silhouette for Cos this
spring. Large, rounded
shoulders on black
dresses, white prints
on black emphasising
the structure of dresses,
while peplum miniskirts
stand stiffly away from
the body to give a stylish
line. Large pocket details

and there’s the softest
of suede coats (our
favourite) that’s a great
investment piece. It’s

French Connection abounds with colour
this spring and is loving the dress. Simple
shift dresses are loose, airy and Sixties in
feel in neon bright shades, scattered with
sequins. Little black pieces have exquisite
shoulder detailing. Look out for the silk
jumpsuits that start hitting stores in March.

Karen Millen’s new collection
steps quietly into the new
season with a palette of calm
neutrals in oyster and grey.
Ruffles decorate pale silk
tops, which look great worn
with their jersey trousers or
cupro silk suits. We love the
vintage-look, lace jacket
(right) with bold shoulders.
Famous for a good evening
dress, this season gorgeous
cocktail dresses are jewelled
or hugely ruffled (very Stella
McCartney) at the shoulders.
Brighter colours and prints
will hit stores in March.
