The SS18 Trend Board
Introducing the most-wanted looks of the season, from gelato-hued pastels to florals and a new approach to sleeves.
PASTEL POWER
Contrasting with the season’s primary brights is a parade of delectably soft pastels, as seen on the catwalks at Celine, Preen and Victoria Beckham.
Whether you opt for head-to-toe in a statement suit, or introduce a highlight in the form of shoes or accessories, it’s the new way to wear colour.
Pastel Pick: Anything lilac
THE NEW DENIM
Forget pale washes and distressed details. Denim takes its cue from the 90s this summer; think dark, raw denim pieces with contrast topstitching. Draw inspiration from the looks at Tibi and Mugler, where the denim was tailored yet sexy.
Hero Piece: The denim dress
ALL OVER STRIPES
Stripes get a reboot this summer. The Riviera-ready print remains a summer staple, as iconic as it is versatile.
Look to Sonia Rykiel and Monse for your styling inspiration: Mix it up with athluxe sneakers, or go full-on French girl in espadrilles and a red lip.
Our pick: The shirt dress
FLORAL FANCY
Florals for Spring? Groundbreaking! Forget what you learnt from The Devil Wears Prada; florals are anything but predictable this season. Take it from Erdem and the Gucci gang, more is definitely more when it comes to this look.
Pick of the bunch: The kimono set
