With 80’s trends making comebacks this year, it is no surprise that we see some of the below fads coming back to fashion.
Sequin and a whole lot of it!
Sequins and sparkles have been making the rounds and it looks like they are here to stay. With brands like Marc Jacobs, Dior, Chanel and Tom Ford having already integrated sequins into their Spring/Summer 18 collections, it looks like sparkles are the next big thing to keep a look out for this year.
Pastels
We saw Ultra Violet being named The Pantone colour of this year and a big colour trend. A wardrobe bursting with light tones from yellow to green, pink to purple tones will be worn all year round!
Gingham
Move over, stripes. Checks are here to stay – Be it in your standard monochrome or coloured tones; it’s slowly becoming a wardrobe staple. What’s more? Throwing this print over a casual look adds a little fun to your look. Afterall, it’s always been that keynote spring material.
Denim
Denims - wardrobe essentials for all ages that you can never really go wrong with. Straight, cropped, boyfriend, distressed, embroidered – you name it! It’s become that statement piece in our wardrobe that can be paired with a casual t-shirt or dressy top and you’re good to go.
