The Row woven bag carried by Joan Smalls

Fringe continues to make waves this spring and we give you the long and short of this fringing fashion trend.

We all love the bohemian chic style projected by the  likes Kate Moss and Sienna Miller and for spring 2015, the boho look definitely takes a fresh prominence.

On the spring 2015 runway, fringes of every length were swishing in every direction and making astounding visual effects. So, if you are up for making a strong fashion statement with a touch of reckless abandon, fringe is the key look for your spring 2015 wardrobe.

But with countless fringe-flipping possibilities, should you be wearing the long, midi or short variation?

Short, funky and sturdy
For the spunky fashionistas, we recommend the "chopped" chic fringes for you to make your very own rockstar-worthy look. Alaïa suede sandals sport a fuzzy mane that says edgy Patti Smith, rather than boho-chic Kate Moss.

For bags, Proenza Schouler's black and white fringed clutch will do the trick. Add on the spirited must-have Chloé jacquard jacket to complete your modern take on Miss Patti.

Meet me halfway
If you are neither a spiky fringe fan nor a maxi length lover, then the midi fringe is just the thing for you. Midi fringe adds motion to your gait without being over the top and it comes with lots of spunk. Marni's yellow side-fringe bag is a good example of this moderate flair.

To look smashing while rocking the dance floor, the MSGM fringed white skirt works perfectly. For the country lovers, the smoking red Saint Laurent fringed suede jacket adds that Old Spice kick to those who wear it.

A wave of swishing spectacle
If you love a dramatic entrance like most of us do (especially for the red carpet), then go for the floor-sweeping renditions for maximum effect. First, grab hold of The Row's fringed woven wrap clutch and casually swing it in sweeping motions to enhance the drama as you strut your stuff.

If you prefer not to lug a bag around, then wear your maxi fringe with the assistance of Proenza Schouler maxi skirt or Balmain biker jacket. Their lengthy strands will definitely sway attention your way, baby!
