As seen on Emily Ratajkowski, flared trousers are still in the spotlight, giving a retro twist that pairs effortlessly with everything from fitted shirts to oversized blazers.

All-white outfits are the new it-girl approved trend. One popular approach is pairing sleek white outfits with printed scarves or ties, adding a pop of colour and personality. For a modern, edgy twist, white jumpsuits and tailored separates are perfect for both casual and formal settings. The right accessories plays a big role in elevating these looks. Statement belts cinch at the waist, adding definition to loose-fitting pieces, while bold jewellery creates a striking contrast against the clean, monochrome backdrop.
