All kinds of loose knits are in style – especially crochet. Throw away your images of doilies and old folks because crochet is the new lace. It’s sexy, feminine and edgy and being worn in so many ways.
This Catherine Malandrino long crocheted dress is stunning but if you can’t afford the designer pieces there is a ton of crochet to be found in vintage shops right now. An over sized crochet sweater is perfect with cut-offs in the park or with an under slip and chunky heels for a night time look.
I remember going to Cuba years ago and there were so many crocheted swim suits – I thought that they looked great but mighty impractical as a bathing suit. I wonder if they are selling better these days? Who knows, but for certain you will be seeing crochet all over the place this summer.
