Bringing Fashion Home: Crochet

When you think of crochet first thing that comes to mind may be a doily or grandma’s hand-knit blanket. For you fashionistas, you should know that it’ll be one of the hottest trends this upcoming spring season! Popular with more cream-colored and earthy tones, crochet dresses are ideal for layering over a swimsuit and are better for daywear. From a sophisticated, hippy style, to a bold boho look by adding extra fringing, the aesthetic of crochet is still luxurious with a modern sense of refinement. For those that weren’t born with crochet skills, like myself, it’ll be easy to take on this popular trend right into your homes. Add an impression of elegance to the room & get that chic look, with a modern twist. Take a look at what these designers manifested with the art of crochet.
