Layering Up
Violeta by Mango is a special line from the Spanish brand created to dress women in sizes 40 to 52 (12 to 24 UK). Fashionable items such as this ethnic jacket are a great addition when looking for an eye-catching element to centre your look. Pair it with neutral shades like white or grey and add extra sparkle with chunky accessories to add a smart twist.
Essential Extras
Accessories are a great way to adopt this eye-catching trend without overdoing it. This Parfois necklace is a stylish option to add some pizzaz to a plain white shirt. The colourful beads and threads paired with silver create a dazzling item that can easily enhance a casual look.
The Short Cut
Pull & Bear creates fashionable clothes and accessories to please its young fans, which means the latest trends always feature in its collections. This mini-skirt is a cool item for summer parties or when you’re out and about in any hot destination. Great if you’re planning to travel during the holidays. Pair with flats or ankle boots and a casual top.
Beaded Beauty
Tribal prints are widely known and used. However, there is another, often missed, element that suggests this trend, beads. Applied to clothes and bags they give an ethnic flair. This cuff from Accessorize highlights this concept, recreating a traditional pattern using colourful beads. Wear it with plain clothes to maximise the effect.
Fluid Folklore
Etro is a brand known for its colourful prints. For the summer season this year, the whole collection embraces tribal trends. Flowing silhouettes, maxi dresses and jackets are the designs to look for. Fringes and feathered accessories show-off Native American inspiration. To add extra oomph, the brand has also incorporated some seventies moods and contemporary romanticism.
Print Fever
The sixties and seventies were a period known for psychedelic patterns. Zig-zagged in bright colours, they are a trademark of one of the most popular brands of the time, the Italian fashion house, Missoni. Its second line, M Missoni, has also embraced this famous print to stamp its lower-cost collection. Enjoy the brand’s summer handbags!
