Current fashion trends from a professional stylist

 It's no secret the home of fashion and style are the forefront of most fashionistas minds when it comes to September. Not just known for being the home of the 3 P's (that is pizza, pasta and pane or bread), Italy is the birth place of high fashion. From the high end labels to small boutique shops, it is a quote-unquote rule that Italian's know how to dress.


But whether you are keeping up with the Kardashians or the Joneses, fashion especially on the high end scale moves rather quickly and you can become outdated in an instant. 

I sat down with a professional stylists to see their views on the current ins and outs of what is trending in the fashion world. And spoiler, being stylish has never been cheaper than what it is right now. 

From a professional stylist, the most current fashion trend is to accentuate your accessories. Yes! that is correct. You could be wearing a $10 plain top with jeans, but a paired with expensive high heels  or designer belt, and your whole outfit is suddenly elevated to a new status. Not to mention the idea behind accentuating is to showcase one expensive item. That means that you no longer need to be decked out head to toe in expensive clothing to 'look rich', no a few items spread here and there throughout your closet, dressed well, will automatically draw peoples attention and elevate your entire wardrobe. 

Just like here, the star of this outfit is clearly the Valentino belt, with this giant V logo it draws the eye of anyone.


For us savvy conscious spenders who cant afford to constantly be changing and updating our wardrobe this new trend is a much needed and welcomed reprieve. Not only for us being able to now show our individual pieces and letting them be the star of our show, but also because it means we now get more bang for our buck when buying designer. No more do you now need to bypass the smaller items for fear of no one noticing, now they become the centre piece of your show. 


So lets open up our vaults and dust off our belts, bags, heels and clutches, because trending fashion just became ... dare i say affordable?

Vivrelle - game changer in the luxury retail market

I like many of you love fashion, but staying relevant in fashion can be really hard. From Valentino to Chanel and Celine to Prada, the seasons are bustling with new statement pieces that i want in my closet.  But fashion, especially luxury fashion can be such an expensive endeavour to keep up with. And with most of my paycheck going towards one bag, it can be very difficult to be constantly updating and changing my wardrobe. While most of us look at posts from high fashion influencers like Chiara Ferragni and Jessica Stein, and their ever evolving wardrobe of luxury handbags and fantasise about what new bag to add to our collection. They change bags weekly and move onto a different brand, size and colour, making it difficult to emulate these fashion icons. I love buying a new bag, the smell of new leather and the feeling of peeling the little plastic away from the clasp (is probably my favourite part) no matter the brand, size or colour i find it just as exciting no matter whic...

pastels or mistel? Gucci pre fall 2020

Pre- fall 2020. Luxury designers scramble to release their latest fashion master pieces.  Gucci - pre-fall, the excitement was felt amongst the millenial generation as they cued in front of the marble doors awaiting to see the latest.  It's no secret in the last 10 years Gucci has lead the charge in the most sought after designer brand, especially among the millennial generation. if i'm not mistaken it was part of the reason the saying 'It's all Gucci' cottoned on and became the newest slang term to describe when things going well.  Let's not forget the Gucci slides, that have been on everyone's wish list, since the brand targeted the younger generation.  With the introduction of the new collection, Gucci diversified itself from the luxury market. With the introduction of pastel colours that add a light hearted feel to the newest collection, medling in with the tradition tan printed Gucci logo.   image reference:  https://www.gucci.com/au/en_au/pr/women/han...

COVID impact on luxury

 2020 has been one giant... i'm just going to say it Cluster duck of a year. But from trial comes triumph, with some companies absolutely flourishing and some gurgling down the toilet. The unfortunate need for companies to pivot, has left some with no choice but to close down. From fashion shows being streamed online, and shop closures. Luxury has relied heavily on their online presence to continue their revenue and trading through the pandemic. With many economist predicting an economic down turn, decrease in sales and all round shrinkage in the luxury niche.  I am of the opinion that the luxury category was only minimally affected by this crisis, and i think the recent black Friday sales have proved that the desire for luxury items is well and truly alive and well. With Valentino nearly selling out of their sale items within the first 48 hours.  I know crazy right?! and Valentino wasn't the only luxury brand that experienced literal sell out crowds, with Dior, Balenciag...
