As Australia heats up, so to do our wardrobe choices, something thatโs been evident over the past few weeks as midriffs come back into view. Unlike last summer where Bella Hadid-inspired crop tops reigned supreme, this seasonโs starring number comes in the form of cutout dresses, worn on everyone from our style crush Rosie-Huntington Whiteley to ultra cool Zendaya over the past few weeks.
Whatโs even better is that Australian and Kiwi designers are at the forefront of the trend with Christopher Esber (the designer behind Zendayaโs afformentioned red carpet moment), Dion Lee, Matteau, Manning Cartell, Paris Georgia and Georgia Alice all creating designs worthy of dropping all your Christmas present money on.
