During the months following Christmas we find ourselves in limbo. The sales are over and in their place the coming season’s collections. The cross over from Autumn/Winter (AW) to Spring/Summer (SS) is always a tricky one. During this transition you can slowly begin to add pieces of next season’s trends into your current wardrobe.

The most prominent trend from the SS15 London Fashion Week is the 70s comeback. Designers were heavily influenced by the decade filled with psychedelic prints, flares and flowing silhouettes – think Mick Jagger and Keith Richards or leading lady Stevie Nicks for inspiration. Suede is also going to be very popular this season and the nostalgia will continue with 70s disco platforms, chunky rings and layers of vintage necklaces.

Jewellery is not just for women either, as we are set to see a revival of the flamboyant male. Saint Laurent SS15 illustrates this look perfectly.

For more inspiration, why not visit the Thea Porter exhibition at London’s Fashion and Textiles Museum, which is running till May. She was the ultimate 70s bohemian chick specialising in fashion and interior design.

Trainers have been around the fashion circuit for a while now, and last summer designers such as Dior and Chanel put their own flare into the sports footwear. Chanel stuck to the classic trainer look, but added tweed and holographic panels, whereas Dior made beautiful pumps, garnished in dainty sequin flowers, that sculpted to your foot like a glove.

This season we’re playing it cool and keeping it fresh with plain white trainers. Celebrities such as Kate Moss and Rihanna have been sporting this trend and – teamed with a tailored suit or simple dress – they are versatile, smart and amongst the rush of the 21st century practical. An exciting collaboration has formed between Rihanna and Puma, as she recently took the role of creative director.

We are currently in the midst of the AW15/16 Fashion week run in New York, London, Milan and Paris. Showcasing designers from around the world, these are prestigious platforms where the master puppeteers and trend setters of the fashion world delight us with what’s next.

The highly anticipated Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty exhibition launches this month. Hosted by the V&A (Victoria and Albert Museum) it will display an incredible archive of his innovative work – a rare opportunity to see the genius’s creations first hand.
