FASHION TRENDS

'70S-INSPIRED SUEDE
If you thought the fashion pack was done with its '70s-inspiration love affair, you'd
be wrong. Jonathan Saunders, Alberta Ferretti, Rebecca Minkoff, and Olivier
Rouesteing all sent pieces made of suede down the runway, one of the decade's
most-loved fabrics.
ALL VICTORIAN EVERYTHING
Ruffles, puffy sleeves, high-collar necklines, and loads of flowerswe spied these
Victorian-era influences and more at shows like Emilia Wickstead, J.W. Anderson,
and Erdem.
THE X-FACTOR
Consider it a new riff on the off-the-shoulder top we saw all last spring. Spotted at
Proenza Schouler, Givenchy, Jason Wu, ADEAM, and Derek Lam, this silhouette
was top among major designers.
WHITE SHIRT REDUX
A basic white button down for spring? Not if you're 3.1 Phillip Lim, Tome, Monse,
Delpozo, or Zac Posen. This season the classic oxford received a designer
makeover, taking it from simple to souped-up.
PLEATS, PLEASE
Well, it looks we're downsizing on those carwash pleats that are so big for fall 2015.
Instead designers such as Altuzarra, Tome, Boss, and Proenza Schouler have
turned their sights towards a tinier, tighter knife pleat.
PAPERBAG WAISTS
Though it's not exactly the easiest trend to wear in real life, that didn't stop 3.1 Phillip
Lim, Public School, Tome, or Tibi from sending skirts and pants with the roomy
silhouette down their runways. Our suggestion? Pair yours with a piece that's tighter
on top.
NOTHING BUT NET
Marchesa, Alexander Wang, Cushnie et Ochs, Tome, Proenza Schouler, Dion Lee,
Creatures of the Windeverywhere we turned a model was caught in a designer
net.
FRINGED BENEFITS
Fringe has been trending for a few seasons now, and after seeing it at Derek Lam,
Edun, Boss, Diane von Furstenberg, Anna Sui, and Prabal Gurung it's clear the
swingy trim is here to stay.
LINGERIE
The pieces that are normally relegated to the bedroom are getting their day in the
sun. Alexander Wang, Wes Gordon, Givenchy, Calvin Klein, and Yigal Azroul-
tested, editor approved.

The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is an annual fashion show sponsored by and
featuring Victoria's Secret, a brand of lingerie and sleepwear.
The highly anticipated Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, which is known to fly its
annual catwalk around in various cities around the globe.
This year the Victorias Secret Fashion Show is in Paris.
Victoria's Secret has revealed which music acts will be taking to the stage for the
2016 show in Paris! And we are super excited about the line-up.
Multi-Grammy Award winners Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars and The Weeknd will all

broadcast on TV Monday 5 December.
The all-star line-up of Victoria's Secret Angels will include returning favorites Adriana

The show is usually held in the brand's home of New York, though lucky cities around
the world are often picked to host. Back in 2014 they held it over here in London and
it was the best thing since the Olympics.
Walking in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is a major feat for models, but being
chosen to wear the Fantasy Bra? That's a whole new level of major. Today, the
lingerie brand announced Jasmine Tookes will wear the coveted Fantasy Bra at this
year's VS Fashion Show in Paris.
