Trend: Camo

The camoflage trend seemingly always makes its rounds every few seasons. Be it traditional, neon or with a feminine twist it's a pattern that never goes out of style. It is a paradoxical thought that to stand out next season, wear camo, but with the new takes on the military staple, it's hard not to.

TREND: Church

When browsing the trend forecasts and looking back at the most recent fashion week, I've been drawn to the "Church" trend. I've always been drawn to religious imagery as I love the grandiose power of it and also the emotion it evokes in even the most Agnostic of viewers. I think that large scale depictions of religious icons always feel very omniscient and allow you to feel that there is a presence of a higher power, especially with buildings such as Sacre Coeur chapel.

I think that these fashionable takes on religious iconography not only help evoke that feeling of supremacy but also aesthetically appear like the paintings of Michelangelo and Raphael. There are also fashions that remind me of church in other ways such as the "Sunday Best", vicar collars and nun habits.

I've collected some images which are both from recent collections and past collections, other editorial imagery and non-fashion imagery as this is something I want to explore through editorial in our group magazine as a stylist.
