Autumn/ Winter Trends Statement Headwear Puffy hairbands, furry bucket hats and lettered hairpins - statement headwear is having a major moment in autumn/ winter collections for 2019. Having been featured in a number of big-name designer shows including Tom Ford, Loewe and Gucci, the trend has now filtered onto the highstreet just in time for the colder weather. Found aplenty on major retailers such as ASOS, statement headwear is both easy to shop and won’t cost you a fortune, making it the perfect trend to quickly elevate an outfit.
Purple
Taking over from 2018’s Millennial Pink obsession, purple is paving the way as the new it-colour this season. Featured on the runway at Michael Kors, Dries Van Noten and Christian Siriano, this trend is often seen as a head-to-toe look, creating a bold option for the more daring of us, but can be worn in a more toned-down style. Purple has been cropping up on the highstreet in almost every form - with dresses, jumpers and suits galore, so there’s plenty of this trend to choose from to add a pop of colour to your wardrobe.
Asymmetrical Necklines
Asymmetrical necklines have exploded onto the highstreet in the past few weeks - spotted by perhaps nearly all of us by now in the opening scene of Molly Mae’s x Pretty Little Thing advertisement. An asymmetrical neckline goes hand-in-hand with a night-out dress or jumpsuit, but is also a great way to elevate everyday wear. Jumpers which embrace this trend make it an easy option to incorporate into your wardrobe and add an interesting dimension to a more casual look.
Sparkle
Another very easy-to-manage trend, cinched outerwear has appeared in shows by Prada, Tibi and Marni. A specially designed coat or blazer isn’t required - simply loop a belt to tie-in the waist of your winter layers and you’re good to go! The simplicity of this trend makes it one of the most affordable of the autumn/ winter season and it’s versatility means it can be added to a number of different looks. A suitable belt is likely already stashed away in the depths of your wardrobe so no extra spending necessary.
A winter trend that’s a fail-safe to return every year, sparkle is the fashion embodiment of party season. Manifesting as dresses, tops, jumpsuits, skirts and pants, this trend can be worn in a variety of different forms. The perfect option for a night-out, sparkle can be styled as bold or minimal as you like, adding some glitz and festiveness to help get us through the cold winter weather. 10
