You can be sure to avoid the
nightmare of turning up to a
wedding in the same outfit
as someone else because this
season has everything – and
we mean everything – from
future sport-tech and the
’90s acid rave scene, to tunic
suits and tie-dye. Materials have taken a new turn
showcasing latex, tonic and leather – even the colour
palette has a refreshing twist. Get stuck in!
THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT
Relive the ’90s rave era by donning your old neon
colours and tie-dye garments, because this summer is
reviving one of the most iconic party scenes in history –
and face it, what’s more appropriate for your wedding
celebrations?
CHRIS SHANNON
kick-started his club scene collection
with bright neon latex shorts in a huge array of in-your-
face colours. He covered his
models’ hair with glitter,
giving it that wet, ‘heavy
night of dancing’ look.
CRAIG GREEN
went
full-on tie-dye psychedelic
with his collection,
sending his models down
as 3D sculptures rather
than humans. It had a real
modern avant-garde feel
and we’re sure Lady GaGa
will be first in line for his
collection.
LOUIS VUITTON
gave a
nod with neon bright
garments, as did
RAF
SIMONS
collection, which
was inspired by the ’90s
Gabba scene.
BLOCK STRIPES
Stripes are a timeless classic and they never
get boring. However, stripes this season are
bigger and bolder than ever – literally!
Block stripes have been blended
seamlessly throughout the fashion
industry this summer.
Our favourite stripe comes from
the
WOOYOUNGMI SS14
collection, where you will see a
lush selection of blue tones and
shades placed lovingly together on
sharply tailored suits and shirts,
giving an almost modern nautical
feel – perfect for the summer
weather.
MOSCHINO
(as quirky as ever) took
advantage of the block stripe to display a
whole range of bold fabric prints from
floral to landscape imagery, while
VALENTINO
kept their block stripe much
more accessible by placing it on a sharp
suit and graduating from grey to black;
simplicity with maximum effect.
This season is packed full of
fresh and fun styles – we’re
up to our ears in outlandish,
artsy and innovative trends.
