Are you feeling the January blues? Are you sick of leaving the house after forgetting to bring gloves, a scarf or the dreaded umbrella? Well, Brown Thomas has reminded us that spring is just around the corner - which can only mean one thing!
It's time to spring clean your wardrobe and Brown Thomas aren't short of stunning and easy-to-wear looks to give you inspiration.
Take a look at our gallery of the Brown Thomas catwalk show showcasing the amazing spring/summer collections here.
This spring it's all about celebrating the confident, desirable and independent woman with a sense of 'new romanticism'.
Victorian inspired dressing remains in fashion’s spotlight for this season with a focus on layering and Victorian florals.
There was a slightly darker spin on the theme with key pieces this season including bustiers and corsets featuring beautiful lace in all its forms. Many designers showcased a new exuberance with unconventional maximalism appealing to the peacocks among us with its ‘more is more’ mantra.
With Eccentric Maximalism expect a mixture of styles and textures with sequins and sparkle never looking so good! ‘Remastered Stripes’ materialised on the catwalks in many forms from thick and thin, horizontal to vertical, monotone to multi-coloured.
A more practical bohemian emerges in Cultural Horizons with inspiration gleaned from across the globe from Japan to Africa and Spain to India.
Sportswear and the 1970s continue to influence and inspire with a younger, sportier interpretation in 70's Gym Class.
Speaking about the upcoming collection, Shelly Corkery, Fashion Director of Brown Thomas, said: “All in all, the season is one of profusion, contrasts and contradictions with references to the past and promises of the future.
"Night mingles with day along with maximalism and minimalism both dominating. Brown Thomas sees lots of newness with the introduction of exciting new labels - Balmain, Mugler, Marques’ Almeida, Nina Ricci and MO&Co. to name but a few. Spring Summer 2016 is full of interesting details and unexpected delights!”
