August 16, 2021 at 06:11AM Arguably the most important runway trend for autumn/winter 2021 is a return to loud, highly pigmented colours. From cerise mini dresses with matching tights and satin platforms at Versace (perhaps my favourite catwalk look of the entire season) through to the mix ‘n’ match super-brights in oversized shapes at Raf Simons, designers are painting a vibrant scene for the months to come. The vibe, however, is already coming to the fore ahead of time on social media. Whether brightening up the streets of London or taking something standout on staycation, Brit girls are backing the look wholeheartedly, choosing solid-colour, ultra-vibrant dresses by the dozen. Elsewhere on planet fashion, you’ll find the Scandi crews continuing to flex their colour-clashing muscles, wearing complementary tones together (cobalt blue and bright orange, anyone?), while some of our Italian pals seem particularly invested in canary yellow.…

August 16, 2021 at 06:00AM For many of us tie-dye will have specific, and possibly negative, associations with the ’90s. It was a look that was prevalent in teen TV shows and regularly spotted on famous girl band members, and it exuded a certain sort of bohemian spirit that demanded accompanying ripped denim, eye-wateringly bright accessories and a general ‘too cool for school’ attitude. Well, like it or not, the trend has returned, with a plethora of tie-dye buys cropping up on the runways of Off-White, Dior, Stella McCartney and Proenza Schouler this season.I would’ve never put myself down as a tie-dye type, but thanks to the unexpectedly chic stylings of brands such as COS, I have found myself slowly coming round to the idea. While I won’t be rocking the full throwback outfits, I have enjoyed styling tie-dye tees with polished staples, such as…

August 16, 2021 at 05:03AM When you’re short, shopping for clothing is a bit of a battle. As someone who’s under 5'3", I’ve regularly found myself in fitting rooms trying on laughably long jeans or jackets that make me look like I’ve come straight from the ‘80s (such as unintentionally oversize shoulders). If you’re nodding along in empathy, rest assured that I feel your pain. But it doesn’t have to be this way.While we should all embrace whatever size, shape or height we are, I know that for me, sometimes appearing and feeling a little taller helps with being more confident, which is why I’ve looked to petite Instagrammers to gather some tips on how to dress a smaller frame. Although they have their own takes on fashion, there’s one thing they tend to avoid: anything overly layered. Now, on to their secrets…1. Show your…

August 15, 2021 at 08:00AM Working out what your skin really needs to look and feel its best can be tricky, but there are a few steps that skin experts unanimously agree should be part of a good skincare routine. First, a good cleanser; think of this step as the foundation on which the rest of your routine is built. Second, an SPF; wearing sun protection is the one piece of skincare advice that I hear most from dermatologists for preventing everything from signs of ageing to pigmentation. Third, moisturiser is vital for every skin type, from oily to dry, for repairing the skin’s barrier and maintaining hydration levels. Finally, a serum, which is possibly one of my favourite steps in my skincare routine and one that Kate Moss’s facialist told me is key to maintaining youthful, glowy skin.However, serums undoubtedly have a bit of a bad reputation for being costly, so it’s understandable that many people…

August 15, 2021 at 08:00AM If you’re a regular reader of Who What Wear, you’re probably well acquainted with Kate Middleton’s wardrobe. She dresses pretty classically, but occasionally she’ll surprise us with something a bit different (case in point: this chic outfit with Warehouse and Chanel). The list of the designers she often turns to is pretty definite: often Alexander McQueen and Jenny Packham and occasionally Erdem, Emilia Wickstead and Roksanda. But it’s not just the more expensive end of the spectrum she’s a fan of. She regularly wears high-street pieces from a range of brands, from Superga sneakers to & Other Stories dresses. But, and I’m going to put my stake in the ground here, her favourite store has to be Zara.For years she’s worn pieces from the high-street brand and always makes them look super expensive. Yesterday she attended a Euros game with…

August 15, 2021 at 08:00AM Do you feel that? The flowers are blooming, the sun is staying out longer, and celebrities are back at it with their bikini posts. That’s right—nature is healing, and the Earth is returning to its natural state. With all things summer on the brain, we can’t stop thinking about all the stunning swimwear trends that are hitting the market right now, and based on the Instagram feeds on our favourite A-listers, neither can they. True, there might only be a handful of days that we’ll be wearing these in the UK but we can still hope that the summer is going to be hot. Celebs from Hailey Bieber to Lizzo to Jennifer Lopez (who quite frankly never takes a day off) aren’t waiting another moment to break out their chicest swimwear looks, and in true Who What Wear fashion, we’re here to document every last bikini. As summer goes from…
