Business In the Front, Party In the Back: Mullet Dresses Are A Hit At Milan Fashion Week

Photo:   The mullet was the signature hairstyle of rockers like Billy Ray Cyrus and Joan Jett, and this Milan Fashion Week, it’s also creeping up on us as a trend to watch. In this case though, it’s all party! The style first appeared on the runway of Blumarine’s sister label, Blugirl, where Anna Molinari, Milan’s answer to Carolina Herrera (aka Italy’s national treasure) had girls with legs as long as Route 66 sashay down the runway in long ruffled skirts that were short in the front and long and flowing in the back. Then at Peter Dundas’s debut at Roberto Cavalli, model Maartje Verhoef came down in a T-shirt and a leather skirt and tied around her waist was a train of ruffled fabulousness that would make any of RuPaul’s girls green with envy! At today’s last show of the day, Dean and Dan of DSquared had the same idea with a pleated chiffon layer that was attached over sexy minidresses for maximum drama.
