Fashion has seen various remarkable evolutions throughout the years but none more powerful than its current phase of ‘more is more’. From exaggerated shoulders, to ruffled collars decked in pearls and golden medallions that twinkle across the tanned collar bones of societies finest. From accessories to dresses and everything in between, here are our picks of weekend favourites that rock the proverbial style boat without tipping you over.
Big sleeves and bright colours
Lovers of kitsch fashion can bask in this season’s adoration for bold colours and unconventional silhouettes. Try on a shirt-dress complete with Victorian inspired sleeves for breakfast with friends and mid-day coffee sessions. A pop of colour combined with the right volume makes an unforgettable statement.
Intriguing details and boho-bags
Some choose to ignore the memo that bohemian bags weren’t ‘in’- and look, they’re back! Albeit with opulent metallic hardware and regal fabrics such as velvet. Head for early dinner or visit old friends in tops that focus on supreme details. Expect rivets of ruffles compressed into a shoulder seam or a frothy layer of feathered applique. It’s time to break through your comfort zone, ladies.
Baroque business
Nothing will give you more confidence than a bit of shine. Opt for hand-worked baroque textiles across statement pieces such as daywear shirts and pencil skirts. These can be paired with simpler pieces like suede trousers or cotton shirts for both work and late evening plans. Pair your baroque piece with simpler tones that have minimal shine, for effortless cool.
