So, I know there's a massive hype about the Temperley A/W collection following London Fashion Week, but I'd just like to take a moment to appreciate the S/S designs... After all, Spring is yet to begin. (Plus I've wanted to write about this for a long time before I started this blog). This collection has got to be one of my favourites by Alice Temperley. The sophisticated fit a flare dresses in innocent pastel hues give off a sense of lightness and femininity; and although it's true that the British designer has included bold prints in the collection, the wave of baby blue was the thing that caught my eye.
Temperley mixes blue with fine details of rich rusty shades to create subtle contrast and a unique floral design. Worn with yellow platforms for a 'hint of sunshine.' Ambers, golds and lemon yellows are the big thing for these coming months (yes, for every freakin' garment). A good way to incorporate the trend into your style whilst avoiding looking like a giant banana is to use accents of the colour. By this I mean, use yellow accessories to brighten up your look, in the way that Temperley does here.
Yet again, the white shirt boasts it versatile nature. Famous for pulling an outfit together, particularly when paired with patterned skirts like these.
Yaaaay! Lace is still well and truly in girls. A lot of us (myself included) have accumulated a fair amount of lace into our wardrobes over the past few seasons as it's been the go-to material. Simply combine that fancy frilled top with a floaty skater skirt and you've got a summers dream outfit.
This dress has 'summer garden party' written all over it.
If there's one designer that can be relied upon to bring wearable feminine elegance to the LFW catwalks, it's Alice Temperley. The Dior New Look-esque approach of full skirts and nipped in waists provide us with the most beautiful, perfect shapes for the season. The baby blue combined with hot orange tints offer both subtlety and contrast; try this with your own look this spring for a fresh and feminine feel.
