Looking around the shops colours that are in fashion are bright reds&blues, different shades of purples and olivey greens. Also white is incoperated in alot of clothes with coloured patterns. However, in jewlerry golds and illuminous colours are also back in fashion. Styles that are back in fashion are the hippy and punk looks, but mainly the vintage versace look. This includes floral and shape prints, i have mainly focused on this look in my report.
