Spring/Summer 2013 Fashion Trends

With the new season almost here, it's time to prep the wardrobe! See the top fashion trends hot off this season's catwalk.

 Trend: Monochrome

Monochrome - it's this season's it word. Giving two fingers up to whoever said black and white was boring, this minimalist trend was all over the runways including Gucci, Marc Jacobs and Roland Mouret.





Trend: GM Flowers 
Take a walk down the trippy garden path! From plastic roses at Holly Fulton, pop art daisies at Prada and gemstone gerberas at Moschino, flowers have never been so chemically enhanced. 

Feeling blue? Well it is this season's most eye-catching trend. There's many shades but only one colour to sport this summer. From cobalt at Etro to cornflower at Chalayan and aquamarine at Zac Posen, take a deep breath and dive in. 

Trend: Clever Prints

S/S 2013 is all about letting your clothes do the talking - foreign postage stamps at Mary Katrantzou, Sicilian folklore at Dolce & Gabbana and colourful exaggerated leopard print at Kenzo. Go bold, go bright, go forth. 

Trend: Swinging Fringing

From glitzy metallic fringing at Versace to leather at Rodarte, silk at Nina Ricci and raffia at Donna Karan - it's evident for SS/13 it's all about the shimmy detailing. 

Trend: Gruffles Flamenco Forte

Get ready to be seduced by the gruffle. With hips all a wiggle it sauntered down the SS/13 runways. All sultry curves at Balenciaga, Gucci and Marni. Guaranteed to cause yells of Olé! 

Trend: Geometry class

Sit up and pay attention please. It's time to go back to geometry class. Thankfully fashion is much more exciting with jumbo checks at Marc Jacobs and super even stripes at Moschino. So grab your ruler and measure up this SS/13. 

Trend: Geisha Delisha

Prada, Hermes, Etro and Emporio Armani all looked Eastwards for inspiration this SS/13. To create your own origami shaped masterpiece take one quilted kimono jacket, fasten with an obi belt then shuffle onwards and upwards in your leather judo socks. 

Trend: Sixties Super Graphic

Take a trip back to the sixties with bold primary colours and pop-art prints spliced together. Art degree optional.
