Exaggerated Shoulders Were The Standout Style At The 2021 Oscars
Yes, the look is easy to wear IRL.
With fashion month over weeks ago, you’re likely in need of some fresh spring style inspiration. Well, you’re in luck, because the final night of the 2021 award show season is here to provide just that. And if you tuned in to the star-studded event, you probably noticed that exaggerated shoulders at the 93rd Annual Academy Awards were the statement style that stood out from the rest.
If you follow the trend cycle closely, it’s probably not a huge shock that a handful of celebrities opted for the eye-catching shoulder look for the 2021 Oscars. Because as it turns out, the silhouette has been prominent in the fashion scene for some time now. For starters, the puff-sleeve trend has been gaining momentum over the past few years, and by the looks of it, isn’t slowing down any time soon. And as of late, dramatic, structured shoulders dominated at Paris Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2021 where designers like Balmain, Givenchy, and Coperni (just to name a few) showcased the trendy style.
Below, take a glimpse at the exaggerated shoulder dresses that made their way on to the red carpet at the 2021 Oscars. Don’t be afraid to test-drive the look yourself this season with a blouse or summery dress.
