It's time to sail away from the classic Breton stripe. This season we're celebrating the power of stripes but in its most modern form. Stripes are colourful and bold and are moving in all directions. It's a look that has always worked in fashion and keeps on giving whether you're dressed for day or night.

Create a linear look with energetic shades and mix and match vertical, horizontal and stripes of all scales. Team together your macro and mini stripes to create a look straight off the catwalk. For added boost, amp up the drama with stripey accessories which is the easiest way to play on the trend.

For beautiful feminine designs be inspired by Gucci's vintage-inspired tea dresses and maxi balloon skirts that are subtler than the eye piercing looks of Anna Sui designs. If you dare, step away from your usual navy and white lines and make an impact with hot flashes of colour in wild combos which will shake up your wardrobe.

It's time to change your stripes.
