The flattering trend that has been showing up all over town is most defiantly shirring. Shirring, often called ruching, is folds of gathered fabric that forms to your body to enhance and perfect in all the right places. This trend can be found on all body types and looks good on everyone. As seen on the red carpet, this trend dawned celebrities like Nicole Kidman at the 2011 Grammy’s, Natalie Portman at the 2011 Academy Awards, and Mila Kunis at the 2011 Screen Actors Guild Awards. Not only is this trend hitting the runways and draped along A-list stars, it is making its way into 2011 women’s swimwear. With shirred busts, fronts, and sides, it’s no doubt you’ll look a size smaller and feel great in your swimwear this season.
