Here’s the lowdown on the sizzling trends of 2013. Up your X-factor with the latest in town

VIBRANT ORANGE

1) Soft Grey Rs. 2799
2) AWS Rs. 1199
3) Laura Clement Rs. 3449
4) Jigsaw Rs. 1800
5) La Redoute Rs. 3049

Orange is this season’s hot colour and exudes vigour, enthusiasm and celebration. Red oranges and rust oranges are spot-on choices.

 

FULL LENGTH JUMPSUITS – Soft Grey Rs. 2949
That grumpy professor has no chance now to pull you for wearing short clothes. Printed r dotted full-length jumpsuits not only accentuate the curves but also look better than plain, unpatterned ones.

ASSYMETRICAL DESIGNS – Love Rs. 3840
Symmetry has been discarded and chaos welcomed instead. Assymetrical cuts in dresses and skirts accentuate the shape of the legs, making them look longer, and cover up flabby calfs. Pairing these with flats is a good option.

ANKLE STRAPS – La Redoute Rs. 1849, La Redoute – Rs. 2799
Comfortable fashion is this year’s mantra. Apart from looking chic and elegant, ankle straps hold on to your feet while you run up and down your college stairs.

STRIPES – Rs. 1399, United Colours of Benetton – Rs. 1999
Be it horizontal or vertical stripes, both are winners this year. Horizontal stripes will look best if worn by flat-tummy gals and vertical stripes will best suit the gals with a fuller abdomen.

CLOCHE HATS –  Anne Weyburn Rs. 2649
Caps are always cool, but they are a mismatch when teamed with women’s dresses, skirts and blouses. Cloche caps form the best match with women’s wear. Buy one or two in neutral colours (beige, grey) so it can complement most of your wardrobe treasures.

BLUE MANIA
Men in blue are back to woo the ladies. Shades in bright cobalt and ink blue are the best picks this year.
1. La Redoute – Rs. 1394
2. Bench – Rs. 999
3. Edeis – Rs. 3104
4. Freecultr – Rs. 299

COLOURED CHINOS
Be it the twisted chinos or the straight cut, sporting them in bright colours like red or green will make you sizzle. If you’re highly conscious of your style and feel it’s gaudy for you, then choose twisted chinos in subtle colours like brown or beige.
1. Asos – Rs. 4000
2. Jack & Jones – Rs. 3600
3. Asos – Rs. 4000

MILITARY STYLE JACKETS – Rs. 4399
Reefer jackets are back with a bang. Not only do they keep you warm and glad but they also make a style statement.

SUEDE BELT – Soft Grey – Rs. 1849
The texture of suede speaks for itself. Suede belts stand out best with light coloured trousers.

JOG JEANS – Diesel Rs. 16000, Jack Jones – Rs. 6300
When comfy sweatpants mate with jeans they give birth to Jogg Jeans. These can be worn anywhere indoors, outdoors, in flight, etc. Canvas shoes or ankle length boots are good to go with Joggs.

DUAL COLOURED LOAFERS – Tresmode – Rs. 5500
Sporting loafers in two contrasting colours or different shades of the same colour is in. Pair yours with a neutral-coloured chino in beige or sage green, or denim jeans.
