In 2018, we are going to see designers’ fascination with ’70s disco manifest into all-over sequins, power suits, and well embellished bustiers. Look to the runways of Marc Jacobs and Halpern for endless inspiration with this trend.
Primary Color-blocking
Brands like Calvin Klein, Marni, and Oscar de la Renta seem to be in agreement reading “If you are color-blocking in 2018, keep your palette restrained to three primary colors”. You -with this limited collection- can focus on the graphic combination of these colours.
Tinsel Fringe
This year, you can leave the suede fringe in Coachella’s past, the boho-chic trends are getting festive & futuristic, rendered in tinsel & other stringy metallic materials. Whether it is Paco Rabanne’s neck-to-ankle fringe or it is Erdem’s tiny accents on all-over silver sequins, this very trend is all about a ‘more is more’ mentality.
Measured Sheer
No more considerations that Sheer, mesh, and other translucent fabrics are for nighttime wear. Just take a glance of Molly Goddard’s fantastically voluminous dresses and Dior’s dreamy maxi skirts. These are the pieces that are elegant, playful, and, see-through. So, When they are worn over a slip dress, or accompanied by plain trousers, or worm with a leather bustier, the overall look does not necessarily say ‘risqué’ rather chic.
