The peplum has made a comeback for Spring/Summer 2012. I use the term “comeback” because in the 20th century the peplum style was popular both in the 1940’s and the 1980’s. The word “Peplum” is derived from the Greek word peplos (meaning shawl).
A peplum [ˈpɛpləm] is defined as follows:
1. (Clothing & Fashion) a flared ruffle attached to the waist of a jacket, bodice, etc.
2. (Clothing & Fashion) a variant of peplos
Maybe you did not know, but there are two types of peplum- fitted and flared. If you want to show the feminine figure, the perfect choice is fitted, but if you want to add curves to your hips choose flared peplum. Also, you can find peplum tops, skirts and dresses so pretty much everyone can decide which piece suits you best, of course, if you like this trend.
I love it... celebs love it...It's definitely here to stay!
