Hot or Not: Exposed Zippers
In my mind, one of the best trends of the past year has been the exposed zipper. On the runways and in retail stores, this trend has shown up at various price points. Ranging from chic mini dresses with an exposed backzipper to zippered gladiators to zipper inspired jewelry, here are someof my faves to get in on this zippered action...
Oscar de la Renta silk draped blouse, Net-a-Porter
(blog inspiration from Couture Carrie's post)
David Lerner zippered leggings, Shop Bop
Love these back "pockets".
Juicy Couture zipper bateau dress, Saks
Change the look by zipping or unzipping neckline.
Tracy Feith for Target, Target
Cheap and effortless summer chic.
LNA, Shop Bop
Comes in 6 other colors!
Marc by Marc Jacobs zipper pull earrings, Saks
Also comes in gold.
Zippered front tunic, Forever 21
More cheap chic.
MICHAEL Michael Kors 'Berkley' sandal, Nordstroms
Been lusting after this sandal for a while...now on sale.
What do you think about exposed zippers? Hot or not?

superhot
It looks alright.
Most are cute, just don't overdo it.
One of the few fashions from the 70s that I thought were eye-catching. I do like them. And retro is sorta always in, isn't it?
When is the peasant look and/or the gypsy look ever going to come back in style?? Some 60s and 70s fashions never made it to being back in style. Though I guess only hookers wear hot pants these days.
I don't really care and I think it depends on the outfit as well.
I love it :)
It depends
it's cute but it's only going to be a trend for a while and then it's gonna be out. i'm more of a classic trendy style.
hot
I love it
it depends on the clothing and who can and cannot pull it off
That yellow short looks awful. Looks like someone just stitched on a prefabricated zipper for the heck of it. I'd say the rest is ok at best.
i like it on certian things.. on others it just looks taky
I don't see what's wrong with it. It just depends on where it's placed.
The shoes are kind of cute.I've seen similar ones in my area. I don't care much for the clothing. Are they going to have pants with the fly exposed too?
lol i didn't know that this was a new fashion trend...
no on shoes, okay on jkts, not on pants, not on underwear, hahahaha what else.....
i love all of it!!
Yes for the shoes, no for the rest.
I guess that it just depends who is wearing it, some can pull it off and others can't.
Not so much.
love love love the zipper look!
I like exposed zippers on some items, like on the pair of pants, but not for coats that look a little more professional.
LOVE the shoes and the jeans
exposed zipper pockets and clothing desgin-type things are cute.
not that dress or the shirt. that's just tacky.
i only like the shoes.
