Kimono tops
mis à jour le 4 May 2019 à 13:14One of the winning trends this summer is inspired by Asia! Find out why we love it and the best pocket-friendly versions from the highstreet
From Prada to Dries Van Noten, Asia was the winning continent this summer with many designers taking inspiration from our exotic land.
But one item stood out in particular: the kimono top.
Based on the traditional Japanese costume, the kimono top is a versatile statement piece which is breezy and flattering making it the perfect must-have item for the summer.
We especially love the casual take on the trend when mixing a cotton blend version with trousers or shorts to create a comfortable and uber stylish look.
Kimono tops can also be dressy and chic. Pick a silk or chiffon one with floral print and layer it over a lingerie-inspired black slip dress for a sultry evening look.
So if you like this trend as much as we do, here are our picks of the best highstreet versions of the kimono top which won’t break the bank - yet place you high on the style stakes.
Come on then, grab one and get your Geisha platforms on!
