became colourful and it was the beginning of a rebirth in fashion. To achieve this trend, add Paisley pattern, silk scarves and ties as key items to your wardrobe. These sixties accessories, are versatile and an easy way of incorporating the trend into your existing look. They can either inject some life or be a focal point into a monochromatic outfit, or just give you a subtle and refined nod to the trend, by layering a thin silk scarf underneath your jacket or knitwear.
UTILITY Launching into spring is the Utility trend; a modern twist on casual work wear re-invents classic shapes such as the mac, chinos and shirt. Authentic textures and fabrics take on rich tones of tobacco, burgundy and khaki to re-enforce the utilitarian look.

Americano
The Americano style is our inspiration this season. From Cowboy, Jock or Preppy, this trend is widely celebrated on the catwalks and in celebrity fashion. For Cowboys, we are talking double denim, brown leather shoes and big buckles. The Jocks are pairing sporty jersey jackets with baggy boot cut jeans or some slim jogging bottoms, for that casual look with a pair of chunky high top trainers. Or if the Preppy look is for you, think Red, White and Blue.
Nomad is a look grounded in the history of cross-continental adventure; think tweeds, quilting and Fair Isle prints. Playing with ethnic patterns and texture is vital. Town meets country, earth colours, hiking boots, outdoor accessories and plaid/checks are all fair game, and can be combined effortlessly in order to create multiple unique looks

HOMEGUARD The home guard trend is all about attention grabbing military looks, inspired by the authentic appearances of wartime Britain brought into the modern era with sharp but subtle styling touches.
