English term or phrase: Statement
In a fashion-related text in British English I found two seemingly related terms: “statement black and white” and “statement shirt”. In both cases “statement” works as an adjetive. What does this “statement” means in the fashion world?
Pablo Zamudio
a la última / que marcan tendencia
Explanation:
Statement refers to products that makes a "style statement" (fashioforward) but obviously you can't translate that literally since in Spanish "hacer una declaración de estilo" is not an expression that we would usually use.

That's why I usually translate it as "a la última" or "que marcan tendencia".
