Fall 2009 Trend: Racking Up Sensual Silhouettes

Posted by: Sasha Manuel In: Fashion

Weather turning chilly wouldn’t automatically mean a losing battle for sexy ensembles. Come Fall season, women may very well enjoy the luxury of parading their, er, racks as fashion turns to a trend that leans to the more sensually, and not to mention, sexually stimulating silhouettes.

Note the design similarities between the pink number from Marc Jacobs and the chic Bottega Veneta dress. The latter takes on an almost nude-esque effect which adds onto its sensual allure. Both added appliques and ruched fabrics, accordingly. These details break an otherwise monotonous dress make, while emphasizing the waistline (the narrowness of it, if you may) then finishing it off with a thin belt to highlight the design more. Also, notice how they’re narrowed at the hem, aka pencil-cut. The thin material used would require that the wearer leave bras and knickers at home, me thinks. Brrr. That ought to be a real sacrifice just for the sake of being stylish. Dear me.

Can anyone really wear something like it without needing a coat or a cardi? What’s the use of going through all the trouble of picking out an outfit like it when you’ll end up hiding it anyway? I guess, heaters will make them viable to wear. But it’ll limit you indoors, yes?
