Reach for the Thigh S/S 11

[Spike413]

This season is shaping up to be all about the legs, or one of them anyway. Thigh high slits were everywhere in New York.

I noticed this as well and I like it, it's sexy without being too much. It fits the assymetrical trend well. But I like it when it's done without cleavage, with cleavage it's a bit too versace for me.

Great thread as usual Spike

^ I totally agree. There's something so sexy about this trend. I especially love it when its directly on the side and you really only see the leg as the woman walks.

Note how most of the looks posted are the longer hemline - it's designers keeping the length sexy.
It looks great.

If we're talking about slits, I hope you'll excuse me mentioning slits up the back of clothes also, starting with Balenciaga and Bouchra Jarrar couture for winter, and then to Proenza Schouler and Isaac Mizhari (majorly) for spring.

Seems to be the trend this season and I too noticed it in many shows and it actually works. Showing skin but not too much. Love how the dresses move as the models walk..

This looks like something that can easily go wrong on some people..
