Bring on the LWD (that's the little white dress)! Highlighter hues, disco purples and breezy whites ruled the spring/summer runways. It's sheer madness!
Minimalism
Céline-signature sparseness continues to wipe the slate clean with pared-down, less-is-more styling. Shots of shocking colour at Jil Sander and MaxMara make serious simplicity, dare we say, thrillingly maximal!
Yves Saint Laurent
The recent retrospective at the Petit Palais in Paris cast a chic spell on the spring catwalks. Designers channelled YSL’s ’70s glam with gypsy dressing, vibrant colour blocking, tuxedo jackets, jumpsuits and the red-lacquered lips of Guy Bourdin imagery.

Nomad
Luxe, boho hippies take a multi-culti trip embracing a feel-good ’70s vibe. Maxidresses, laced safari shirts, whipstitched skins, fringe and exotic prints all come together in the name of LOVE.

Punk
Anarchy rocked the couture houses! Twenty-first-century proto-punks invaded the runways to a London beat in zips, rips, studs, safety pins and perfecto jackets.
