Denim is on trend this Autumn – how will you wear it?
Denim has been a staple of our wardrobes for decades as it’s versatile, durable and can be dressed up or down as occasion demands. Seems like we never tire of denim and catwalks this year have certainly been embracing this universal fabric.
Jeans come in a range of styles so suit every shape and size with slouchy baggy wide-leg jeans being this summer’s most popular silhouette, alongside the sculptural ‘horseshoe’. Think vintage, boho and relaxed. In contrast, tailored jeans make a different statement with an air of sophistication.
I’ve spotted a lot of young women wearing long fitted denim skirts which takes me back to the 70s. I picked up an amazing denim trench coat recently which was reminiscent of one I used to wear with a long gold skinny tassel scarf and love beads.
While I enjoy a trip down memory lane, fashion is also about moving forward and finding your own style.
At my next Re-Fashion pop-up at Grand Arcade in Cambridge, I'll have some of the jackets, coats and dungarees I’ve been customising on the rails. I’m hoping this will be a source of inspiration to people wanting to add some individuality to their wardrobe.
Make the most of your denim styling sessions
You probably have a fair bit of denim already. Most of us do. But perhaps you’ve fallen out of love with the garments or feel they’re dated and not fitting in with other clothes you wear.
Help is on hand. Velvet Magazine stylist Kath Goodwin is running styling sessions over the Re-Fashion weekend 28/29 September to help you invigorate your wardrobe. She can offer ideas and advice on how to up-style or even transform your denim clothing into new garments and accessories.
Book a 45-minute session with Kath for just £15.
When and where does all this excitement take place?
Re-Fashion: Denim Edition runs over the weekend of 28/29 September in the Let's Go Circular unit, upstairs at Grand Arcade, Cambridge. For more information contact shop@trashchic.co.uk
