Balmain ankle boots

Zip it up: and not just because the autumn is around the corner.

For a few seasons already, they have been a regular feature in ready-to-wear, adorning clothes everywhere, from the backs of dresses, to the front of skirts and coat, before straight, later on  slanted.

Exposed zippers were everywhere on the AW 09/10 collections popping up in some pretty unexpected places: more than function they are become a decorative motif in fashion and for this season especially in accessories, on everything from hair bands to stilettos, giving them a ultra modern 80s look.

Zippers give any outfit an edgy/punk rock look and the effect is a tough-chic look almost anyone looks good in.

It’s a style directive you’ll definitely want to follow: a great way to add a little edge to your every day look.
