Fashionistas said they would never come back. In fact, they promised. But the unforgiving bubble skirts and dresses are everywhere–again. Designers have resurrected the ’80s bat mitzvah look as emblematic of the voluminous trend. But watch out. The key to looking great in Le Bubble is wearing a super-fitted, slimming top and sky-scraper heels to elongate the leg. Good luck.
