Flaunt your chic spirit, sparkle and mesmerise in this month’s voluminous sleeves and sunshine shades...

Big SLEEVES
From uber-chic kimonos to poetic tunics and balloon blouses, this season is all about wearing those sleeves with vivacious volume. Make a dramatic style statement with this flowing silhouette that succeeds in adding a flattering femininity to complement your curves. Great for disguising a multitude of sins, this capacious trend has been spotted in a number of collections that include Narcisco Rodriguez, Anne Klein, Gayatri Khanna and Pria Kataria Puri. The best way to pull off this look is by wearing a belted top or dress which gives definition to the waist, or to team it with a pair of skinny jeans and fabulous high heels. Graceful, comfortable and fairy-like; be sure to spread your wings with this wearable trend.

YELLOW and Gold
Dazzle, shimmer and shine in this season’s hot trend of gold and yellow tones. With a wide colour palette that ranges from canary yellow and acid lemon to creamy caramel and burnished bronze, these bold tones enliven the winter weeks with versatility and style. Appropriate for night or day, you can experiment with every type of silhouette ranging from sweet to seductive. From vintage inspired banana smocks to beautiful honey satin ball gowns, enthrall and captivate with this sunny trend. If you prefer a slightly more subtle look, opt for just a hint of lush gold or yellow worn as a chic accessory. Look out for some gorgeous, gleaming creations by designers like Anupamaa Dayal, Rakesh Agarvwal, Alberta Ferretti and Emanuel Ungaro.
