With the season’s bohemian chic trend in full force, distressed and faded accents have officially been elevated from sartorial no-no’s to wardrobe must-haves. This season, frayed edges and hems are en vogue once again and have made a statement on the Spring/Summer 2016 runways. Whether you’re lounging at the cottage or taking care of business in the weeks ahead, here are a few chic ways to embrace the trend now.

Casual Chic

For a laidback Saturday, try slipping into a black sleeveless romper with a high neckline and slightly frayed edges (as spotted on the Edun runway). The look of destroyed fringe accents and decorative buttons helps to wrap up the style. Meanwhile, black and white loafers and a black leather satchel add a perfect accessorizing finish.

Work Wear

While this rebellious trend may not seem like an appropriate look for the workday, taking your cues from the Derek Lam catwalk may be a smart move. Try slipping into a white mid-length frock with a fitted cut, round neckline and flared silhouette. For a finishing touch, three quarter-length bell sleeves and strappy flat sandals can easily bring your outfit to life.

Evening

For the after hours, look no further than the Versace runway for your sartorial inspiration. Whether you’re on your way to a nightclub or a house party, step out in a short, frayed frock with a cut-out neckline. The look of purple, orange and green sections can easily bring the dress to life, while sequins create an intricate effect. Meanwhile, vibrant orange platform sandals help to accentuate your leg line for the illusion of statuesque proportions.
