Peplum hemlines are hot on the fashion agenda again this season and can certainly add a touch of pizazz and class to any outfit from shift dresses and pencil skirts to jackets and tops. The peplum style can easily be included into your special evening wear wardrobe. Making a sophisticated and chic statement to your midriff and waistline perfectly.

At Very.co.uk they have a great collection of pieces featuring peplum hems to choose from. Whether its a cardigan or jacket or jazzy top or evening dress, you will be spoilt for choice.

Lipsy London peplum Hot Pink and Black Dress
With the thought of Christmas coming and the party season beginning why not opt for one of their stunning evening dresses, like this one by Lipsy, London. The hot pink and black lace patterned strapless dress features a cut away detail at the neckline and boasts a black panel inserted underneath for added depth and dimension. To complete your look just add your favourite pair of sassy high heels, an oversized clutch and faux fur shrug with some understated jewellery and you’ll be ready to party all night long.

Very.co.uk also have some beautiful sequined tops available. So you can team a pair of plain black tailored trousers with a heavily embellished peplum top with an asymmetric hemline for a more demure yet alluring outfit.

Linea Stretch Woven Peplum Colourblock Dress
House of Fraser – Peplum Colourblock Dress
For your working wardrobe why not try the timeless shift dress with the updated twist – the peplum hemline. House of Fraser offer a variety of outfits with a peplum waistline but one of my favorites for that all important meeting or to make an instant great impression is this black and deep reddish brown colour block jersey dress by Linea.

The dress features a square neckline and small cap sleeves with a side peplum hem detail in the brown colour and is finished off with a black skirt. This dress offers you a stunning silhouette and is a great alternative from just wearing all black but keeping you smart, elegant and comfortable for a busy day at the office.

There are various types of material used in these items from a neoprene-like fabric which adds a modern and technical feel to a feminine peplum dress to give it the precise tailored look with a figure-skimming fit. Some tops feature a frill like peplum hem and this lends itself to a vintage-chic style, making it a great way to enhance our waistline and hips.

Take a chance this year and go chic and sassy with a peplum piece. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate our womanly curves and create a beautiful hourglass silhouette.
