Voir Fashion Issue 17 - Taking the Rocky Road starring A$AP Rocky

Editor’s Letter The 80’s are back!

Want evidence? See Isabel Marant and Saint Laurent’s oneshoulder party dresses. Brace yourself it’s time to raise your shoulder game. Think exaggerated sleeves, pearls, bubble hem skirts and fish net tights (as seen at Chanel and Saint Laurent).

Madonna will be pleased!

If that all sounds a bit over the top for you, there were more casual day-to-day takes on ‘80s fashion across the runways.

Not sure where to start? The Voir Runway edit, stylishly flanked

by Hannah Oulton’s insightful Hip&Runway, is jam-packed with inspiration, and sure to have you looking on fleek this season.

Designers focused predominantly on eveningwear this Autumn/ Winter: yes, stilettos are back in town along with sequins, ruffles, satin, leather, lace and latex. Cocktail dressing was taken to a whole new level as sequins glittered and twinkled across the catwalks, but nobody put them together quite like Preen! The knockout collection had us literally preening for more, and our trend reporter Rachel Langan delving deeply behind the scenes at their AW‘16 show to discover why we should all be investing in a sequined number come the cocktail hour.

Meanwhile, over in Paris there is a new wave that is Vetements.

Demna Gvasalia is the In-Designer and the clothes are near on avant-garde. Our fashion writer Kat Evans has ventured behind the scenes at one of this season’s most talked-about shows, to get an insight into what we can expect from this highly-sought-after brand!
