Any true fan of fashion will know flowers are having a moment this season. But while dainty prints and pretty patterns have become staples as far as the shops are concerned, now it's time to ramp it up with power florals. These are big designs splashed across any piece of clothing you can think of – and usually worn from head to toe.
The designers in New York had this look down for Spring/Summer 12. Custo Barcelona showed muted chiffon tunics which boasted a floral pattern, while for evenings things got a bit darker with purples and blacks coming to the fore.Later in the show, floral trousers were mixed with printed sleeveless tops, in what will be one of the hottest looks of the next few months.
Cynthia Rowley also went big on flowers, showing prom dresses which were festooned with huge blooms. For those who like to be a bit more fashion-forward, there were skin-tight leggings covered in flowers paired with silky kimono-style tops in an equally eye-catching print which also had peplums.
The all out look isn't one for shrinking violets. Only try it if you don't mind being stared at in the street, or if you want to play it down a bit perhaps give it a go on a big night out.
For those who want to inject a little bit of pretty into their lives why not invest in a voluminous shirt covered in a pretty flowered print? Wear loose and casual over a pair of brightly-coloured jeans for a cool take on the trend.
