In both New York City and Europe there were many distinct fashion trends on the runway this season. It was clear that all of the designers were getting the same spring vibes. Runways are usually very intimidating and hard to relate to. It has most of us thinking things like “How would I wear that?” or “Is that even clothing?” Well not to worry; Storm Style to the rescue! We gathered the top trends on the runway and selected a few tznius and affordable tops, skirts, and shoes to inspire your everyday looks.

Gingham Style

Karen Walker, Michael Kors, and Oscar de la Renta all did the gingham style this season — but not the dance!

Spring is the perfect time for a picnic, but who has the time with our school work load? The least we can do is wear some picnic-inspired clothing with a cool gingham print. It was all over the runway this season and it’s currently in almost every store. Try it out in your hallway look.

Floral Skirts

Michael Kors, Miu Miu, and Undercover planted some fashion-forward skirts.

Spring is the season for…flowers! Literally. South Florida is wishing a farewell to the “cold” and happily welcoming flowers and trees! Not only will flowers grow in our soil but also in our style. Floral print was prominent on the runway, and mostly in skirts! This season try to pair a floral skirt with a solid top or even be a dare devil and go pattern-on-pattern!

White Hot

Christian Siriano and Ralph Lauren made sure to white out the runway.

 

The runway seemed more like a wedding isle than a runway with all of the white! Many of the looks this season were white from head to toe! This look is very clean and chic, but maybe a little gutsy for the hallway. Don’t worry, if they could pull it off, you can too! Give the all white look a try with these clothing pieces.

Glamorous Gladiators

Erdem (bottom) had a line up of models with gladiator sandals! Valentino (top left) and Fausto Puglisi (top right) followed suit. 

An unforgettable trend on the spring runway this year was the gladiator sandal. Whether it was up to the knee or just above the ankle, every designer had it. Getting a good pair of gladiators can be a little pricy. If treated well, these shoes should last a long time and are definitely worth the splurge. Give your everyday look a Romanesque vibe with the glamorous gladiator!

Doused in Denim

Dare to go denim like Fendi, Stella McCarthy, and Chloe.

Denim, denim, denim! The runway was filled with this classic fabric this season. From light to dark wash, denim complements any outfit. This look will be a staple this spring. Follow the trend and pull out your denim. Since it has always been a very popular style, change it up! Try a denim skirt or vest. Switch up the classic button down and explore different denim tops.
