Our Top 10 Women's SS17 Trends

Let the sunshine in! Fashion heats up for spring/summer with a whole host of new and exciting women's fashion trends.

#1 The Kitten Heel Heels get cute for spring/summer with the return of the kitten heel. Channel the nonchalant French streetwear look with these easy to wear, feminine shoes - pair them with socks and ankle grazing denim.

#2 The Bralette Returns Just when you thought the bralette was over, it's reprised and reinvented and oozing cool girl style. Embrace the layers and wear yours over flouncy blouses, masculine shirts or utilitarian dresses.

#3 Purist Pink You'd better be thinking pink this season, whether it's in elegant shades of nude or feisty hues of hot fuchsia. Mix your shades together for an all over flushed affair, or take a statement piece such as a magenta wool coat to give your women's fashion outfits some extra pop.

#4 Getting Political Clothes were doing all the talking on the women's fashion catwalks, with political slogan tees favoured amongst the designers. Join the cause and make a statement in your very own in a logo or slogan t-shirt, and make women's SS17 trends stand up for what you believe in.

#5 I See You Last season it was all about the underwear, and we're still flashing the flesh this season with sheer and sultry layers, from floaty maxi skirts to transparent trousers. Make a subtle nod to the trend and layer a gauzy top underneath a v neck jumper.

#6 Pretty Punks It's punk but not as you know it - tulle gets reinvented in kick-ass sumptuous shades and dark florals, which you can mix with sugar tones and frothy layers for a girly punk hybrid. Add a leather jacket or some biker boots for a final tough touch.

#7 Seeking Frills Ruffles get romantic for summer in dreamy sherbet shades and florals. Give your officewear a feminine kick with a ruffled shirt, or take your frills on a day out in the sunshine with an all over ruffled summer dress.

#8 PJs for Dinner Posher than your average pyjamas, these silky twin sets are too good not to show off. Nightwear details can be found frequently this season, from silky tops and trousers to jumpsuits and dressing gown style spring coats. Take the boudoir to the boardroom in silky wide leg trouser and jacket two piece.

#9 Power Shoulders As we continue winter's love for the 80s, the power shoulder is back. Mix it up and team a shoulder padded jacket with a mini skirt, or work the piece into a modern silhouette by styling it with some cropped trousers.

#10 Big Sleeves It's all about the sleeves when it comes to women's SS17 trends - the bigger the better. Think boho bell sleeved jackets, blouson sleeved sweatshirts and cape sleeve cardigans. Wear yours with skinny jeans to keep the silhouette balanced.
