Feathers Fashion - How To Nail The Season's Fluffiest Trend
We're all the Swan Princess in this fairytale
From deep, feathered cuffs on statement dresses, through to stealthy feather trims on otherwise minimalist items and all manner of feathered accessories, feathers are this season's answer to ruffles and tulle and everyone from Prada through to more affordable (but still high fashion) brands like Loeffler Randall are here to stock your wardrobes with fluff. So, hop on this feathers fashion trend immediately with one of the suggestions below.
1. Feather Trim
A subtle, but pointed way of hopping aboard the feathers fashion trend is with a feather trim. Whether it's Sleeper's PJs with fluffy trouser hems or feather trim on an otherwise formal or tailored dress (like this shirt dress), a feather trim is an excellent way to add a playful element to your outfit.
16Arlington is a go-to for evening wear and this season, also for feather trim.
16Arlington - £1,350
Sleeper feather trimmed pyjamas - £245
Prada feather trimmed jeans - £790
2. Feathered Cuffs
Less subtle than the feather trim, the giant feather cuff is a statement. It's ostentatious fashion at its best.
Huishan Zhang Alma Feather-Trimmed Sequinned Tulle Gown - £1960
P.A.R.O.S.H. long feather detail dress - £581
3. Feathers As Art
This is about feathers incorporated into the design of the piece, rather than feathers as an afterthought or trim.
Roksanda Audra feather-embellished fil coupé gown (70% off) - £2,400
Christopher Kane feather-trimmed crepe gown - £1695
4. Feathered Shoes
A dash of something playful, the feathery shoe is an instant uplift for any outfit. Whether you're in for the feathery mules, formerly the preserve of stay-at-home wives in their babydolls, or you want something even more extravagant, there is a feather shoe for everyone.
Nora Aytch Farah beige feather slippers - £180
Amina Muaddi purple feather and embellished heels - £615
5. Feathers By Stealth
It might masquerade as a functional, formal or stiffly tailored garment, but sneaking out from a seam or under a lapel is a flirtatious feathery embellishment.
Philosophy Di Lorenzo Serafini ivory feather-trimmed jumper - £445
Wales Bonner feather-trimmed double-breasted woven blazer - £1,895
6. Feathered Headbands
Feathered headpieces are literally everywhere this season and a great winter accessory.

Alessandra Rich white feather headband - £168
