Spring 2015 Couture Round Up

Designers have showcased their Spring 2015 Couture Collections - they're all over Instagram and setting google alight so a trend report seemed fitting!

Colour palette 

Pastel colours were everything this season with designers such as Elie Saab and Zuhair Murad (two of my favourites!) Showcasing pastel hues of blues, purples and nudes. On the flip side Dolce & Gabbana and Chanel showed a bit of red, oranges as well as black. I can interpret this as anything goes this season in terms of colour palettes, but pastels are definitely a front-runner. Black has been seen on every runway show as well as the red carpet - black always oozes elegance and never goes out of fashion, so a few black looks are expected on every catwalk. Translating onto the red carpet, we saw loads of black dresses as well as red at the Golden Globes 2015 - watch the carpet for the outbreak of pastels which should arrive soon.




Sheer Genius 

As seen at the Golden Globes, sheer-bottom skirts and dresses are everywhere this season. From the runways of Valentino to Ralph & Russo as well as Elie Saab to Armani Privé, sheer dressed are rocking the runways and red carpets. I love the look, but it is very easy for this look to go from fabulous to frumpy - keep the outfit simple, and keep the sheer-ness to a minimum (enough to be noticable, but not too much to look trashy)


Feathers

Elie Saab amongst other designers has been flaunting feathers in the Haute Couture range and it seems as if they're here to stay! Feathers are not for everyone and too much could end up looking like a chicken gone wrong! However, the right amount with the right details could provide a wow factor. If it's good enough for Zuhair Murad, it's good enough for us!




Cape dress

The cape dress has been seen on most runways and seems as if its here to stay for a while.When worn correctly, this style oozes elegance.
