20 Ways to Wear Spring’s Shirting Trend
Something so timeless and classic as a button-down shirt shouldn’t seem like a trend, but we couldn’t help but notice that this spring, things are feeling much more buttoned-up. Shirting fabrics were omnipresent on the runways; banker blues and stripes and white cotton poplin were shown at Alexander Wang, Balenciaga, Michael Kors, Dior, and more. And in addition to traditional, long-sleeve oxfords, shirting was used in rompers, on crop tops and in supersize volumes.
