TiC Surf: Aboard The Marrakech Express
I'm sure any girl reading this knows about harem pants making it big on the fashion scene lately, along with silk scarves, flowing tunics, and headbands. It seems like the Moroccan look is in again ladies, something Style.com refers to as the "Marrakech Express". Let's take a look at some of the key looks of Spring/Summer 2009.
* From L-R: Diane von Furstenberg / Comptoir des Cotonniers / Jaeger London / Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti
As much as I try, I can't seem to find anything wrong with this trend. Loose, baggy clothing in a lovely assortment of colours and comfortable flats on your feet, what's there to complain about? Comfort is finally in! :) Take advantage of the constant sunny weather in our part of the world and go all in.
* From L-R: Gucci / Etro / Ralph Lauren / Peter Som
For this look, think Ali Baba meets Indiana Jones on a Moroccan holiday. Flowy prints aren't the only hits this season, include tailored safari jackets, earthy colours, and the sexy female adventurer look alà Ralph Lauren above.
* From L-R: 3.1 Phillip Lim / Anna Sui / Aquilano.Rimondi / Chloé
