Summer Fashion Trends To Look Forward To

Hi babes, 

I hope everyone is well and staying safe. At the moment we don't know when the UK lockdown is going to last, but it looks like it is going to last for a while longer. Hopefully it won't be too long and life will start to go back to normal.

A lot of us are starting to think about things we can do when the lockdown is lifted. There are many things that we can all look forward to, such as seeing friends and family, nights out and parties.

At the moment I don't really encourage buying non essential items such as clothing (unless you really need it.) However it's not to early to start thinking about what we will wear after lockdown. 

I have identified the two main fashion trends of S/S 20- Eclectic brights and delicate feminine.

I decided to get creative and make some trend boards which is one of my favourite things to do. 

Seeing the trends and colours laid out is so pleasing to me. 

This trend is more flamboyant and quirky than ordinary neons. Sequins and art-inspired pieces dominated the catwalks at Ashish and Moschino. Lime green, yellow, coral, electric blue and bright pink are some of the key colours for the season.

This trend is all about being dainty and delicate but with an edge, as seen on the Gucci and Molly Goddard catwalks.

How To Style The Top Trends Of 2019

Colourful tailoring is going to be huge for Spring/Summer 2019, get on the trend early by getting a bright and bold blazer from Zara. The main colours of this trend are vibrant shades, of pink, red, orange and yellow along with light neutrals. Make your look more casual by pairing with a relaxed white t-shirt and converse and vans, or be more dressed a risque by wearing a lace bralet underneath. 

Why save pretty lace and satin for under your clothes? Underwear as outerwear will continue to be everywhere in 2019. In spring and summer, lace, intricate embroidery, silk and satin will be the key materials of the season. The colour palette is pretty, delicate and fresh; think light shades of pink, lilac, white, balanced out with black. To incorporate this trend go for lace bodysuits and bralets (there is a huge selection at Missguided and Pretty Little Thing at the moment) and pair with jeans or a skirt. For a more subtle feminine take, get a lace or satin dress with delicate embroidery or embellishments. It's all about the details with this trend.

So, it looks like tie dye prints will be back again in Spring/Summer 2019. Welcome to 2013! All jokes aside, the trend this time around will have more of a faded, ombre, grungey feel, with a lighter colour palette of blues, yellows and pinks. This trend will be especially prominent in swimwear, with iconic swimwear brand Triangl leading the way, plenty of high street brands are likely to follow suit. Asos have a big selection of the print already, go for t-shirts and denim for effortless cool.

Sequins, thankfully for all of us, never seem to go out of fashion, and are appearing on catwalks season upon season. Right now many retailers such as Motel Rocks, Missguided and Topshop have plenty of sequinned partywear to choose from. Around Spring/Summer rainbow sequins will be everywhere, inspired by Ashish at London fashion week.
