14 February 2014 www.womanthismonth.com Ready for Summer FASHION | fashion forward The calendar might say it's winter time, but the fashion industry has already tuned into summer. Here are our top six picks that are the wardrobe must-haves of the next season. Boyish Contour A new silhouette will be explored with the waist being dropped a little, reviving a vintage concept. Mini tight dresses and long flowing options take the waistline to the hips. This cut not only elongates your top half, but also hides any undesirable lumps in the area. This colour blocking piece from Tommy Hilfiger gives a sporty vibe. Easygoing Walker Pool slides are next season’s favourite footwear. Chloe introduced the style in its new collection; it seems the trend has spread to other brands. The slippers replace traditional flip-flops and add oomph to your laid-back style. The comfy shoes work equally well with a flowing dress and relaxed shorts. Ethnic Prints The tribal vibe, popular in spring and summer collections, is very specific in the next season. It is represented by Aztec patterns. The clutch by M&Co, a combination of beads and threads in the colourful style, can be the cheerful element in a monochrome look. Dungarees, please! House of Fraser and many others are adding this iconic workwear to its spring and summer collections. The overall represents a young crowd with a free spirit. Fashion lovers may take offense for the return of this style. However, now that the option is here, turn it into something glam is a risk that all stylish girls would love to take.
