6 Street Style Trends at London Fashion Week
As we kickstart London Fashion Week, we anticipate six street style trends that are going to bring more excitement to the season.
The highly-awaited fashion month continues with London Fashion Week up and running in full force. While the state is still mourning Queen Elizabeth II's death, some designers have cancelled their shows to honour Her Majesty's legacy. However, you can still expect adventurous and experimental styles on the streets of London as we feature the best looks of the season.
As seasons are transitioning, many fashionistas have taken their summer-to-autumn transitional outfits to the streets to ease into their Fall wardrobes. Ditching summer staples like tank tops and mini skirts, we’ve seen rising trends of camel coats, knitwear, leather jackets, denim sets and more as the Londoners start bundling up for the changing temperatures.
Here are some of the best up-and-trending street style moments:
Y2K Core
The Y2K resurgence is definitely not slowing down for London Fashion Week. To perfect the look, furry collars, cuffs and trims are a must. This furry matching track set, along with hip-hugging bottoms is a great fit for transitional weather. They can help keep you cosy and stylish at the same time!
Oversized Tailoring
The all-time effortlessly chic and comfortably versatile look comes in the form of oversized tailoring pieces. Oversized tailored pieces continue to permeate the street, from baggy suit trousers to '80s shoulder pads, channel big suit energy for a relaxed and put-together look. Casual accessories like caps or small bags are also paired with the outfit to break up the formal look.
Back to school
Wearing plaid is a tradition for Fall. '90s school girl aesthetics with a laidback and sporty spin on the varsity look has been a big hit this season: Preppy knit sweaters with plaid skirts have been spotted all over. Not forgetting the emblematic footwear where white long socks and chunky-soled loafers are the epitomai of emanating the school girl look.
Colourful Leather
As the weather gets colder and the bundling begins, what better way to prepare for the season with edgy layering? Leather jackets have been a staple for several seasons to round up any outfit, and Fall is no exception. While black has been the common denominator for leather jackets, more experimental vibrant colours can be found in abundance this season.
Double Denim
It is no surprise that sartorial duets are having a moment, with tonal pairings being all the rage now. Complementary denim wash shades are perfect for making a statement, even when you’re in a rush to get dressed. A sleek denim jacket and a matching skirt are all you need to stand out from the crowd.
Experimental Layering
In tandem with the vigorous energy of London Fashion Week, it’s time to flash out the most experimental pieces in your wardrobe. Looking at different textures, colours, silhouettes and patterns, the outfit possibilities are endless! Assemble lightweight garments with playful layering techniques to flaunt your wardrobe.
