The only thing more fun about a trend making a comeback is when it is reinvented in a way that's so fresh, anyone can pull it off. Take fringe, for instance. The tasseled trim usually reserved for Western flair, Gatsby-esque flappers, and free-spirited hippies is reemerging with a chicer -- and, dare we say, almost classic -- aesthetic. Labels like Valentino and Celine gave the look staying power with the launch of their spring/summer collections, which featured patent leather wallets and boho bags with ornate fringe detailing. As predicted, the trickle-down tassel effect is flooding the music festival scene this year. "It" girls like Poppy Delevigne and Fergie showed off their version of fringe at Coachella -- making it the coolest revival since the cat-eye.

Here are seven reasons to get with the fringe trend.

At the Valentino spring/summer runway event during Paris Fashion Week, models donned indigenous prints, gold jewelry and fringed bags and clutches to top off the tribal, ornate vibe.

Our guess as to what was said during the design phase of this ingenious laser-cut tasseled clutch from the Celine spring/summer accessory collection: "Make it fringed, and make it fierce."

Of course Poppy Delevingne, the British model and socialite, would rep an all-black/no-pants ensemble at Coachella. Add some fringe, and call it hippie haute couture.

Fergie took a well-deserved break from motherhood for some R&R at the ever-fashionable Coachella music festival. Her black fedora and Harley Davidson T-shirt give her white fringed vest a '90s grunge feel.
