The LWD (long white dress)
One of the strongest fashion statements this spring is the simplest. White maxi and midi dresses are the style of the season, exuding a casual, quiet luxury that will also keep you cool. Accessorise with timeless pieces like a denim jacket, or add a pop of colour through a bright scarf, handbag or shoes.

A preppy sight
With Miu Miu being one of the most influential designers this season, prepare to see more collared polos, classic cardigans, mini skirts and headbands. You can get the Ivy League look with timeless styles in classic tones, like white, black, beige and navy.

Sheer delight
Expect to see neutral and pastel designs in sheer fabrics like tulle, mesh, chiffon, organza and lace this spring. The latest sheer cutouts and highlights are tasteful, incorporating an unexpected show of skin into the look. A sheer top can be worn over a fitted camisole for a more modest effect, while a sheer dress can have showstopping details.

Pedal to the metal
Sequins, lamé and metallic treatments never go out of style, but they’ve gained momentum this season. Whether it’s gold, silver or bronze, metallics are making a bold statement. Wear it in your wardrobe by opting for metallic pieces that can be mixed and matched with existing staples to take a look from day to night.

Care to dance
The ballet flat is a fashion classic that every woman should have in her closet. They’re a great investment because timeless style never dates, so even if you wear them one year and not the next, you almost certainly go back to them. This enduring, timeless shape is practical yet chic and perfect for any time of day.
1) Elisa Pointed Flat, Blue Illusion | 2) Bellee Black Cream Patent Leather Ballet Flats, Midas Shoes | 3) Hispanitas Shawn Ballets in Apricot, Leisures Shoe Boutique | 4) Women’s Sculpted LX 15 Ballerina Shoes in Black, ECCO Shoes
Mellow yellow
True to its appetising namesake, butter yellow is a fresh, wearable take on the primary colour. The muted tone is easier to pair with other colours than a bright sunshine yellow and is especially adaptable for those who are typically anti-colour. A soft, yellow shirt will go a long way as a basic staple, giving your style minimalist impact.
1) Gigi Lace Cami in Buttercup, DECJUBA | 2) Olivia Tape Yarn Cardigan in Yellow, Sportscraft | 3) Tailored Pant in Lemon, Witchery | 4) Silk Twill Concealed Placket Shirt in Yellow, Trenery
A stitch in time
Crochet has been featured on the runway for years, so it’s no surprise to see crochet back in the spotlight this spring. Patterns with a thicker, open-knit weave pay homage to the 70s while adding a modern element. Pair your loose knit crochet with something structured, like tailored pants and minimalist accessories, to keep your outfit elevated.
1) Organically Grown Cotton Crochet Knit Tank in Wheat, Country Road | 2) Riviera Knit Dress in Navy Stripe, Cable Melbourne | 3) Luisa Cerano Sweater in Ajour Look (only available in Gold), Red Pearl | 4) Cello Tie Top and Pants, Ghanda
