Another trend that most of you would have anticipated on the list of 2012 trends - peplum. The peplum, having originated back in the 19th century, is the extra flounce at the waist line and can be found in the form of dresses, tops and even outerwear like jackets or coats.
The trend was big back in 2008/2009 with the likes of Christian Dior, Jonathan Saunders and Roland Mouret, just to name a few, having presented several peplum pieces in their runway collections. Now the trend is back with a bang and this elegant and feminine style has been well received all around Hollywood.
