Another truly memorable London Fashion Week (LFW) has just come to an end. The best and most revered designers in the world all congregated in London to showcase their latest designs for 2012’s autumn/winter season.
As most high street fashion fans know, LFW essentially determines what’s going to be in style each season. Only a few short months ago, in September last year, those very same designers that arrived last week were showcasing their designs for the 2012 spring season. As such, many of the most popular trends from the catwalks then are now on the shelves in the high street and available online.
With that in mind, let’s take a look at a brand that had a particularly exciting week last September, coming out with some sensational looks that are sure to become must-haves in the upcoming months – Fred Perry.
The brand’s new footwear line generally sticks to the classic, low-ankle plimsoll with a thick rubber sole that Fred Perry is known for. However, many of its new shoes are available in suede, most notably the blue suede brogue. Heeled brogues were a popular choice in women’s fashion in an androgyny-filled 2011, but have now once again taken up their rightful place at the forefront of men’s footwear design.
Whilst plaid check features heavily in a lot of Fred Perry’s casual shirts, the brand has introduced a few gingham check pieces to its new line too, including a colourful selection of shorts. Gingham tends to grow in popularity in the warmer months and, thanks to the versatility of its style, it can be a great way to mix up your outfit. It isn’t as popular as its larger checked cousins, but that’s no reason not to invest in a few key pieces, particularly as last September’s LFW suggested it’s set to become a staple this season.
In terms of jackets, Fred Perry, like so many other high street designers, has picked up on the growing popularity of gilets. Elsewhere, you can find some fantastic Fred Perry bags and other accessories, so you’ll be able to kit yourself out from head to toe in fashionable items.
