White Shirt One of the must have for 2010

Forget the little black dress. This season, it’s the  Great White Shirt that women can’t live without. Reinterpreted and reinvented the GWS is a must_have for all seasons.

The great white shirt has become the new little black dress in terms of longevity and versatility. Always a wardrobe staple, this year a new trend in detailing and embellishments has made this basic of wardrobe favorite  more fashion forward than ever before.

White shirts used to suggest business wear but, they have recently  taken  on an identity of their own, not just for work wear but as a statement shirt of high fashion for evening and casual.

There are classic styles with traditional collars and cuffs, masculine looks with oversized mannish shirts, and statement shirts with ruffles, bows, ribbons, and lace, perfect for evenings. Just like the LBD, this shirt can take you from business to bar in one simple step.
