Designers’ Latest Romance With Florals

The SS catwalks served up an eye-popping bouquet of florals. From that scene-stealing summer party dress, to the Formica prints that will energise your new season office wear – 2017’s fashion optimism begins with bold blooms (and they are anything but prim). In The Devils Wears Prada, fictional editor-in-chief Miranda Priestly drolly states, “Florals for spring? Groundbreaking.” And while there may be a lot of truth to her statement – designers ranging from Gucci to Givenchy and Erdem are making the print feel cool again for SS’17.

“It’s a sign of Spring. It’s fun, flirty, and helps you achieve a girlie look fit for a warm day”

There was a time when I used to hate the month of January… the grey and cold weather… witnessing all the gorgeous Christmas trees and lights being brutally ripped down all over town… Just all so incredibly depressing. Like a long, miserable Monday that never ended.

“Dressing up in greys can be fun, we just need to remind ourself that with the right accessories and boots, January can actually be quiet refreshing and glamorous. “

What a Difference a Sleeve Can Make

Let your sleeves do the talking this season with some of Springs’s most sought-after shirt silhouettes from bell sleeves to ruffles and off-the-shoulder numbers. From sleek dresses to cool tops and even quirky knits, bell sleeves add a unique dose of fashion to even the simplest of outfits.

“Fitted on the shoulder and flaring out wide toward the wrist, the bell sleeve is the same as it always was, yet totally different. Gone are any hippy and bohemian references, instead, the new bell sleeve is modern and utterly chic.”
