THE OUTNET.COM ROUNDS UP SPRING’S KEY TRENDS
Welcome to SS15! Be inspired by THE OUTNET’s pick of the season’s most talked-about trends, featuring designers ranging from Lanvin and Christopher Kane to Alexander Wang and THE OUTNET’s private label, Iris & Ink. Best of all, there’s something to suit every style, from bold monochrome looks to the bohemian seventies trend.
HYPER FLORALS
The collections were in full bloom this season, as beautiful botanicals embellished everything from ankle-grazing dresses to mix-and-match separates. Florals feel brand new thanks to oversized petals and pops of colour at Marni, Christopher Kane and Peter Pilotto.
SHIMMER & SHINE
The new season calls for a bit of razzle dazzle, but these are metallics like you’ve never seen before. In a season where grown-up glitter reigns supreme, Alexander Wang and Isabel Marant let the light in with blink-and-you’ll-miss-them sparkles, radiant pastels and glittering sequins. Work the trend into your daytime wardrobe to shake things up.
MAKE IT MONOCHROME
Nothing beats black and white! A colour combination that never fails to pack a punch, Alexander Wang and 3.1 Phillip Lim made a strong argument for monochrome, with graphic prints, oversized stripes and two-tone finishes taking over the runways. Top tip: go head to toe for maximum impact – accessories included!
THAT SEVENTIES SHOW
An abundance of suede, crochet and lace on the runways can only mean one thing – the seventies are back! SS15 sees flower child favourites reimagined with a newfound elegance. Look to Diane von Furstenberg’s neutral hues and Issa’s ever-so-delicate details for a subtle way to work the look.
