It is one of the dresses that is one of the trends for this winter.
The peplum dress is one of the strongest bets of this winter. But I have doubts about its famed ability to create slimmer silhouettes, you can even hide the most persistent fats is true, but if you look at it very carefully the waist does seem slimmer, quite the contrary, women who wear seem fatter. It is not a model appropriate for all types of bodies. You may disagree of course, but follow my reasoning, this dress was part of new look Dior in postwar, in the '50s, a time when a Europe dilapidated by war needed a new direction and more children to be born and you may wonder what all this has to do with it? Everything. Fashion is always a reflection of an era and it is the small details that we found a portrait of a society, of in a certain lifestyle. If you look carefully the peplum dress highlights the hips, extending it, subliminally brings us to mind fertile bodies. It may seem far-fetched, but it is not. Over the centuries fashion played a very prominent as a marker of social class, but not only. Somehow it also reflected the great changes that marked a particular historical period in time. In the Middle Ages, the dresses were cut at chest level with the aim of highlighting the belly, women seemed pregnant constantly and that was important nonverbal image in a world ravaged by plague. And more examples I could enunciate, what interests me is to decode the trends and in this case the peplum dress is a reflection of an aging continent, in the middle of an economic crisis, a time not very conducive for more children being born and now you believe what I trying to say?
