Last Updated on April 6, 2022

Is it just me, or are cut out dresses literally everywhere?

I’m all about reusing and reworking items in your wardrobe. There’s no need to spend money needlessly, and with so many trends coming and going, not all of them are going to make the cut.

But if you’re in the market for a new dress this season, make it the cut out dress.

According to the global search platform Lyst, demand for cut out dresses has tripled compared to last year.

We’ve seen this trend time and time again, most notably on the AW21 runway, with designers such as Givenchy, David Koma, Temperley, Halpern, Off-White and Emilia Wickstead embracing gowns with slices missing from the sides, backs and shoulders of the garment to reveal a hint of skin.

It didn’t take long for stars to follow suit, with Hailey Bieber, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Kim Kardashian embracing the trend wholeheartedly.

The cut out dress is once again back to the forefront making it the perfect choice for the summer months, it’s versatility means it can be worn both day-to-day and to pretty much any occasion you can think of.

The cut out piece has been around for some time, but it’s going no where fast. If you’ve been waiting to see how long-lasting the trend would be before joining in, here’s your sign to get involved.
