1. Colour explosion

Strong, striking colours were all across the F/W ’19 runways, ensuring that this fashion season would be anything but drab. From Kenzo and Issey Miyake to Saint Laurent and Balenciaga, every colour in the rainbow was accounted for.

2. Cinch it up

The female form of the season is one that’s snatched around the waist with a belt. From chunky, statement belts in Sacai, dainty, understated iterations used in Hermes to unique, contemporary shapes created by Virgil Abloh’s Off-White, take your pick and choose your poison.

Gucci leather belt with G buckle, price available in store

For days when you’re going for a sleek look, a thinner belt should be your accessory of choice. We love this Gucci design for its cool, boxy G buckle that differs from the usual rounded alphabet iteration. Play up the sharp lines with a tailored pantsuit.

In fashion, one of the worst sins you can commit is to be static and unchanging. So don’t be stuck in your ways and always depend on the usual leather belt. Opt instead for a metal alternative such as this chain number from Topshop.

3. Dark romanticism
image

Florals might be a staple for the brighter S/S months, but the runways have dictated that this F/W season feature its fair share of the blooming glories. Think floral prints made with deeper, darker colours. Alexander McQueen, Dries van Noten and Prada were some of the houses that had channeled the mystery of night blooming flowers.

4. Time for Tartan
image

Tartan prints of varying sizes and colours were another key feature of F/W ’19. Maria Grazia Chiuri of Dior went simply with the classic tartan colours of black and white, green and red. Rei Kawakuno’s Comme Des Garcons on the other hand, made a statement showing with yellow while Pringle of Scotland impressed with a playful mix of patterns.

Part jewellery and part handbag, chain straps are back. Carolina Herrera, Altuzarra and Chloe were some labels that put out bags embellished with metal chains. Go with thinner links for a more sophisticated finish or chunky chains for a grungy edge.
