With New York, London, and Milan fashion weeks in the rear view, and Paris fashion week just beginning, fashion will begin to change around the world. This change should be expected on-campus, but some trends can be tricky to make your own. Take inspiration from these selected ideas to find your own style.
Merch
Merch is going to be here for a while, so head to a concert or thrift store to pick up your favorite graphic tee. Dolce and Gabbana went all out for the finale of their SS17 show by adorning all of their models in printed tee shirts. If you weren’t lucky enough to get on of Kanye’s merch items and are tired of the Brandy Melville Led Zeppelin shirts that are everywhere, go for a vintage (or vintage-inspired) merch shirt and pair it with anything- from jeans to trousers.
Microfloral
Microflorals are the younger sister of in-your-face bold patterns. These prints can be worn like neutrals, and they are a welcome addition to virtually every outfit. Stella Jean’s show was filled with these quirky microfloral prints, but you can opt for a cheaper alternative, such as this skirt from Nasty Gal.
Sleepwear
The recent Ports 1961 show was packed with all kinds of magical silk stripes. If you want to try something other than the lingerie trend, go for this fun, workplace appropriate trend. This dress from Topshop is the perfect year round piece.
Hemlines
This season hemlines are all over the place, as seen in the Versace show. Ditch your a-line, button up skirt that you wore all summer and erase the high-low hemlines of 2012 from your memory. Go for a truly asymmetrical look that was seen all over the runways. If you want a wearable and versatile option, check out this skirt from Asos.
