Blooms back on runway

- SONYA DE WIT NB Style

FROM the depths of winter night to the first hint of spring, we welcome the return of nature’s brighter tones.

Blooms and botanicals are having their moment once again, but they’ve returned with a more sharp, bespoke look.

We love the way Gucci’s latest antique rose blazers showcase a unique marriage of smart, tailored suits with nature’s grand floral creations.

Fashion conscience is being ruled by the baroque fantasy of colour this season.

Trending ruffles and voluminous sleeves bring to mind the romantic Victorian era.

This spring, it’s all about having the style dexterity to bring colours like scarlet and fuchsia to your wardrobe.

Lately we’re seeing a lot of delightful pinks paired with leather accessorie­s for edge.

Wide belts are a faultless match for your spring look.

Timeless in its sophistica­tion and charm, the beret is hitting the streets once again.

We predict we’ll be seeing a lot more of this timeless hat after a Dior exhibit features in the upcoming Melbourne Fashion Week in September.

We love Dior’s matching of smoky grey tones with denim.
