Here, he offers his personal take – advice, tips, tricks and even overhauls – on the top 10 summer fashion trends.
TRANSPARENCY REIGNS
AS DESIGNERS FIND NEW WAYS TO BLUR THE LINES BETWEEN COVERED AND BARE. THIS DELICATE BALANCE IS ACHIEVED WITH TEXTILES LIKE GUIPURE AND EYELET WHICH FEEL LIGHT YET ENSURE YOU WON’T FEEL LIKE YOU’RE WEARING THE EMPEROR’S NEW CLOTHES.
KEEP IT SHORT
SHORT SKIRTS, SHORT DRESSES, SHORT SHORTS! SUMMER JUST SCREAMS SHORT. THESE CITY SHORTS WERE MEANT FOR WALKING (NOT HIKING), AND KEEP THE ATTITUDE FROM BEING TOO PRECIOUS. TIRED OF LADYLIKE? EMBRACE SHORT!
ROCK THE CROP
FEELING MISCHIEVOUS? ROCK THE CROP! MAKE THEM STARE BY SHOWING OFF YOUR YOGA-TONED ABS. IF THAT’S JUST TOO MUCH SKIN THEN LAYER A SKINNY TANK UNDERNEATH TO GIVE THE EFFECT, WITHOUT RISKING OVEREXPOSURE.
SAVE YOUR SKIN
TRIPPING THE LIGHT FANTASTIC ON THOSE LONG SUMMER NIGHTS? PARABEN FREE MIDNIGHT RECOVERY REPAIRS THE SKIN WITH BOTANICALS,WHILE YOU GET SOME ZZZ’S.
SATURATE YOUR COLOR
COLOR IS SUMMER’S HALLMARK AND SATURATED TONES RULED THIS SEASONS RUNWAY. NONE BETTER EPITOMIZE THE TREND THAN THIS COOL COLOR BLOCKED DRESS FROM HELMUT LANG
BREAK OUT YOUR FLORALS
WHY NOT TRADE IN YOUR FLORAL PRINTED SHEATH FOR A FLORAL SCENTED FRAGRANCE? FLORAL PRINTS ARE SYNONYMOUS WITH SUMMER, BUT A FRESH WAY TO EMPLOY THE IDEA IS WITH A SIGNATURE SCENT.
SCREAM ANYTHING BUT NURSE
SINOUS WHITE STILETTOS CAN PUT A MODERN SLANT ON ALMOST ANY OUTFIT. THIS VERSION FROM CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES, SURE TO ADD VIM AND VIGOR TO ALMOST ANY OUTFIT.
LIGHTEN UP!
THERE’S NOTHING QUITE LIKE WHITE TO FRESHEN UP YOUR SEA OF BLACK AND GREY. FOR MAXIMUM EFFECT, WEAR IT HEAD TO TOE OR MIX IT WITH BLACK FOR A MORE GRAPHIC STATEMENT.
LOOSEN UP!
THROW OUT THE CORSETS, GET RID OF THE BONING, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY LOOSEN UP! SUMMER IS ABOUT LETTING GO OF STRUCTURE, AND EMBRACING FLUIDITY, SOFTNESS AND MOVEMENT.
LIVE IT UP!
SUMMER SOLSTICE IS HERE AND IT’S TIME TO PULL AN ALL-NIGHTER IN A DAZZLING NUMBER LIKE THIS ONE FROM ROBERTO CAVALLI. PERFECT WHEN PAIRED WITH AN UBER STRAPPY SANDAL AND A LITTLE FEATHERED SOMETHING TO COVER YOUR SHOULDERS.
