The most popular fashion trends of 2017

Forget the beret for one moment. The newsboy cap has bobbed up atop the heads of many a street styler this season. And they’ve even got the catwalk stamp of approval, as models at Dior stepped out in denim baker boy headgear aplenty for SS18. [Photo: Getty]

You can’t scroll for five minutes through your Instagram feed without spotting a baker boy cap or two. And we have a hunch that it’s down to Bella Hadid’s penchant for highly covetable hats. [Photo: @lucywilliams02]

Valentino gave us a glimpse of the future when the brand sent models down the runway in clashing millennial pink and crimson red. And it hasn’t slowed down since. The 20^th anniversary of Princess Diana’s death reintroduced us to her inimitable wardrobe and nobody knew how to colour-block quite like her. [Photo: Getty]

And the colour trend translated well on the streets, as fashion month saw journalists and influencers alike decked in pink and red. Regardless of the season, it’s a sartorial trick that works wonders. Bring on 2018. [Photo: @hannamw]

For her Dior debut, Maria Grazia Chiuri sent models down the runway bearing feminist slogans emblazoned across their chests. Ever since, we’ve been coveting statement t-shirts aplenty. Don’t even get us started on the Gucci logo tee… [Photo: Getty]

Lucy Williams took to Instagram earlier this year to make us green with envy, as she graced the streets in her must-have Gucci tee. We’re still saving up for one. Fingers crossed they’re in fashion next season, too… [Photo: @lucywilliams02]

One thing we definitely did not anticipate this year was the return of the kitten heel. Once regarded a fashion faux pas, the ladylike shoe won over our hearts (albeit reluctantly) when Maria Grazia Chiuri brought them back for her Dior debut. And they’re here to stay, as Prada sent models down the runway in SS18-approved miniature heels. [Photo: Getty]

Pernille Teisbaek never fails to make us lust over every single item in her wardrobe (or on her Instagram feed). And she demonstrated just how we’ll be wearing the trend this season in some Balenciaga knife numbers a few months back. [Photo: @pernilleteisbaek]

It all started when the likes of JW Anderson, Delpozo and Loewe sent models down the runway in mismatched jewels the sized of our palms. And this season, the trend is still going strong with many of us desperate to recreate the one earring trend. It’s harder than it looks… [Photo: Getty]

Look to the likes of blogger Janka Polliani for inspiration on how to wear the supersized trend this season. Because they’re here to stay, as Teatum Jones, Fyodor Golan and Paula Knorr sent models down the runway for SS18 in one mighty earring. [Photo: @polliani]

The likes of Balenciaga and Versace reminded us that athleisure is not going anywhere, as models sported luxe tracksuits and puffer jackets galore for autumn winter 2017. [Photo: Getty]

And yep, we listened. The street style set wouldn’t be prepped for fashion week without a Champion tracksuit or two. This year, we also learnt that it’s totally acceptable to team kitten heels with track pants (even if your mum doesn’t get it). [Photo: Instagram]

Ruffles are one of the only trends that translates well off the catwalk and on the streets. And ever since Delpozo introduced us to crisp ruffles and supersized earrings, we’ve been hooked. [Photo: Getty]

Mancunian fashion blogger Megan Ellaby is no stranger to seventies-inspired ruffles so take to her blog for sartorial inspiration this season. [Photo: @meganellaby]

This wouldn’t be a trend gallery without pink now, would it? Yes, the hue of the season has reigned at the top for the past few years. We had an indication that it would resurface when the likes of Valentino and Balenciaga sent models down the runway in the millennial shade… [Photo: Getty]

What better way to tackle two trends in one than investing in a pastel-hued suit? Every fashion month this year, pink has proven itself a sure-fire winner on the streets. [Photo: @polliani]

From Dior to Valentino, miniature handbags were in abundance during the SS17 shows. And ever since, we’ve been on the lookout for nineties-esque accessories in XXS. [Photo: Getty]

Models of the moment Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner are the unofficial campaigners of the trend. And the fashion pack has followed suit, swapping the supersized for the super small. [Photo: @pernilleteisbaek]

We thought we bid cheerio to ugly footwear a few seasons ago but if Prada’s SS18 show is anything to go by, they’re back and well, uglier than ever. [Photo: Getty]

You can thank the Scandi pack for the ugly footwear taking to the streets this season. With a penchant for chunky New Balance lace-ups, they’re juxtaposing floral Ganni dresses with sports footwear left, right and centre. And we cannot get enough. We’re not sure we’re cool enough to pull off the look though. [Photo: @pernilleteisbaek]

Last autumn, the fash pack was well and truly divided. Thanks to Balenciaga, the nineties puffer jacket made a surprising comeback. And we weren’t all on board. But whether you’re a fan or not, they’re here to stay. [Photo: Getty]

Every fashion week, the street style set stepped out in a puffer or two. And this season, they’re mixing it up. Look for bold hues such as cobalt blue. [Photo: @polliani]

The wicker basket bag landed on the runway in autumn 2016 and ever since, we’ve been guilty of collecting a couple. We blame Tory Burch for our newfound obsession. [Photo: Getty]

Over the summer, it was almost an unsaid competition between bloggers to see who had managed to bag the best wicker number. And the Instagram infiltration certainly resulted in us swiping our cards a few times ahead of our holidays. [Photo: @camillecharriere]

For her Dior debut, Maria Grazia Chiuri sought inspiration from the label’s roots. Yes, the designer brought back the most quintessentially French accessory in existence. The beret. Merci! [Photo: Getty]

Bloggers have been channelling the Parisian aesthetic ever since Dior gave us sartorial lessons in the art of French dressing. Regardless of the season, it’s a keeper. [Photo: Lea Schleiffer]

Swedish label of the moment, Ganni, has successfully dressed a large majority of the fashion crowd for a second year running. And we can’t say we’re surprised. Who could possibly resist the temptation of the brand’s slogan t-shirts and our personal favourite, the smock dress? [Photo: @ganni]

It was a struggle to narrow this down to one street style snap but what better way to wear the smock dress than with a pair of lace-ups? Seek inspo from the Scandi pack this season. [Photo: @ganni]

Mother of Pearl proved bedroom attire is back for another season during the SS18 shows. Models stepped out in co-ordinating prints clutching pillow-effect clutches under their arms. [Photo: Getty]

It’s the trend that keeps on giving. We’ll be taking inspo from Pernille Teisbaek this season and leaving our PJ shirt half-tucked. [Photo: @styledumonde]
