Underwear as outerwear is a big 2016 spring/summer trend, particularly the slip dress, seen all fashion week. Givenchy showcased this trend with this beautiful, feminine slip dress worn as a dress. The pretty lace and girly sequins gave an effortless sexy, but fun look. Other designers that embraced this seductive trend were Celine, Emilio Pucci and Burberry Prorsum.

The colour pink will be very popular over 2016 spring/summer. It is a very feminine girly colour, however it can also be incorporated into a more punk/grungy look, as show cased by Nicholas Ghesquiere. This colour was seen everywhere in fashion week with brands such as TopShop Unique, Dolce&Gabbana, Gucci, Emporio Armani and many more!

Checked Patterns
The checked pattern has been brought back and re-vamped for 2016 spring/summer with light and flowing designs looking very popular. Victoria Beckham showcased this new trend with these breezy garments that look very light, comfortable and easy to wear. I like that this strong pattern has been made to look softer and more feminine with the choice of loose fabric. Other designers that included checked patterns in their 2016 spring/summer collections were Celine and Stella McCartney.

Vivid colours all incorporated into one outfit is a bold 2016 spring/summer trend. Some designers chose to showcase this through strong block colouring, such as Gucci, whereas some chose to create exciting patterns, such as Christopher Kane, where the colours were mixed up in a graphic jigsaw pattern. Other designers that used bright, clashing colours in their 2016 spring/summer collections were Balmain and Kit Neale.

Ruffles were seen all over the catwalk at fashion week, all in different shapes, quantities and sizes. Michael Kors (middle) was one of my personal favourites as there is still a feminine and flattering structure to the garment, with a sinched in waist, but then you also get the larger, floaty ruffles down the skirt. Marques Almeida's model (right) looks swamped in the over sized ruffles, create a completely different, more grunge look. I like how ruffles can be so diversely incorporated into different looks.

Graphic Stripes
Almost every designer incorporated stripes into their 2016 spring/summer collection at fashion week, with all different shapes and colours. Prada (far left) show cased this trend in a statement skirt suit, with bold yellow and black stripes of different widths, giving a sophisticated bumble bee-like look. Roksanda (middle right) gave their stripes some wave through the lengths of the skirt to create a more feminine pattern and the graphic line were less vivid as others, with dark grey and pastel blues used. Other designers that included this stripy trend were Missoni, Dolce&Gabbana (middle left) and Jonathan Saunders (far right).

Mirrors were cut up and incorporated into many designs in fashion week, including the mosaic effect created on Loewe's black jumper (left). Louis Vuitton (right) created a futuristic look with this shiny ruched dress to almost give a robot/metal look. Isabel Marant (middle) gave their model a high shine, gold bomber jacket for a glistening, cool look. This high shine trend was also seen in the makeup looks with metallic colours being very popular.

The 90s
The fashion from the 1990s was seen all over fashion week this season, with different staple pieces making a come back. Alexander Wang teamed a feminine silk-like dress with an oversized bomber jacket and cap (left), whilst Saint Laurent styled a shiny slip dress with black wellies and a statement, frilled coat (middle). The designer Chloe definitely took inspiration from the 1990s with model Edie Campbell sporting this velour matching tracksuit which were very popular amongst teens in the nineties.

Shoulder length earrings made a big statement on the runway at fashion week, particularly clashing pairs. Designers were very experimental with the materials used from glass, to metal, to feathers, to plastic etc. Examples of this would be Celine (left) with different shaped metal designs and Loewe (right) with one side a slab of reflective glass and the other foiled looking metal. Many other designers included this new trend such as Oscar De La Renta, Gucci and Alexander McQueen.
