The Kimono Craze


Is it a scarf? Nooo. Is it a robe? Nooo. Is it a cape? Well, no, but it could be. As the title betrays we are talking about one of summer’s most coveted trends – the KIMONO – regardless of its cut (and they come in millions of them) it always adds just the right amount of razzmatazz to a look, to the point that even if you’re at home, in your worst shorts or PJ’s, and throw one on, you’ll end up looking fabulous while having coffee
The Coachella music festival as I mentioned in an earlier post (http://spreadingthequirky.blogspot.com/2014/05/coachella.html) gave rise to the massive festival trend, which in turn led to craze of the kimono trend. I absolutely love this cover up it’s incredibly feminine and very sexy, it’s Boho chic, western cool, St. Tropez glamorous, effortlessly chic, gypsy knock out beauty, rock ‘n roll, feminine, grungy, posh hobo – incredibly trendy. It comes in a many styles from long, short, midi, prints, fringes, silky, oversized, etc. My personal favorite Kimono are the ones with fringes!
The kimono trend is so popular that New Look has sold one kimono every minute last summer in Europe. If there’s one must have item this summer in has got to be the Kimono

How to wear kimonos

Just throw one on. They do look best with shorts, short dresses or skirts, bustier tops, tank tops, over swimsuits, and over anything you’d actually rock on a hot summer night or day. Wear it as a silky jacket or as a rock ‘n roll sophisticated cover up. Wear it to jazz up any outfit
