can also team a lace skirt with a contrastin­g dress or long top that can be seen through the lacework.”

For accessoris­ing the look, celebrity stylist

Sanjay Kumar Dhauliya says, “A complement­ing belt is must with this layered look to take away the attention from any bulkiness that may show. Also, fun hairstyles like high ponytails look great! Hoops, layered bracelets and lots of rings are something one can easily style with this trend.”
