Attention-seeking tassels, pom-poms and faux fur
FAUX fur, fringing, ruffles, pom-poms, mohair, tassels, knits or any kind of texture will bring depth to a photo for instant Insta-appeal.
‘Playing around with different fabrics will keep things interesting by giving your image a multi-dimensional effect,’ says photographer Sara McKinnon. British brand Shrimps
( shrimps. co. uk) knows how to work this Instatrend well. The fluffy rainbow-hued faux fur coats were a runaway success when they launched a few years ago thanks to endless photos of celebrities and influencers wearing them.
This summer’s Insta It-bag doing the rounds on social media was the Antonia beaded box bag made from a cluster of faux pearls.
Meanwhile, the pom-pom trend encompasses everything from earrings to edging on bags, details on clothing and even interiors. Homeware is increasingly designed to be photogenic, too.
