Topshop Shows You the Looks You'll Crave in 2009
Topshop rocks my world, and the fashion world in general. Topshop has just released a trends preview for their 2009 collection and it looks nothing short of brilliant.
Memphis is rodeo styling a go-go with Mexican-inspired embroidery and geometric patterns. Oh, and of course, tassels galore.
Nouveau Sport's collection channels living in the 1980’s and feels very Agyness Deyn-esque with batwings, metallic trainers and strange-looking prints. I hate it at the moment but it is most certainly a grower.
Hope & Glory is my absolute favorite, looking at British post-war nostalgia and charging about as an English eccentric. I love the blazers and the cutesy rose pattern dresses worn with ankle socks and lots of lace. I predict the Union Jack blazer will be a total sell out.
