While fashion is plotting a tulle takeover so should your daily-wear arsenal
When you think of tulle, do you only think of the highly-embellished couture ensembles or the magnificent silhouettes in layers and layers of tulle walking the ramp or A-listers gracing the Red Carpet in princess-y gowns? If yes, you surely have understated the fashion possibilities of this utterly beautiful and versatile fabric – transcending from the 50s and 60s precious garment to today’s playful fabric – tulle has come a long way. Being reworked in shorter (than the miles long trails) and more casual silhouettes, tulle in today’s fashion has a rather more functional approach without compromising on its whimsical vibe.
Do you recall Carrie Bradshaw strolling down the avenues of New York sporting the classic tutu-and-tank look for the intro of the ‘Sex and the City’? Well, that’s exactly the vibe! After being a popular fabric for the partywear dresses, tulle is penetrating your everyday wardrobe making it nothing less than an interesting fusion of comfort, style, and playfulness.
Here’s to breaking the stereotype that tulle is meant for decorative dressing with our hand-picked list of products that will make your everyday wardrobe workwear-to-casualwear, all the more interesting and glamorous. Let see what we’ve added to your cart.
