Baroque Flourishes in 2012 Fashion Week

Share This Post

Exuberant, grandiose, exaggerated, and dramatic – these are words that come to mind when we hear of the word “baroque”. Baroque being a period when art momentously flourished and when artists were very particular with intricate details and conveying rich drama also brought with it great flair in fashion history.

This year, notable designers bring a touch of baroque to the latest fashion trends. We’re not talking about high waistlines, voluminous sleeves and heavy fabrics though. The latest fashion goes baroque with ornamental designs finely embroidered in luxurious fabrics or incorporated into the fabrics themselves. Bold patterns and trimmings give an air of royalty and opulence. Look majestic in this current fashion trend with streamlined dresses and blouses that flatter your figure and provide visual pleasure.
