Sheer garb continues to have a choke hold on fashionistas worldwide and it looks like skirts are the newest obsession.

DO BE BLUE

It’s not turquoise, it’s not lapis and it’s actually not cerulean—it’s light blue. This cool and calming hue was seemingly everywhere during fashion week, from the runways of Fendi and Versace in Milan to Balmain in Paris and then some. The pastel hue certainly fits the season but more than that, it also looks good on a variety of skin tones.

Utility dressing is a crowd favourite for three reasons: it’s comfortable, almost effortless and the multiple pockets are a game changer. Hermès and Saint Laurent showcased how avant garde this trend can be with dresses in technical fabric and cargo pencil skirts that cinch at the waist respectively, while Isabel Marant opted for the ultimate cool-girl route with an oversized cargo dress.
