London Fashion Week: Adwoa Aboah Gives The Nearly-Naked Trend A Streetwear Edge On The Versus Runway

Believe it or not, the string vest is back.

Adwoa Aboah modelled a look that gives the nearly-naked trend a streetwaer update for spring/summer 2018 on the Versus catwalk.

Designer Donatella Versace gave the much-maligned string vest a dusting off and styled it as a dress for her diffusion line’s show at London Fashion Week, on Sunday 17 September.

The string dress is a unisex item, which Versace styled with a long sheer T-shirt on one of her male models.
