With spring within touching distance now, many of us will be thankful to ditch the hats and scarves for thinner jackets and bright colours.

Spring is a season renowned for re-birth and growth, so this could be the perfect time of year to clear out your wardrobe and make way for some fresh new threads. Harpers Bazaar predicts that ‘summer sequins and pastels’ are just a few of the staple trends that you can expect to see on catwalks in Spring/Summer 2018, but what other clothing trends can you adopt as we finally make our way into the warmer weather?

Oversized Jeans

Oversized clothing has been a prominent trend on catwalks and high streets for some time now. The slouchy, relaxed or ‘boyfriend’ style jean, sweatshirt or tee can provide an effortlessly cool look that is as practical as it is stylish. Expect to see baggy denim jeans and jackets appearing in your local retailer, but don’t overdo the oversized look too much or you run the risk of looking shapeless.

Bold Prints

Bold prints are nothing new, but this spring you can expect to see them appearing on trousers and tights rather than tops and jackets. Match a pair of striking trousers with an otherwise neutral ensemble and you’ll get everyone admiring your pins!

Detailed Jackets

On the subject of extravagant prints, expect to see them appearing on outerwear too – namely jackets. Many ranges specialising in mens designer jackets, such as those from https://www.ejmenswear.com/, have already profited from detailed jackets – especially those with embroidery. But this trend is set to re-emerge again this season, mainly thanks to the unpredictable British weather. An embroidered jacket pairs style with functionality and is bang on trend.

Brown

Brown is a colour mostly associated with autumn, but it is also synonymous with earth and soil, so expect to see it becoming more prevalent this spring. In a bold move away from muted florals and pastel shades, brown could be a shade that makes you stand out this spring.

Anoraks

Once again, the British spring-time weather generally means rain, and so an anorak is a practical choice for April showers. No longer associated with campers, many high-end fashion brands are rolling out stylish, designer anoraks that will keep you dry as well as fashionable.
