We’re nearly half way through 2023 and it’s already been quite a year for fashion. Just when we’d gotten comfortable hunkering down in cosy knits, ankle boots and leggings, spring quickly came back around and brought milder temperatures and sunshine (for the most part), making assembling our new season wardrobes a priority. The difficult transitional period between last year’s heatwaves and thunderstorms called for well-planned, sensible dressing with practicality at it’s core, but there is something about the promise of summer that means throwing all care out of the window (and there’s no better feeling than the first dress and sandals outfit of summer). For those lucky enough to be travelling abroad, you’ll no doubt be mentally prepping your suitcase as your warm-weather wardrobe beckons, so there’s no better time to start looking to the spring/summer 2023 runways for some inspiration, and trust me, this year is a good one.
There’s an eclectic summer shopping line-up this year—from the continuation of 90s minimalism vs Noughties glamour (that means you, 16 Arlington), to the sculptural and experimental courtesy of Loewe, JW Anderson and Junya Watanabe. In the mix of colour, texture and prints there is something for everyone; from the beachy and free-spirited to the polished and sharply-tailored, so if this summer calls for a little more than a simple tank top, step right up. It’s time to reclaim the joy in getting dressed.
