Trend alert SS23: i crop top

There are those who do not give it up even in winter when temperatures are no longer polar but still "cool", and those who make it a cult item of warm-season clothing. The crop top, which has been popping up on and off since the 2000s, is once again becoming a cult garment this year, to be worn with thoughtful layering or to be unleashed in all its miniature fullness. How will it be worn? Bella Hadid chooses it white and minimalist and accompanies it with sunflower yellow trousers full of enthusiasm; Elsa Hosk completes it with a single-breasted blazer, a high belt and clogs; Emrata plays with a denim jacket and trousers, leather jacket and trainers; the Hadid sisters choose psychedelic effects for Bella and checked trousers, while Gigi rounds off the mini top with used denim and camel cardigan; skinny shoulder pads and cargo trousers for Hailey Bieber; cover-up skirt and denim for Iris Law; masculine shirt and trousers with pence for Kaia Gerber.

Shopping with purpose? Here is the right choice

Andrea Adamo opts for strategic leaves and openwork patterns for the nude crop top, disjointed stripes and white cotton for Barrow, lightweight jersey and double shoulder straps for Dion Lee, an austere play of black and green and crinkle effect for Ganni, strategic knots for Isabel Marant, structural but not colour overlap for Jacquemus, embroidered logo and contrasting piping for Marine Serre, shocking pink and long sleeves at MSGM, mini braids and ribbons for Patou, centre seam and monochrome black for Thom Krom.
