trend report: the crop top revival



Madonna, Britney Spears, The Spice Girls, Gwen Steffani and many other girls tried this look more than one time during the 80s, 90s and early 2000, and now, it’s out again, so start building up those abs because the cropped tops are back.

Since most of designers went for pants, long skirts and maxi dresses this spring season, they had to look for other areas to show off in a woman’s body and it seems they decided that it was time to bare the belly once again. And not only did we see cropped tops on the runway, we also got to see some shows where bra-baring looked miraculously classy and chic; Thakoon, Alexander Wang and Tommy Hilfiger are three of them that mastered it. The key is to layer the sport’s top or bra under a blazer, a vest or an oversized shirt.


Cropped tops are becoming more popular every day; they’re not as uncovered as bra-baring and they can be paired up with high waisted pants, shorts or skirts; leaving only a line of tummy exposed.
