FAVOURITE COLLECTION
Marc Jacobs
“Florals played a starring role. Kaia Gerber was dreamy in a voluminous gown littered with giant blooms. We also loved a modernized ‘70s floral-print jumpsuit with that quintessential Marc Jacobs spirit.”

Updated Shirting
“Updated shirting was very big for Spring. Favourites were Zimmermann’s maximalist takes featuring exaggerated sleeve details and The Row’s crisp options for their smart, minimalist customer.”

Feminine Blouses
“It was all romance when it came to blouses. Ultra-feminine in silhouette, crafted in silk chiffon or cotton poplin, and finessed with ruffles, billowing sleeves, or sweeping neckties.”
—Joseph Tang
FAVOURITE COLLECTION
Burberry
“Riccardo Tisci continues to reinforce his design codes at Burberry and this collection offered exciting pieces for both old and new customers alike.”
—Mario Grauso
FAVOURITE COLLECTION
Gucci
“Gucci offered up less of a magpie aesthetic, with Alessandro Michele paring back his designs and adding an S&M edge instead. Standouts included a peach slip dress with lace insets and patent leather trims.”

Soft Tailoring
“We saw tailored separates in softer and more fluid silhouettes go down the runway—the accompanying palette of washed neutrals also spoke to that shift away from hardened lines.”

Bold Colours & Botanical Prints
“Punchy prints and colours were seen at almost every collection this season. Valentino sent out bright botanical prints dotted with palm fronds and monkeys, while Dries Van Noten’s triumphant collection in partnership with Christian Lacroix featured saturated pinks, yellows, and blues.”
—Joseph Tang
MUST-HAVE
Outerwear from Junya Watanabe & Noir Kei Ninomiya
“High-impact outerwear that blurs the line between art and clothing was big for Spring. Junya sliced and diced the trench coat into a patchworked vision, and Noir Kei Ninomiya transformed the moto jacket by adding an ethereal quality to the timeless silhouette.”
