“Pants take centre stage this season, with wide-leg, high-waisted styles crafted from fluid fabrics dominating the runways.” MacKinnon says. “While leggings and joggers remain as staples, these trendsetting trousers offer a more upscale and elegant alternative without sacrificing comfort.” The fashion landscape this season embraces quiet luxury, characterized by clean lines reminiscent of the 90s era. Polo-style tops, collared t-shirts and sweaters make a stylish comeback, complemented by bold stripes and cashmere sweaters adorned with collars for a touch of refinement. “Dresses exude femininity with subtle nods to florals, organza, chiffon, ruffles, and lace in a palette of pastel hues, striking the perfect balance between elegance and modernity,” Matthews says. MacKinnon offers her advice for those seeking to update their existing wardrobe staples: pantsuits, pencil skirts, and crisp white shirts offer timeless sophistication. Denim pencil skirts and wider-leg jeans add a contemporary twist, while belts emerge as a key accessory to elevate any look. In footwear, casual sneakers and ballet flats reign supreme, effortlessly adapting to various styles. Statement earrings and scarves serve as essential
accessories to add a pop of colour and personality to any ensemble.
Among the notable brands to explore this season are Alison Sheri, Foil, Liv, and Zilch, with Foil standing out for its modern designs crafted from premium natural fabrics with meticulous attention to detail. “In terms of colour palettes, blue emerges as the dominant hue, ranging from icy tones to rich, darker shades, evoking a sense of calmness and tranquility,” Matthews says, “Vibrant pinks transition to softer pastel variations like peachy pinks and lavender, while layering neutrals such as caramel, beige, and ivory adds a touch of sophistication.” They both agree that investment pieces for the season include wider-leg pants, classic trench coats, and well-fitted blazers that elevate existing wardrobe essentials. Whether embracing new colours or opting for timeless neutrals, these additions promise to refresh and elevate any ensemble, ensuring effortless style and sophistication for the modern woman.
