1 Straw hats

Is there a better way to usher in the summer than with a straw hat? Armani and Gucci certainly didn’t think so this season.

Loud prints

The spring/summer catwalks served up an eye-popping bouquet of florals. From that scene-stealing summer party dress, to prints that will energise your new season office wear – 2017’s fashion optimism begins with bold blooms (and they are anything but prim)

5 Exaggerated sleeves

Statement sleeves are the biggest trend of the season and too-long sleeves are now de rigueur thanks to DKNY and Loewe. Basically, if the sleeve isn’t run-of-the-mill, it’s in this season.

6 Denim days

Without a doubt, jeans are the one pair of pants we rely on the most. That’s why every season, instead of tossing our denim aside, we continue to add to our collection with new washes and cuts – this summer it’s indigo

The wide-leg trouser is having a big moment – and there are lots of versions to choose from at every price. A few that feel particularly right now: extra-long or cropped lengths; trouser and paper bag waists; and striped patterns.

9 Word!

The return of the slogan tee is here, preferably of the feminist variety as seen at Christian Dior and Stella McCartney. Whether you want yours to be political or just super sassy, try tucking into a maxi skirt and wearing with plenty of eyeliner

10 Shocking pink

There was a day in Paris during the spring 2017 shows when three designers – Balenciaga, Celine and Valentino – each showed some pretty lust-worthy pink creations. And they weren’t your average rosy hues. We’re talking pink pink.

swi mwear guide

As thoughts turn to summer and the promise of travel, it’s time to reconsider your holiday swimwear. The glamour and thrill of a retro moment feels right again: get on board with nostalgic florals and high waists, flattering swimsuits and string bikinis. Retro styles leaving you cold not your thing? Nautical stripes and rope detailing never date.

And as for sporty, minimal two-pieces? They’re always guaranteed a spell in the sun

New collection

Basquiat Lipstick, €20

Applying make-up is an art-form that Urban Decay has put a new spin on with their latest release. The brand took to Instagram to announce the collection, which is inspired by the 1980s street artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. The collection, Urban Decay x Basquiat, includes enough products to fill a make-up shop. Basquiat’s prolific career began as a graffiti artist in New York, before he became famous in the 1980s for his vibrant combinations of scribbled text and symbols and commentary on race and society. According to Urban Decay, “Basquiat was an outsider who challenged the status quo and used colour in non-traditional ways. From his informal graffiti work and the way he mixed media and colours to the way he spoke out against social Anatomy injustice, it’s hard to imagine a more perfect fit for our brand.” The collection features Eye Pencil, 12 Basquiat-inspired products, with colours and names drawn directly from his work. €22 There are two pigmented eye-shadow palettes, a blush/bronzer palette, three lipstick shades with names like Abstract and Exhibition, and classic Urban Decay eye pencils in red, yellow and blue that are designed to look like art pencils.

Gold Griot Eye-shadow Palette, €42
