Within the deep blue sea a plethora of fashion inspiration is swimming, floating and bobbing around. Slivery scales, bright coral and gentle waves have been the driving force behind many of this year’s top designs at fashion week. Designers like Chanel, Givency, Alexander McQueen and Versace have all shown stunning sea inspired collections. Some designers are letting the sea dictate their silhouette choices, we have seen mermaid, starfish and fish tail shapes up and down the runway. Other designers chose to show their love of sea inspired fashion but using ocean theme prints and textures like rolling waves, sea form pastels and scale like embellishments.
It’s easy to achieve a casual ocean inspired look in the summer or spring time. We suggest opting for a bright pink coral dress with sand tone accents. This look is fresh, beachy and perfect for the warm weather months. In the winter you can still master a sea inspired look, you just have to be a bit more subtle. For a winter time cocktail party or date night we suggest a silver knee length dress that has a pattern that mimics the oceans waves. This look is classic, sexy and still channels the calming vibe of the ocean in an ultra-chic way.
