Talking Paris Fashion Week Trends with Farfetch

After a crazy few days in Paris for Fashion Week, I snapped some key trends for Farfetch and below is what I think is set to be big this Summer in Australia…

NEON

‘Thanks to Prada, Off-White and Maison Margiela, neon’s having a moment in the spotlight. Plenty of guests embraced neon via subtle accessories (see: Prada’s fiery heels and the famous Hortensia courtesy of Wandler). I expect to see Aussie girls adding neon accessories as a way to update a classic summer outfit.’

BIKE SHORTS

‘Already a favourite amongst local Australian influencers (thanks to Vogue Australia’s Christine Centenera), bike shorts were also a firm fixture during Paris Fashion Week. Ideal for summer and showing off toned, tanned legs, bike shorts will be everywhere this season; worn with heels and a blazer for those fashion fans; an oversized tee and slides for off-duty days.’

THE NEW TRENCH

‘From ‘J’adore Dior’ logos to Burberry’s cool sketch prints, the trench coat’s had quite the shake-up of late. These new, experimental iterations are perfect for spring/summer; they can be easily slung over the shoulders in the evening once the sun has gone down and will make a great additional layer for the Spring Races.’

TECH SNEAKERS

‘Balenciaga’s Triple S, Gucci flashtrek sneakers, new Nike Air Vapormax – tech sneakers are going nowhere this season. How the Aussie girls will be wearing theirs? With summer dresses courtesy of Ellery or high-waisted denim shorts.’

COLOURED LENSES

‘From subtle caramel to sheer pink, coloured frames - the clear winner this Paris Fashion Week - is sure to be a key trend for the upcoming season. Every Aussie girl loves to update her sunglasses during summer and a pair of coloured aviators are just the thing to switch up last season’s cat eye shape.’
