The ’60s shift features a mini skirt hemline along with a very boxy, almost shapeless body.
It is often sleeveless, but it can feature long sleeves.
The look was originally made popular by designer Mary Quant in the ’60s.
“If you look at girls in the ’50s, most of them are dressed like their mothers.
She changed all of that.”
Hemlines got shorter, and the shift dress emerged as an emblem of the Swinging Sixties.
As 2024 approaches, the look seems to be making a comeback.
Designer Giorgio Armani is at the helm of the trend for 2024.
They instantly draw the eye, too.
Layer it up
Just one layer?
Never enough at least not in 2024.
Layers are one of the hot looks of the runways for nearly all of the 2024 shows.
Get creative with how and what you layer this coming year.

Sculptural pieces
Clothes don’t always have to hang limply off our bodies.
They can also become artful sculptures that take on a life of their own.
In 2024, expect to see sculptural garments on the rise.
Be on the lookout for structured shapes that make a big statement.
Unlike a good fringe, a sculpted piece is static and has no movement at all.
Designers like Robert Wun and Schiaparelli have mastered the look.
We love this trend for nights out or other special occasions.
Transparent skirts
Skirts are in but only if we can see straight through them!

Go for old school high rise a la Jockey.
