Trend spotting: The return of the off-shoulder top

Trend spotting: The return of the off-shoulder top

The flirty silhouette is also regaining momentum in Pakistan, spotted on everything from cocktail tops to your cholis.

Dare to bare those shoulders? If there's one trend worth playing with this season, it's the off-shoulder top.

If Kendall Jenner is doing it, there must be something to it.

The best part? You don't have to feel conscious about your shoulders; there is no "ideal" shoulder — so you can spare yourself the agony and anxiety one experiences when wearing a crop top.

We spotted some of our favourite It-girls of fashion rocking the trend. Some dressed it up while others kept it casual, a testament to just how versatile it is.

How cute does Amo B look in this classy black Misha Lakhani top?

If you want to jump on to the bandwagon, you can turn to local designers like Misha Lakhani.

Zara Shahjahan and Shehla Chatoor aren't too far behind either.

Less is more when you're wearing an off-shoulder top; don't go crazy with accessories

The little hint of skin makes structured outfits more romantic and the look is a total confidence booster. Give it a try — it was undoubtedly the neckline of the summer and it doesn't seem like this cut is going anywhere any time soon!
