Florals

"Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking," recites every person who has watched the iconic film The Devil Wears Prada. Florals are just one of those trends that never seem to go out of fashion .They reappear year after year just in different variations.Floral prints tend to be slightly kitsch, however the season’s florals felt fresh in their unabashed femininity, blooming up and down long, tiered skirts, ruffled jumpsuits, and voluminous sleeves. This year a more 70's approach towards florals was seen on the catwalks of designers like Givenchy, Prada and Miu Miu.
