Shift to the Sixties
Storming to the top of every fashionista’s wish list, the humble shift dress has made a mighty fashion comeback for autumn winter 2011. Stalking the catwalks of the most influential designers, collections from Burberry Prorsum to Prada swung to the Sixties, stripping style back to the classically simple lines of the perfectly proportioned shift. Rock the retro shape by working it with fierce footwear making it every inch a 2011 trend, it’s the ultimate in effortlessly chic dressing for the modern woman.
