Know Your AW16 Fashion Trends

It’s almost the end of the summer and autumn beckons. We’ve picked the best of the latest fashion trends for AW16 so you’ll know your wide-legged from your culottes and will be able to spot this season’s take on the modern ruffle from a mile away…

Dark Floral

Blooms on a black or dark background will carry you through many seasons. Wear with chunky boots for an edgier look.

The Wide-Leg Trouser

Ditch the skinnies in favour of the wide-leg trouser this autumn. Very chic…and oh so comfortable…

Tap into this season’s Victoriana trend with a delicate chiffon high collar top. Pair with denim or a pretty skirt.

Ruffles

Ruffles have continued into AW16 but are less romantic. Think structured wave. You’ll find ruffles everywhere on dresses and ponchos but we love this versatile tunic.

Animal print

Any wild cat print (or snake for that matter!) goes this season – from leopard to cheetah. Keep it simple with just one item – a jacket or a pair of boots but not both!

Velvet

Velvet, the richest of fabrics will be this season’s darling. Crushed or coloured. Take your pick.
