You should remember this simple styling trick

Born out of necessity, celebrated by fashion: tying shirts and jumpers around your hips is all the rage at the moment. Why this makes perfect sense in terms of style.

When I was scrolling through my Instagram feed the other day, I noticed that shirts and jumpers are currently being knotted around the hips everywhere. Foulards have already established themselves as hip jewellery this summer, and now shirts and jumpers are the autumnal answer to them.

A nod to the 90s

Tying shirts, jackets & Co. around your waist after a change in the weather to keep your hands free is nothing new. At the moment, however, the small handle is increasingly becoming a style statement again. «Again», because of course it's been around before. For example, in the grungy 90s and - not so long ago - in the mid-2010s.

Hips also want to be decorated

Even some designs reflect the trend of wrapping tops around the hips. For example, there are garments with tie details that resemble sleeves or skirts that look as if they are converted jumpers. A nice reminder that we don't always have to wear clothes the way they're meant to be worn - we can also use them for other purposes with a childlike sense of experimentation.

Has endless love for shoulder pads, Stratocasters and sashimi, but a limited tolerance for bad impressions of her Eastern Swiss dialect.
