Trend spotting: Cut-outs are ripping through the fashion scene

Trend spotting: Cut-outs are ripping through the fashion scene

The on-off-on again trend extends a flirty peek-a-boo effect sans fear of over-exposing.

As the temperature drops, crop tops will have to move to the back of the cupboard and be replaced by the strategically slashed cut-outs.

When our Instagram feed started to fill up with the movers and shakers of the industry rocking the trend, we realized why it becoming such a favourite. While cut-outs are provocative, they still manage to give off a ladylike vibe; it's true when they say less is more.

The playful silhouette was a popular choice at the Lux Style Awards this year.

Everyone loves a black dress with a twist.

This Ayesha Farooq Hashwani formal bares the midriff but makes up for it by keeping the sleeves long -- it's all about balance.

One of the things we love about Alia Bhatt is that she doesn't try to be overtly sexy at such a young age; she gets that a little sliver of skin goes a long way.

Feeling blue? ;) #starguild

A trend's no trend unless it's been endorsed by the style queen Malaika Arora Khan

It's evident that it's not about what designers put in but what they leave out which matters now.

Fashion like this is divisive as 90% of your population can't follow such trends and therefore creates ill will.
