S/S 20 Trend - Bra's and Lingerie

Who would have thought that bra's and lingerie would be the must have trend of SS20?...worn as outerwear I must add! Exposed bra's have long been a street style favourite of supermodels, who flaunt their flat toned stomachs by teaming bra's with tailored blazers for their take on casual street style dressing. We've also seen the bralet being championed by Dior and Dolce and Gabbana for many a season now - leading to it becoming an instantly recognisable staple for both these brands. But for SS20 this trend translated onto the runway in a major way, with countless designers sending models down the runway wearing sheer and structured bra's. These bra's were worn with such nonchalance, styled with loose fitting trousers and flowing skirts. And it wasn't just actual bra's that were seen, several designers also created the illusion of a bra with bra-like detailing on the dresses (JW Anderson and Christopher Kane).
Whilst we might be used to seeing the Hadid's hailing a cab in the East Village wearing just a simple bra, it may not be the most practical of trend to translate to the average woman - I mean you wouldn't turn up to the office wearing just a singular bra would you? But alas this is fashion, where trends need not be practical!

Key Designers: Burberry, Chloe, Christopher Kane, Christian Dior, Isabel Marant, J.W Anderson, Khaite, Loewe, Missoni, Mugler, Prabal Gurung, Proenza Schouler, Jonathan Simkhai, Tom Ford
