Today is the first chance we've had to scan the AW10 catwalks for the upcoming trends of next season... and what we found was a plethora of vintage inspired looks! Take a look for yourself...
1950's - A-line skirts, mid length vintage frocks and Mad Men curves were all over the catwalk!
Leather shorts, flares and sheepskin linings - rocking the 1970's!
"Granny" handbags - Look magazine say "short straps, envelope folds and ornate clasps" are the details to look out for - Louis Vuitton brought this to the runway. The 1940's and 50's did these best.1960's heeled loafers (Prada) and 1950's prim and proper heels (again, Prada) are the shoes of the season (as well as chunky heeled, sheepskin lined boots)
1980's lamé party frocks - Yup! The 80's are back yet again, this time in the form of sexy (?!) metallic liquid effect frocks... will we ever escape this decade! Doubtful...
Not to mention beehives and retro hair do's, the key colours of the season being navy blue and orange, and more fur (faux if you're shopping at LMD) and chunky knits than you can shake a stick at.
We're going to be stocking up on all these key pieces so you can once again stay bang on trend over the chilly months whilst being all brilliantly ethical and recycling! PLUS... when so many trends are vintage inspired, why buy imitations when you can have the real thing?!

Cannot WAIT for the "granny" handbags and Prada-esque heels to return, as if I needed another excuse to go vintage shopping ... I can feel my bank balance waning just thinking about it! (Also might try some 40s-esque make-up looks, women were so elegant back then!) This was a great blog post, can't wait for your next update. :)
