Almost a year later, the trend is still going strong—except we're having difficulty actually executing the oftentimes shapeless and sometimes sloppy silhouette in more elevated ways. Luckily, we can look to the stars for inspiration.
For a dinner date with the girls, create shape with a flattering pair of flared pants or jeans. Ponchos are top heavy, but wide-leg bottoms will create the illusion of a more slender stems. You don't need to be model height like Karlie Kloss either—just pair your pants with platform heels.
Sometimes the most basic poncho can make a statement—it's just how you accessorize it. Every detail, from Rihanna's leather hat and bobby pin accents to her statement chocker and work boots, come together to create a street-glam style. Alone, the poncho just wouldn't have the same effect.
WENN.com Ponchos have been worn for decades, but to modernize the look, pair your favorite printed pick with trendy pieces. Leona Lewis looks at both times comfortable and put-together with her edgy leather backpack, dainty necklace and booties. A peek of an oxford sheet polishes the entire ensemble just enough.
Don't doubt the powers of a poncho for night out. Just make sure you can garner attention with a bright pop of color. Do as Krysten Ritter and wear yours with a pair of boyfriend jeans to complement the slouch of the topper. Then add the perfect elements of contrast with chic heels and a structured bag.
