Speak to a fashion insider about glitter clothes and they will point you towards a shimmery dress. For a beauty lover however, these words mean an entirely different thing!
Glitter clothing is a risqué trend that veers far from any type of attire. Essentially, it involves covering yourself in body glitter… and nothing else. What keeps this fad from going out of hand are the chunky glitter particles. The sparkles adhere to your body to create the illusion of clothes, without revealing too much skin. You can use the glitter to create a jazzy top or a pair of leggings or even a bodysuit.
Brands such as Go Get Glitter and The Gypsy Shrine are the innovators in this field. The former also provides a water soluble glue to help make the particles stick. Whilst you can pick from an array of colours, most of the glitters come in a cool, holographic finish.
Although we aren’t bold enough to rock this trend, we think it’s interesting to see different expressions of body art. What are your thoughts on this crazy trend?
