Last weekend I popped down to London for the day with the lovely Rianna Phillips for Fashion Weekend, a 3 day event which gives a commercial overview of all the major trends seen at London Fashion Week. This year it was held at the Saatchi Gallery, such a perfect venue and a great place to get inspired for the upcoming season and do a little shopping, featuring plenty of pop up brands from ready-to-wear clothing, accessories and jewellery.
There are also 2 catwalks you can attend depending on your tickets...trend and designer. We went to the trend catwalk which revealed some of the latest collections/trends and styling tips, these are close to season trends showing SS16. Silver and gold ticket holders also get a limited edition tote bag inspired by the idea of 'Graphic Romance' filled with a selection of treats, this season designed by Preen's Juston Thornton and Thea Bregazzi.
There were 4 main trends shown for SS16;
//Americana: A bold bright and collegiate trend with a strong American vibe...stars, stripes and of course plenty of red, white and blue.
//Beautiful Botanicals: Florals of all kinds back again for SS16 from country garden to oversized prints, including mixing up floral for a head to toe playful feel.
//Pop Art Brights: A colour pop, colour block trend in primary brights with contrasting colours working alongside each other, a great day-to-night look.
//New Romance: Already hitting the high-street for SS16, such a cute ultra-feminine look filled with ruffles, lace and silk featuring a delicate pastel colour palette.
If this sounds like your cup of tea keep an eye out for next season tickets going on sale at the London Fashion Weekend website, they have a newsletter too so you can sign up to be the first to hear. I'll also be posting all the details from my London Fashion Weekend outfit right here very soon so stay tuned!!
