Aztec and African theme prints, chunky plated jewellery and rich colour pallets form this fierce front and meet with military for a bold new look. Marc Jacobs grabbed the first row with slouch pants and Gucci’s beautiful print dress shows us how to wear bold colours and designs with a nod to the exotic. Team your look with chunky wedges or boho sandals on the shelves now at Next and check out their jewellery section for loads of big bangles and detailed day bags. Or for an understated look, add a splash of catwalk to a little black dress with a pair of stylish tribal heels.

renaissance chic

Pretty sugary treats graced the catwalks and lit up the gloomy weather. Think peaches’n’cream and romantic pastels adorning heavy layers and frills for a feminine chic look as shown by Chloe, Jean Paul Gaultier and Michael Kors. Try French Connection for lace jackets, frilled blouses, feathered skirts, tiered or fringed dresses and silk playsuits for a deliciously demure look. Go for elegant separates and maxi dresses from Next and rose petal make up from Effective Cosmetics but don’t be afraid to sneak in the siren with splits, sheer fabrics and beautiful underwear.

This season has seen military get some serious style mastery with Chloe, Balmain, Burberry Prorsum and Celine leading the assault on the runway. This look is a shoe lover’s dream with cut-away shoe boots, sandals, canvas and slouch boots worn with bare legs, hot foot it down to DanielFootwear who have a fabulously funky collection this season.

Love it or hate it, double denim is here and is causing a scene. It paved the way for a generation of 80’s pop divas and now it’s back with vengeance. Reiss, William Rast and Dolce & Gabbana all showcased combining denim with distressed tees and lashings of leather for a 21st century spin. Jackets and waistcoats thrown into the denim mix make way for a trip on to the wild-west, head to Gap and Levi’s; they have denim to suit all shapes.



Ship Shape - Whether its sailor inspired shirts, tops, striped trousers or a blue and white marine jacket - nautical is back. Look for items with neck ties, big buttons and rope details that can be paired back with wardrobe staples for a stylish Riviera look.
