Volume
Leave it to Lanvin to not only promote a voluminous ’80s silhouette through a full-skirted mini dress, but also with embellished flowers that provide even more of a 3D vibe as the garment flows through the wind.

Carwashing
Chloé took the 1960s carwash trend to the next level, crafting full dresses of colorful ribbon-like material.
Christian Dior also drew inspiration from the 1960s, going totally mod for Spring. What materialized was a chic parade of mini skirts, matching sets, halter shift dresses, and matching color block coats.
