Bulky, bold headphones are having a fashion moment. Truly. Dolce & Gabbana included metallic and black ones on their women's autumn catwalk, while the high street is selling all manner of bright and perky styles. Think of them as either a) this year's fluffy ear muff; or b) a quick way to snazz up your minimal coat.
