Now here's a trend we didn't see making a comeback. 

Thanks to Schiaparelli's A list favourite dress, the peplum looks like it’s about to come roaring back into fashion. Don’t believe us? Take it from Nicola Peltz who took to Instagram over the weekend to show off photos in her latest glam goth get up.

The Chippendales actress and wife of Brooklyn Beckham opted for a LBD from Schiaparelli,  which according to the brand is Look 12 from the collection and comprises, "A fitted bustier in plush black velvet is stitched with directional seams, ballooning at the hem in a buoyant peplum, a charmed zipper closing the back." It cinches above a black wool pencil skirt with golden nipple buttons down the back, (très risque.) The dress was previously seen back in October on The Crown's Vanessa Kirby. Unlike Vanessa, Nicola went for the full look including the maison’s statement surrealist ear-shaped earrings.

Schiaparelli SS23 Ready-To-Wear

The ensemble hails from the avant-garde Parisian haute-couture label’s new Spring/Summer 2023 Ready-To-Wear collection, which was inspired by Creative Director Daniel Roseberry’s trip to Il Pellicano, the beloved Italian resort in Porto Ercole. "There I watched as women from around the world got dressed—for a day at the beach and later, for drinks and dinner," explains Daniel, "I realized I was creating a uniform for them in my head: stark strokes of colour in sharp but roomy silhouettes, embellished with unapologetically glamorous bijoux."

Nicola Peltz is the latest fan of the cutting edge couture brand

Back in the early 2010's no outfit was complete without an over-skirt or ruffle attached to the waistline of a skirt, top, or dress. Peplum was everywhere, in fact the peplum dress was easily 2012's most wanted fashion item. Search statistics at the time revealed that the term 'peplum dress' was 2012’s most popular fashion search tem, closely followed by onesies and leather shorts. It was spotted on Tory Burch, Peter Som, Marc Jacobs and Zac Posen runways back in fall 2012. Glamour magazine called it "The silhouette of Spring 2012!"

If this isn't confirmation its back, it’s at least proof that our love affair with Schiaparelli is going nowhere.
