Much like the dramatic sleeves trend, the emphasis is on a bigger and bolder look for trousers. Wide leg trousers definitely get the nod this season – especially in heavier fabrics such as corduroy. The look not only keeps the cold out but balances your figure perfectly by making your waist look even smaller. For a more retro (and flattering) take on things, go for a high-waisted pair.
Leather, faux fur and chunky knits are all definitely on trend this season as textured elements are a must-have. Pair at least two textures in one outfit for an edgy look that’s sure to turn heads. Because texture is already a bold choice, opt for neutral hues to prevent a garish look.
Prints are one of the key ways to brighten up winter, with plaids, pinstripes and pretty florals leading the way. Colourful patterns on black backgrounds are an excellent way to pull off the trend. Go for one printed piece per outfit for a fashion-forward look or consider adding printed accessories for a vibrant pop.
Hats are going to be huge this winter! Channel your inner French girl by making a beret your signature winter accessory. You can keep it classic with a basic black choice or go for a colourful touch. In fact, you can even choose a textured beret for extra trend points.
Side slits and ripped jeans are in for winter 2018 – giving you the perfect opportunity to show off your legs. You can also opt for sheer, mesh and lace detailing on trousers and bottoms.
