EMIRATESWOMAN.COMEMIRATESWOMAN.COM64 EMIRATES WOMAN JANUARY 2015

Earn your fashion stripes with

Valentino, Stella McCartney and Marni’s nouveau

take on the classic print.

Say ahoy there to sailor-inspired

accessories.

Check in with gingham and follow the yellow

brick road all they way through to summer.

Refuse to be a wallflower. Keep botanicals big, bold and brash à la It Brits Mary Katrantzou and

Christopher Kane.

Make it less about the artistic movements and more about arts

and crafts.

Get stitching, as embroidery decorates

some of the best pieces of the season.

Be first in line for your geometry lesson, with professor

Roksanda Ilincic

If in doubt, there’s always monochrome.

Lighten up. Fashion’s frivolous side ain’t going away – as

evidenced by Charlotte Olympia’s

genius Piñata handbag.

Chase your dreams – or at the very least

catch them.

Make love, not war. Unless, of course, we’re talking about your wardrobe, in which case cargo, khaki and army green should be

your new uniform of choice.

Celebrate our wonderful country through Karl Lagerfeld’s witty

perspective.

Practical purchases don’t have to be ugly – look after your spine with Gucci’s python backpack.

Straps on both shoulders, please.

Master the art of peacocking with animal

prints in eye-popping shades.

Fall back in love with fringe.

Keep last year’s culottes on high rotation, channeling 3.1 Phillip Lim and Rag & Bone by

teaming them with flats.

Embrace the athleisure trend, even if you have

no intention of ever going to the gym. Ever.

Run circles round the rest in

Balenciaga trainers. Hey, you can’t help

it, can you?

Dive right into the swim trend without ever getting wet. Blow dry? In tact,

thank you.

Pump up the peplum. You should be a

professional by now.

Don’t underestimate specs appeal; add some classic frames to your repertoire.

Pack up your pencil skirt. It’s all about the happy medium, with Fendi, Gucci and Dsquared! opting for calf-skimming,

A-line styles.

Change your perspective. Undesirable

weather? It’s a fashion opportunity,

darling.

Let it slide, with this year’s most laidback footwear.
