Kendall Jenner Just Wore the Casual Dress Trend That's All Over the High Street Right Now
Even when strolling across the seafront in Ibiza, Kendall Jenner is never off the clock when it comes to styling the season's most important trends. Taking her keen eye for fashion to the Balearic island, the model transcended basic beachside style with the help of a carefully chosen dress trend this week.
Jenner chose to layer her black-and-white striped knit dress from Australian brand Dissh over her black bikini, which added a stylish and sophisticated edge to a casual combination. The style fell to the ankle and skimmed her body, illustrating an understated yet elegant silhouette that helped her look put-together under the hot Spanish sun. This dress style has worked its way into the suitcases of those I look to for style inspiration, and the striped knit dress trend has become a major player in fashion people's wardrobes—and not just for the summer months.
Jenner styled her monochrome maxi with rectangular sunglasses and a large black handbag, proving how elegant a simple striped dress dress can look. Although Jenner chose to wear hers atop her black bikini for the warm climate, when autumn rolls around, the trend will look just as good styled over tights with tall boots, or worn with a vintage leather jacket and Mary Janes.
They are a mainstay in many a wardrobe, but I've noticed a slew cropping up across the high street. I've found elegant versions of this new-season trend at Marks and Spencer, H&M, and & Other Stories, as well as across designer labels including Zimmermann and Cara Cara.
