Preppy 50s
PPQ
House of Holland
Ryan Lo - Fashion East
Fifties style was an inspiration seen across the catwalks with Varsity style bomber jackets seen at Richard Nicoll to prom cocktail dresses at PPQ, I especially think we will be seeing more off the shoulder dresses next Spring Summer. House of Holland showcased pretty floral open collared shirt dresses that have hints of fifties house wife style by accessorising with a large belt around the waist promoting an hour glass silhouette. Emerging designer Ryan Lo shown in collaboration with Fashion East created a retro kitsch fifties feel by combing cute dog print cardigan with demure matching skirt and vest, I think it's going to kick a trend for kitsch printed cardigans as we're already seeing slightly with slogan tees at the moment.
Co-ords

Holly Fulton
Richard Nicoll
Unique
Co-ords look here to stay apart from with an advancement from the current trend of matching crop tops and bandeau skirts to a more polished elegant take by shirt trouser combos, which vary from a relaxed loose fitting as seen at Emma Farow for Unique with a slouchy shirt and wide legged hipster linen trousers. To a more Eastern inspired bold print like Holly Fulton whose silk pyjama combination of shirt, overcoat and tapered trousers I think will ignite a trend for silk suits next Spring Summer. Richard Nicoll shows how it can be redefined for an evening with a white blazer and shorts combo taking a more glossier take on the trend.
Candy pastels colours
Burberry Prorsum
Christopher Kane
Jasper Conran
Peter Pilotto
The colour trend seen by various designers across London Fashion Week is an explosion of candy pastel colours such as bubble gum pink, mint green, lavender, lemon and a soft blue hue it will make for a fun, flirty Summer.
Peekaboo and Sheer

This trend has two distinctive looks either subtle and minimal or daring and fearless. Richard Nicoll chose the subtler option by having a sheer layer over a white skirt it creates extra movement in the skirt causing a ripple light effect that adds a lovely element to the skirt. Erdem used sheer layering over a crop collared top doubling up on the trend with a sheer floating train at the back of skirt. I think this subtler trait on the trend will transform your work wardrobe by adding a playful twist to a professional setting.
To the more daring twist on the trend look to Christopher Kane who used petal shaped peekaboo cut outs throughout a mint green dress I loved this dress. I think it will inspire a trend for random shaped cut outs becoming a feature as it is playful yet elegant by the clever positioning of the shapes. J W Anderson used sheer in a provocative yet alluring way by creating an asymmetrical sheer top matched with a high waisted mini skirt, overlaid with a sheer longer skirt, it is simple but charming. I think we will see sheer used in this way next Spring Summer especially mini skirts overlaid with a sheer slightly longer layer giving a structured yet defined shape to a skirt.
Sports Luxe/ Slogan Tees

Vivienne Westwood Red Label
The trend of the moment that we're seeing all over the high street seems set to stay with sports luxe and slogan tees being a feature for next Spring Summer. Tom Ford offers a luxurious take on the trend by using tan leather in a oversized baseball jacket, whereas PPQ offer a younger twist on the trend by oversized knitted jumpers and combining a demure skirt with a varsity style jacket, I think they're perfect for cool work wear. Slogan tees have been seen at Vivienne Westwood Red Label, PPQ and Christopher Kane I think the trend will move away from text such as 'Geek' that we have at the moment to a more grown up style of images like Christopher Kane flower motifs jumpers becoming a feature.
