Stripes are Going Every Which Way

Make a statement with stripes 2023. Today it is all about piling them on and mixing vertical and horizontal, different widths and colors. Fashions and accessories with stripes are going in all directions and on everything from shoes, handbags, tops, masks, bottoms and dresses, etc. The great thing about stripes is everyone can wear them and they update your look.




It is important to choose clothing with stripes that are in proportion to your size.  You can mix thin stripes with wide stripes and stripes can be worn with florals, polka dots, checks and animal prints.

You can make a statement with vertically striped tops, pants or skirts. They can make you look taller and/or thinner. If your top/bust is heavy a small vertical stripe will help give you a more narrow look on top.

Horizontal stripe clothing is great for the pencil/boyish type figure or if you want to appear wider in certain areas of your body. Horizontal stripes in your hip area will give the appearance of wide hips. If worn on a top your bust area will appear to be larger.
