Famous fashion houses and models are trying to promote the trend of revealing stickers. This helps the accessory model not be too strange.
The image of Kendall Jenner wearing a daring dress by designer David Koma attracts attention. The design has a tight fit, creating accents with a flower pattern in leather, covering the bust. Red details become the highlight of the dress. The type of outfit that uses a chest patch as a highlight is not too strange. This trend has appeared on the red carpet with Cara Delevingne, Doja Cat.
Recently, many fashion houses actively promote the trend of using stylized patches to cover the chest. They included a daring outfit in their Ready-to-Wear collection. The promotion of famous designers and artists makes the sexy dress popular, used in everyday life.
Breast patch in everyday fashion
According to The Guardian , the breast patch that is usually located underneath the shirt is showing up openly. They are made with unique textures instead of the familiar nude stickers.
Schiaparelli is one of the fashion houses that make the trend of wearing outfits showing off unique busts become more famous. Attending the Billboard Music Awards, Doja Cat wore a bold design with a sharp horn pattern covering the first round of the French brand. The fashion house actively promotes this type of dress by introducing them in the Fall 2021, Spring 2022 and Fall 2022 collections.
Recently, Loewe attracted attention when promoting a dress that used leaves to cover her chest. The fashion house introduced an asymmetrical design, featuring a leaf-shaped chest patch in the Spring 2023 collection. This outfit was worn by Dakota Fanning at a dinner party in March.
Loewe’s dress model creates a unique and personal feeling. Meanwhile, the designs of David Koma show bold, sexy. This brand promotes outfits with chest patches in the Spring 2023, Fall 2023 collections. Kylie Jenner’s patch-revealing dress is in the Fall 2023 collection, valued at $ 1,515 .
In 1985, chest stickers appeared on the fashion catwalk of Thierry Mugler. However, at the time, the designs were deemed to have no applicability. In 2015, this trend appeared in the collection of Tom Ford, Saint Laurent. Fashion houses are pursuing a sexy, strong style.
Many fashion houses take advantage of the unique chest patch as a highlight for the outfit.
Jewelry round one
Sarah Thornton, author of Uplifting Sagas: The Top Half of Women’s Liberation , said: “It’s not unheard of to wear bras.” She further explains the unique stickers that became popular thanks to the Burlesque (artistic striptease show). Before that, women had no need to use or know about this accessory.
They are considered “chest jewelry”. In 1920, stickers were widely used to prevent dancers from breaking the anti-topless law. One of the reasons why breast patches are so popular is that materials like sequins, rhinestones, etc. are reasonably priced.
The main goal of the patch is to cover the bust. However, the use of stickers with unique designs is said to have a different meaning.
Fashion psychologist Carolyn Mair believes that Delevingne and Doja Cat use revealing outfits to attract attention and stimulate observation.
Artists promote this trend on the red carpet to attract attention. However, in daily life, the applicability of the design is still a question of interest to the fans.
Kendall Jenner, Bella Hadid combined everyday clothes with chest stickers. At the same time, Loewe, David Koma introduce designs that can be worn every day. Loewe’s asymmetrical dress is not too revealing. On the other hand, the model that covers the chest creates a sense of personality and difference. Meanwhile, David Koma’s dress has more see-through fabric on the upper body, helping to highlight accessories that cover the chest and limit revealing incidents.
In addition, at major music festivals, it has become familiar to show off chest stickers. They become an integral part of young people, helping them to express their individuality.
After a long time appearing in the fashion village, models of dresses showing chest stickers are gradually becoming more accepted.
