As spring approaches, a Wonderworld of warm-weather fashion trends are in bloom. From the bright and bold to the elegant and understated, we’ve rounded up our top picks for dressing this season – and the pieces you need to achieve each look.
The modern minimalist
Cool and classic with an emphasis on investment pieces, the next generation of minimalism is anything but understated.
Camilla and Marc knows simple things can have a big impact. With a fresh take on their famed minimalist aesthetic, the Australian brand is serving up sharp tailoring and understated detail, with pieces that will outlast the season. Of a similar philosophy, Esse’s versatile silhouettes offer simple elegance.
Pair each artful classic with sleek, angular sunglasses and a structured top-handle bag for a capsule wardrobe that meets the mark this season and beyond.
Afterparty
Vivid colours are perfect for springtime. For a heavy dose of sunkissed delight, let this season’s bold colours be your best party trick.
Make the trend your own in Aje’s signature colourful occasion pieces, complete with puffed sleeves and gathered bodices. For a more minimalist take, Maticevski’s citrus gowns are perfectly balanced by structured, figure-hugging lines. Or, for a style you can dance the night away in, opt for raised hemlines and nature-inspired greens by Shona Joy.
Golden hour
Tapping into the golden haze of summer, modern florals and sun-soaked hues are the winning choice when the soiree calls for daytime elegance. Floral prints are enjoying a welcome resurgence and no one does them better than Alemais. Hand-drawn motifs in contrasting hues lend each piece a romantic, artistic feel.
Lightweight pleated fabrics bring an air of romance to the season. Acler nails this mood, offering a modern take on classic sundresses that will have you twirling through every celebration. Or slink into the sunset in signature silky styles from Bec + Bridge.
