Bold Florals

It is a wonder that it has taken mainstream womenswear brands so long to cotton onto this highly marketable trend – no high street retailer worth their salt was spotted without a floral piece in their window display this summer. For this market, designers opted for the bolder prints, in bright shades contrasted with black and white. Scarlet, fuchsia and ice blue were the most popular options, on occasionwear jackets, summer shirts and longer dresses.
