For too long, metallic clothes have been solely reserved for special occasions. We whip out our shiniest pieces on days we deem glitziest—birthdays, New Year’s Eves, winter holidays (really, winter holiday parties) and that’s it. In 2012, a wise woman encouraged us all to “shine bright like a diamond,” but we’ve only partially internalized this message. We choose to unleash the sparkliest sides of our selves only three or four days each year, leaving us with a whopping 360 (or more) days when we’re simply dulling our shines.
If wearing metallic pieces on any regular ol’ day is taboo, wearing metallic pieces on any regular ol’ summer day is absolutely verboten. Because summer is about bright colors and bold prints; our palettes are so maximalist that we simply restrict our textile selection to one or two weather-appropriate options. Leathers, corduroys and cords be gone—summer is here, and we’re linen/denim people now!
But summer 2019 has offered us a different texture landscape to take advantage of. Not only are sequins veritably trendy, but metallic fabrics abound. Shiny silvers and golds are so abundant, you’d think it was December (though the skimpy, summer-facing silhouettes might tell you otherwise). We’re experiencing a straight-up metallic clothing renaissance—and in the middle of May, at that. In times like these, there’s really only one thing left to do: shop.
