The fashion universe is always evolving, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed trying to keep track of the hottest new trends. With the buzz of the upcoming season, we wanted to give you an insider’s look at the must-have styles dominating the runways. Here’s what you need to know for this season’s fashion forecast.

Romantic Ruffles

This season, ruffles are back in a big way. From delicate detail on tops and dresses, to dramatic high-low hems – don’t be afraid to play with romantic shapes and movement. For a classic take, opt for a ruffle top paired with a tailored pant. Or for a daring evening look, rich textures and delicate details will give your outfit an air of romance that can’t be beaten.

Timeless Trench

The trench coat is a classic piece that never goes out of fashion. Perfect for the transitional months, a trench is a great way to stay warm and stylish at the same time. This season, look for high shine fabrics, intricate details and two-tone versions. Try layering it over a slip dress for a night out, or for a casual look, try pairing it with your favorite jeans and sneakers.

Statement Sneakers

It’s no secret that sneakers are a key part of this season’s wardrobe. We’re predicting that statement sneakers will be huge this season. Choose shoes with bold detailing, unexpected textures and attention-grabbing colours. For a look that will stand out, try pairing your statement sneaker with an unexpected piece like a pleated midi skirt for an edgy twist.

Augmented Accessories

Jewellery and bags are the perfect way to make your look stand out. This season, look for embellished accessories for an up-to-the-minute feel. Think statement earrings in bold shapes, and baguette clutches decorated with gems – or look out for modern takes on classic shapes, such as novelty bag charms and acrylic charms.

Brighten Up

Say goodbye to winter’s dark hues and say hello to saturated brights! This season, opt for electric colours and eye-catching hues – and look out for head-to-toe styling for maximum impact. For an evening look, block colours with accessories, or try tonal dressing for a modern take on the trend.

That’s all the fashion forecast has for you this season! With these five trends, you’ll be sure to turn heads in style wherever you go.
