Sequins reappeared on the runways for Spring 2010 proving yet again that the trend toward sartorial bling is here to stay, recession or not. But in light of the way designers have been rethinking this shiny adornment for day, night and day-to-night, it should come as no surprise: Sequins can still be luxe, as seen on Lanvin's Paris runways, and sequins can still shimmer on cocktail dresses—albeit the quite unconventional party frocks presented on the models at Miu Miu. But sequins can increasingly come to be equated with day, as illustrated by a very wearable 3.1 Phillip Lim collection which included sequin embellished tops, skirts and a standout sequin blazer. So the choice is yours, celebrate spring with some sparkles in quantities big and small, because you are going to see a lot of them in stores!
