Ports 1961 and Issey Miyake
went for an unkempt look with
hairy woollen pieces while
Balenciaga channelled in the
millennial vibe through a vibrant
fluorescent palette. Cushnie et
Ochs presented feathery versions
lining the hemlines of dresses
whilst Prada on the other hand,
took plastic (which was also a key
S/S ’18 trend) to another level by
incorporating it into dresses.
oomerang-worthy pieces are
a big hit this season with an
umpteen number of designers
going all out with fringe-y details
on the runways. Garments
featuring long, hair-like threads
crafted out of beads, high-shine
gossamers and hairy wool, made
a recurring appearance, over long
coats and jackets, dresses and
trousers.
FLORAL

This season, the shift is majorly
observed in terms of these
flowery motifs taking on a
moodier mood and merging
with other patterns. The pattern
appears in all shapes and sizes
and cultural contexts. A strong
presence of oriental floral motifs
was observed alongside micro
splatters of budding blooms.
lorals since forever have
proved to be a big sell-out
for the fashion and retail industry.
Florals are a key defining motif
and can never go completely
out of style, so in each season,
designers and brands try to shake
things up in order to breathe new
life into the classic print.
