WHAT'S WITH THE... FOIL WRAP DRESSES

 

TV stylist Hannah Sandling's take on star trends

It's not so much the runway as the red carpet that's been fuelling the current celebrity love-in with all things shiny. So whether it's sheeny satin or light reflecting lame, now's the time to give in to your magpie cravings.

 

How To Wear Them
* Follow the lead of Dita and Daisy and keep your bling to a minimum to avoid a full-on glitterball effect

 

How Not To Wear Them
* Remember that shiny fabrics can be shockingly unflattering, so don't be dazzled by the dress that you forget to check out the cut - listening, Denise?
