A Sneak Preview of Spring Summer S15 – Key Beauty Looks

A Sneak Preview of Spring Summer S15 – Key Beauty Looks
The keys trends for next year are out and for all the fashion stylists out there, we have the key looks to stay on trend in 2015. Firstly, pony tails and laits are here to stay – the long plait was seen across many of the runways which was loosely woven in a relaxed style. Braids are here to stay for another season. 



Jeanie Syfu lead stylist for Marissa Webb used BW by Beauty Works to add texture and thickness to her runway braids.

Make Up – In terms of make up, the ‘ natural look’ continues to stay on trend – in terms of styling the runways look was a lighter foundations mixed with gold shades of blusher to highlight the contour lines of the cheek. The core impact, in terms of beauty, was focused around the lips – where red fushia, coral orange in matt dominated.


In terms of jewellery – it is all about the eyebrows - thick eyebrows with punk jewellery will be a key trend next year and will compliment the punk vibe. Rodarte's Kate and Laura Mulleavy brought back the 90’s eyebrow look with each girl wearing 14 eyebrow rings.


Rings layered on all fingers and nail varnish duo art continues to be massive. Nail art is a growing trend and just when everyone thought Shellac would take over – think again, graffiti, sparkles,  multi coloured complimented with stacking rings on any finger and thumb are all in.

London Fashion Week 2014 – Best of British


London’s Fashion Week came a week after the Vote of Independence, and show cased the Best of  British design. This week it was all about the SS2015 collection which was inspired by 1960-70’s Flower Power, Rainbow, Punk and Sports Luxe.


Matthew Williamson's Collection
Ruffles, feathers, sequins and exotic style too held centre stage, it seemed bold is brilliant. There was a lot of exotic shades dominating the catwalk in aqua, orange and hot pink.

House of Holland SS15 - If there's was one message it was Flower Power is here to stay.
Nude and Barely Bare continues to be a big trend with Sheer and Nudes being exposed on the runway.

Seductive seemed like the order of the day, but beware loud, whimsical and avant-garde is here and we saw brightly coloured frou-frou skirts, bold prints, knitwear, with cherry red, whites, oranges and blues.


Punk and Crops tops with sweatpants and slashed jumpers continued the sports-luxe theme.
 In summary,  tops and skirts featuring geometric patterns on light coloured fabric, covered by a mesh to create an optical illusion, florals and the power of print  reflected in Topshops Unique collection, punk and luxe chic, nude, sparkles and sheer will form part of the strong trends for 2015.
