Tap into your romantic side with the icon of the season.
Lisa Haynes falls head over heels for statement heart prints
The big love affair began with Harry Styles on his 19th birthday back in February. Not the One
Direction heart-throb himself, but his printed shirt.
Fresh off the Burberry Prorsum autumn/winter 13 runway, Harry’s designer heart print has
since been worn by Victoria Beckham, Alexa Chung and even rock legend Rod Stewart. In
short, it’s become the ‘It print’ of the season.
And it’s not hard to fall in love with this micro trend. The uplifting power print is an on-trend
alternative to polka dots and can be worn in a subtle way, with miniature hearts, or by really
showing the love with statement oversized prints. But think glossy and grown-up, rather than
schoolgirl cute.
Don’t wait for Valentine’s Day - wear your heart on your sleeve (or trousers, dress, skirt...)
