Guide to Peplum Belts

The peplum look has often been commented on by critics in the fashion world as difficult to pull off, but one thing is sure - peplums are fun and unique. Today, it is still visible on the runway just as often as shifts. And its definitely a look that both slim girls and plus-sized girls can wear.

 

Origin of the Peplum

The heydays of peplum fashion were in the 1940s to 1980s, and it has been around long before then. In fact, there were instances when this silhouette was seen as far back as Ancient Greece. During the Classical period, the Greeks wore an outfit called the peplos. This is where the termpeplumoriginated. It was made of a long tube of fabric that was draped and tied at the waist, then cinched to create the peplum shape.

 

A more structured version of the peplum came into fashion during the Renaissance. This version has the peplum flared outward over the hips, rather than draping across the body. It resurfaced during the Victorian era as a predecessor to the bustle.

 

During the 1940s, the peplum has become what it looks like today. Christian Diors New Look was very popular at that time, and it became what every woman wanted to imitate the stylish, classic hourglass shape. It was less structured than its predecessors, but it provided plenty of volume. It faded out of popularity by the 1950s, but resurfaced again in the 1980s, when the flared waistline was back in fashion. The 80s version of the peplum began at the hips rather than the waist.

 

With the current trend in fashion that revives nostalgic trends of the past, the peplum has made a comeback since 2011. Thanks to Jil Sanders Spring 2011 collection, the style has been slowly reintroduced to womens wardrobes.
