DRAMATIC
DOUBLE-BREASTING
S
peaking of tailored suits, the style in trend for
the coming season is the double-breasted jacket.
Spotted across major runway presentations, what
sets this defining silhouette apart for S/S ’19 is the
fact that it is big, oversized and baggy. Probably
trickling via the streetwear segment, voluminous
silhouettes are making their way across product
categories. Wide shoulders and lengths that graze
the thighs, worn either unbuttoned or open, or
belted at the waist, super-fluid double-breasted
suits are trending for next summer.
PATTERN PLAY
T
here’s a new party down at Fashion Ave.,
and you’re invited – dress code: head-to-
toe prints.
Welcome to the day and age where wearing
clashing prints is in style. Designers and high
fashion brands alike, injected unapologetically
bold and unconventional print-pattern
mashups within their collections.
Contrasting prints such as florals alongside
abstract geometrics, Donatella’s newspaper
print pairing alongside her classic baroque
patterns, graffiti inspired patterns alongside
sixties mod art prints, and Valentino’s blaring
logos alongside neon camouflage, all state
one thing when it comes to the prints of the
season – go all out or go home.
