Believe it or not, summer is just around the corner. While it might not yet be something that would be defined as a “normal summer”, from a fashion point of view, it is.
The catwalks have already been and gone, and we’ll leave you to mull over the results that some of these have delivered.
From a more general point of view, some summer fashion tips are never going to venture off-trend. As such, whatever year you head off to Covent Garden or your shopping district of choice, the following rules are always going to be applicable.
NATURAL FIBERS ARE ALWAYS GOING TO BE A WINNER
Sure, synthetics might have been the talking point of fast fashion for the past couple of decades, but in the interest of saying on top of summer, natural is key. Both linen and cotton are excellent choices, with both providing unparalleled breathability benefits.
Will they make you look better for summer? In all honesty, probably not. However, they will make the warmer months more tolerable, and indirectly this might allow you to carry a little more swagger.
It’s one of the most popular materials around, and regardless of where you are in the world, denim is always sure to make an appearance.
Unfortunately, while it always does seem to survive the test of time from a pure fashion perspective, let’s not forget that it’s also one of the heaviest fabrics around. It will quite often be too hot to handle (or wear, as is the case here).
What happens if you just can’t resist the denim urge? At least consider something which is wider. Wide-leg jeans might not be your thing, but they at least allow a little more air circulation to make things a little more tolerable.
