The trend is a versatile one that can be sported with crop tops that have tie details, skirts with intricate crisscross wraps, cut-out dresses or maxis, high-waisted trousers or shorts with long overlapping belts and bikinis with lace-tie details, she adds. The detailing can be incorporated in lounge wear, party and beach wear, street-style fashion, vacation outfits and casual clothing.

“A good way to try it to choose a wardrobe piece of clothing and add the flossing detail. You can pair a denim skirt with a crop top that has flossing trims, for instance. Another great way to wear this is to stick to monochrome outfits — a black bikini top paired with black high-waisted flare pants with tie details along the waist will make heads turn,” Ambekar says. The trend is also incredibly versatile. If you’re a more modest dresser, choose a wrap top with tie details and pair this with a high-waisted skirt. By doing so, you can still flaunt the tie details without over-emphasising your midriff. Influencers such as Komal Pandey often layer floss-embellished tops over fitted tanks, for more coverage.

If you’re trying to be more mindful about your shopping, midriff flossing makes for fun DIY projects. You can make your existing outfits a tad quirky by sewing on tie detailing, she concludes.
