So I know this isn't a new trend, but I can't seem to pull myself away from swingy strings (witness here and here). I love the way fringe moves- on a purse, on boots, on dresses, etc. And what better to wear to your holiday parties? It's as happy and lively as a reindeer jumper or santa aplique sweatshirt... and at times (meaning, always... except perhaps when said jumper is worn by a certain gentleman) sexier.
I've just bought a cheapie fringe shift from H&M, whilst lusting after all below:
Balmain has been fringey for a few seasons now. Above is from Fall RTW 08.
My personal favorite at the moment, Alessandro dell' Aqua... something to do with the combo of belts, boots and fringe (Spr RTW 09).
A bit more avant garde: Ann Demeulmeester sandwiched by Jil Sander (Spr RTW 09).

Oohh I think I know the fringe shift from H&M you're talking about! It's pretty awesome. I'd love to see how you style it!
I like Alessandro dell' Aqua the best[ not only because he has the coolest last name in the history of the world]
Ooo shimmy and shake. I think you have a love of fringe similar and equal to my love of sequins and floral prints. Just something about it keeps drawing you back! The Demeulmeester is magic. It would take guts and a very flat chest to wear the fringe with nothing on underneath though!
I love Balmain fringe from Fall RTW 08! the white dress is tdf
Hi there-I adore the fringe look too, I'll rock this trend when I find the right piece!!
I"m totally with Franco. That name just grabbed me.
I got a fringe jacket from TopShop. Need to pick it up from the tailor!
will y'all be putting up a pic of yourself in the h&m dress? would like to see a nice affordable variety ha!
I nearly brought home my uncle's suede fringe vest from the 60s over Thanksgiving, but I knew I just couldn't pull it off. I should have my mom send it to you, Lauren.
You'll need to show us your fringe!
I love it...LOVE LOVE IT!!!
belts, boots and fringe??
how could i possibly resist??
It's so nice when something you love becomes fashionable. So many trends are just...downright objectionable to me, but fringe is a joy.=)
i had the loveliest fringe back, an old, leather, vintage one, it was my mothers...but it was so old it eventually fell apart...i miss it, fringe is so great.
Ok, that's it, I'm bringing out my vintage fringe dress that I haven't worn since Halloween 1994, LOL.
i think i tried on the fringe dress you'er talking about it! it was so fun to move around in it with the fringe moving back and forth!
"that" gentlemen is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo FINE!!!!!! I'm a Firth fan all the way
