Today marks the final day of
New York Fashion Week, with the London edition beginning tomorrow, followed by Milan and then Paris. This is the time where we see how the future landscape of fashion will be shaped and the trends that will become the focus of design for the season ahead.
At one time a very exclusive event, fashion week is now accessible to everyone courtesy of social media, and all it takes is a smart phone to get a head start on applying the trends to come to your own wardrobe before they hit the high street. Of course a lot of modern design looks to the past for inspiration - we think doing this with vintage clothes will allow you to take a trend and make it truly unique. If you're searching for a something unique to adorn your wardrobe, then look no further than the wonderful vintage dealers
Alfies has to offer. Read on for some of the current trends with a vintage feel.
