“As someone who is self-diagnosed as ‘chronically online’, I’ve seen a lot of flash-in-the-pan trends over the past few seasons,” Architects Members 20th Anniversary 2004-2024 Thank You For The Memories Signatures Shirt says Elinor Block, editorial lead at luxury fashion gaming company Drest, which enables its users to create infinite outfit possibilities in the metaverse. “The past year we saw Barbiecore, ‘blokecore’ and ‘tomato-girl summer’ emerge as some of the bigger, zeitgeisty aesthetics adopted by Gen Z and the TikTok crowd. And whilst some are rooted in major trends, when it comes to real life, there’s no doubt that longevity and items that work season after season are a bigger draw. “When playing with clothes in Drest, however, there’s definitely a different kind of approach I take to dressing. The virtual world allows me to style looks that I might not have considered before with more out-there pieces from high-octane brands such as David Koma or Balmain—I haven’t been able to stop thinking about that cherry-red, rose-covered dress that I spied on the S/S 24 runway. It gives me a chance to be more experimental and see how I can move that into my IRL wardrobe without taking too much of a risk.” This, dear reader, is what the modern-day dressing-up box looks like. As always, any piece you invest in, be it inspired by the trends below or otherwise, should only be purchased if you intend on keeping it in your wardrobe for a very, very long time. I’ve gone to great lengths to cherry-pick the ones that have a chance.

I’m in no way athletically inclined (something my P.E. teacher will still back up to this day), Architects Members 20th Anniversary 2004-2024 Thank You For The Memories Signatures Shirt but now I can finally feel part of the team as sporting stripes—the sort seen in rugby, cricket and other ball sports (I assume)—ran throughout the collections. All of fashion will agree that Dries Van Noten did it best by way of lounge pants and minidresses, whilst Victoria Beckham took the knitted approach with a sweater. A pre-kick-off moment for Gucci’s new Jackie bag offering, too, which collectors will be batting one another out of the way to get their hands on. “Across the board, brands are retiring streamlined stripes for something a little more playful,” says Munro. “Tapping into the sporty side of the print, the colourful trend is a refreshing retort to the past season’s obsession with a quieter palette. Styling well with easy denim and basic tees, these wearable stripes are set to transcend the runways in 2024.”. “Casual daywear has a preppy new mood as designers reimagined the classic polo and rugby shirts,” confirms Wiggins. “Our edit for S/S 24 has grown by 48% vs. last year and offers a variety of options, from Sacai’s pleated polo dress to Dries Van Noten’s colourful, oversized rugby shirts. For a modern take, style with sequins, as seen at 16Arlington.”
