Latest iteration of waist-up dressing is appearing on the catwalk as well as being worn by women in the public eye
For the millions now working from home, waist-up dressing has become the solution to meetings moving from face-to-face to video platforms like Zoom. Its latest iteration? A return of the power shoulder.
