LAHORE:
As the late days of autumn transition into winter, the weather in many parts of the world becomes increasingly unpredictable. For us fashionistas, this makes getting dressed all the harder. Will a light jacket do? What if it starts raining and you end up ruining your new top?
We at The Express Tribune believe that it’s therefore, very important to keep a stock of the right kind of clothing come winter. Tricky outfit choices are likely to spring up every morning and these in-between-the-seasons days can be quite challenging. Below, we bring you some key trends to make the decisions easier. Read on and be on your way to a wonderful winter wardrobe!
1. Bomber jackets
If you follow today’s it-girls Kylie Jenner or Gigi Hadid (or basically don’t live under a rock), you will know that the bomber jacket is big right now and the trend’s not going anywhere. It’s a perfect transition piece for when the weather starts to cool down so you don’t have to put it away until way later.
2. Velvet
Thinking of experimenting this year? This luxe fabric is the one to test. Velvet, in every way, is huge right now – in formal wear to even pants and casual looks. This season, the fashion pack has been seen wearing their velvet in flared pants paired with a classic denim jackets to break up the look. All you have to do is make sure the velvet you’re opting for works, lest your outfit looks too cheesy, instead of edgy. If you’re really feeling adventurous and want to kill two birds with one stone, sport two trends at once by sporting velvet over-the-knee boots.
3. Overalls
This season, one must invest in a pair of denim overalls. These actually became trendy a few fashion seasons back but are still going very strong. The styling possibilities with overalls are endless: Roll up the pant legs, throw them on over a simple tee or a turtle neck and you’re ready for just about anything.
4. Faux fur
While faux fur has been around for decades, it’s a trend that never seems to go out of style. Whether it is a jacket or vest, the furry material will no doubt keep you cozy. Not to mention, it’s the chicest trend on the current winter fashion list and the best part is that there are so many shades and animal prints to choose from.
5. Front slit pants
These are something that took their sweet time to grow on us but now, we are totally feeling them!
