TREND REPORT: Key looks for this Spring Summer 2014

There are so many great looks coming out this summer season, and really, there’s no one prescribed look – just pick n mix what takes your fancy and grab a couple of new pieces to update your wardrobe either online  or instores. I really like a classic white shirt with blue jeans for cool summer nights, and am super keen on the clashing-patterns look that’s been strong on the international catwalks. Key trends for this Spring Summer 2014 include jeans with a white shirt, patterns on patterns, textures, tapered leg denim, and double denim. We asked James Harrison, National Sales Manager for Brave, about the key new looks for the season.

Delicate summer fabrics

Delicate fabrics like crochet patchwork knits, printed mesh and stunning laser-cut embroideries make an appearance.

Colour and Pattern

Nostalgic colours of buttercup, retro rust and vintage pink are mixed with strong blacks and fresh whites as well as postcard, floral cocktail and palm tree prints.

Tropics and Nautical

Take inspiration from tropical holidays on old sailing boats and warm easy summer nights. This range is all about versatility. Sun-kissed pieces with feminine silhouettes that can be layered together in unexpected combinations.

Here are some inspirations for a few key trends:
