Tracking a trend: Those Topshop sequin waist coats look familiar

Of all of summer’s trends, sequins may be having the biggest moment. What girl doesn’t love a glittery top or pair of shoes? Sequin and beaded waistcoats (or vests, as they’re called in America) are especially popular on the high street right now. They’re all over stores like Topshop (a limited edition gunmetal Kate Moss for Topshop version sold out immediately after hitting stores) and Zara. When Romina, walked into the office today, wearing an especially cute number in black and gold, I could have sworn it came from Topshop. But, non. She bought it in her home country, Tunisia, where you can buy the traditional North African garment (and matching pants!!) in all colors from just about any souk for about 15 dinars (roughly £7 or $11.)
