The Edit: Off The Shoulder

This Off the Shoulder neckline trend was cropping up all over the spring/summer 13 catwalks, with the likes of Balmain and Kenzo sending models down the runway flashing their shoulders to the world. This trend is most definitely a sexy but subtle way of showing a little skin this summer, drawing attention to those lovely shoulders that spend so much of the year hidden under jumpers, away from the unpredictable British weather!
