Feathers Are This Season’s Most Unexpected Trend

Everyone from Margot Robbie to Celine Dion are obsessed

They say birds of a feather flock together, and this party season it looks like the A-listers are out here to prove it.  The feather trend has been seen on the likes of Ariana Grande, Kendall Jenner and Margot Robbie (just to name a few), and seems to be the stars trend of choice this season. 

Whether it’s Christopher Kane’s modern, fluff-trimmed dress as seen on Alexa Chung or Attico’s Flamino-esque, all-over-feather dress Kylie Jenner chose for her 22nd birthday celebrations, or Staud’s patent box bags trimmed with the prominent trend – feathers are everywhere.

While both playful and opulent, the sartorial plumage adds a touch of glamour to everyday wear, not to mention makes one incredible party outfit. The trend has even trickled down under, with Australian brands and stars putting their own twist on it.

While it can seem daunting to style these statement-making buys with your existing wardrobe, you can offset the theatrical overtones by teaming with more masculine designs. Add a simple t-shirt, boyfriend jeans or a loose blazer to create the perfect hi-lo combo.
