The Ruffle Trend for Autumn/ Winter 2016

Trend 2016: Winter Ruffles

For this season and the coming season, we have seen many ruffles crop up in many collections. The trend looks like it will be around for some months longer, and is very easy to work into your current wardrobe. Ruffles have been added to almost everything, including shirt necklines, skirts, ever to hem denim and add details to sweatshirts. Therefore, the trend is very versatile and easy to do.

If you are looking for some inspiration, check out the designers that feature ruffles in their 2016 Autumn Winter collections. To buy into the trend, check out ASOS for some cool designer inspired pieces.

Gucci's Exclusive Collection at Net-a-Porter (Almost an instant sell out)

Gucci – Exclusive capsule collection for Net-a-Porter

Gucci’s creative director Alessandro Michele has designed an exclusive capsule collection of modern style icons for Net-a-Porter. As can be expected, with Michele’s signature style, the collection really has a boho, 70s retro vibe going on, which really mirrors other Gucci collections.

Michele said that “for this special collection, I took a playful approach with our flowers and old tapestries. I loved the idea of bringing what I like to the NET-A-PORTER woman, to magnify my aesthetic and point of view through a collection. This is a real union of Gucci and NET-A-PORTER.”

Watch the preview, directed by Tom Craig, below.

The collection, launched on May 12 2016 features lots of floral print, in co-ords and on the accessories.

We love the exclusive Dionysus bag with gold hardware and the collections key rose motif print (Mini version here). The motif is also featured printed on this silk shirt and matching skirt.
