Spring 12
Trend summary
Hi-lo hems ranged from very high cut with a long train, to versions with more subtle differences in hemline. Used mainly on dresses, the trend also crossed over to tops such as tunics.
How to buy it
Especially relevant for the occasionwear market, hi-lo hemlines look elegant and can be worn by younger or older customers, according to style. The structured styles as seen at Peter Pilotto are more directional but floaty chiffon will be great for summer events.
