You may look at the boldly-dressed attendees of London, Paris and Milan fashion weeks, and scoff. It can border on the absurd at first scan. Look a little closer, however, and you’ll often find that the folk of the front row don’t dress a world away from the rest of us.
For every ridiculous look begging for blog inches, there are commendable moves to be mined – wearable, up-to-the-minute looks for the weekend, the workplace and beyond. Our photographers were at this season’s shows and captured the best street style trends – worn correctly, they’ll steer you stylishly away from amateur-photographer-cum-sneaker-blogger-cum-instafluencer.
Head-to-toe neutrals work when there are various tones at play. Wear camel, coffee and off-white in tandem as opposed to going one-note and looking like one of those blanket-covered sand raiders in Star Wars. The easiest way to pull off the trend is by picking two shades: use a lighter sweater or tee to break up a two-piece, or darker legwear to contrast with what’s up top.
Either way, you’ll build a tonal look using staples that should already be hanging in your wardrobe: your camel coat, your coffee chinos and so on. The benefits are twofold; firstly, neutrals have long been safe territory, and their versatility makes them preferable to trend-led colours. Plus, there’s an increased chance to introduce some texture, of which more later on.
