Piped edges outlined outerwear pieces, dresses and separates in contrasting colours throughout Resort 2017 collections. The subtle detail struck a chord with brands like Dior who used it on brightly coloured coats, Thom Browne, who elevated his pastel colour blocked skirt suits with black piping and Versace, who used orange piping on short brown coats.

Delpozo made use of bright yellow piping on long printed dresses and Tory Burch kept it all-American with red piping over blue resort dresses.
