Seems like ages away since AW10 looks graced the catwalks, but now we are actually in AW10, I thought I would recap some of the catwalk trends taking the British high street by storm!
Many of us know the most common trends this autumn winter, but the majority take little notice of what’s down below...the hiking boot of course. From the the laced, over the ankle version that can climb any escalator to the second floor in Selfridges to the Erdem style, elegant boots that could be worn with a silk evening dress. I guess Beyonce wanted to get a head start on this trend from Alexander McQueen S/S10.
By now, you know all about the season’s favourite colour- camel and winter’s most important garment-the coat, (if not errr what duffle coat have you been hiding under?). A/W10 has seen CHLOE at its best with this colour trend; which has been a ‘hit and buy’ success across the high street. Take note of the layering seen on models Iselin Steiro and all things camel on IMG model Ajak Deng.
The Aviator Jacket as seen on BURBERRY PORSUM and PHILLIP LIM's AW runways, sold out in thousands of shops as soon as it became public. Some girls didn’t know it was a big trend; they saw others with it on and decided to follow suit ( a nation of walking mannequins). Just to let you know the jacket also comes in brown shades and if the Aviator is not for you, you can try this seasons hot cape trend, I assure you, you can’t go wrong with the cape!
PRADA also showed us all how to look lady-like in knitwear and mid length skirts modelled by a plus size model Doutzen Kroes and ‘industry’ curvy model Lara Stone. I also loved the warm cable knits at CHLOE and fitted and printed jumpers-GIVENCHY by RICCARDO TISCI.
