24 October 2015 www.womanthismonth.com FASHION | trend The fashion world has been invaded by this style. The first element that shouts geek style is definitely a cool pair of glasses. Big, round and in black or colourful shades, they represent the nerd way of dressing. But this is not the only feature to look out for; geek girls like to dress in smart vintage pieces with a unique way of wearing them. Soft patterns or bold cartoon designs also figure in their wardrobes. Tops and dresses are buttoned up and finished off with sweet round collars. Vests and pleated skirts worn with high socks and boyish shoes remind us of school uniform, an impression that quickly fades when we spot a flash of jazzy coloured hair or a funky handbag. Unique items worn in a personalised way are the geek’s trademark Designers this season took inspiration from geek chic but added their own twist with a sophisticated approach to the looks. Feminine dresses and creative detailed pieces are their way of adopting this trend that just keeps growing among the cool set.
