New Season, New You: the Spring/Summer Fashion Trends to Know
A fresh sartorial season is upon us, so let Liberty guide you towards its biggest and best trends
By: George ElliotBy now your thermals are surely stowed at the back of the wardrobe as a new, long-awaited season is upon us, one that promises brighter skies, balmier temperatures and ever-so-slightly more predictable weather (touch wood). In place of the woollens? Look no further than this rundown of summer fashion trends. From dresses that burst with frills and dreamy florals to earthy tones and minimalism’s next act, here’s what to wear now.
Fantastical Florals
Hazy botanics, Surrealist jungle-scapes and hypnotic blooms: your next invitation (should you choose to accept) is to enter the floral dreamscape that designers have cultivated for the new season. Created to evoke a verdant utopia that grows wild with dense foliage and mesmerising colour, look to Stine Goya, Issey Miyake and Liberty (of course) for floral prints that seem to unfurl right before your eyes.

The Frill of It

All about channelling your inner high-society, period drama character, but with the added benefit of day-in, day-out comfort, look to Molly Goddard, Aje and Cecilie Bahnsen to master this whimsical style.

Down to Earth
It’s entirely natural for fashion to rewrite its own rules from time to time. Case in point: this season’s ‘back-to-nature’ fashion trend. Inviting you to cocoon yourself in the kind of deep and comforting colours we only really consider wearing when the nights draw in and temperatures dip, this spring/summer is set to see dark chocolate, spicy cinnamon and other earthy tones enrich our wardrobes.

See Red
Red is also set to dominate this season’s palette, but forget the colour’s muted shades. Instead, this trend demands a more-is-more mindset. From jewellery and cardigans ablaze in candy red to scarlet bags and scarves that’ll add a little pep to any and every outfit, whichever red pieces find their way into your rotation, do remember this: fortune favours the bold.

Monochrome Mania
Over recent years a less-is-more mindset has swept through fashion and it’s a wave that’s showing no signs of slowing, either. In fact, it’s actually taking a more dramatic turn this season as minimalism is returning to its purest form: all-white and all-black outfits. But don’t assume that this trend is about looking plain, or worse still, boring. What this trend lacks in pattern it makes up for with impactful silhouettes and intriguing textures.
