The Tee word

No Debutante loves big, bright and colourful t-shirts. Check a few of the latest looks from the No D wardrobe featuring abstract prints, kawaii imagery and streetwear logos. Just 'cos the winter is coming it doesn't mean you have to neglect your tees, layer them over long sleeve tops especially a skinny polo-neck (a big fashion combo this year) or wrapped up under cuddly cardigans, remember a t-shirt is for life not just for the summer...

Typical Freaks Spring/Summer 18 Lookbook faves

Just over a year ago I shared the Typical Freaks love with you all here on the No Debutante blog. I am always so inspired by independent designers that incorporate bright colours, inspiring cutting skills and their own graphic prints into their creations. Typical Freaks epitomise this style and still create handmade prints covering voluminous shapes and staying true to their kawaii punk beginnings, seven collections in as Typical Freaks. 

Here are some of the No Debutante faves from the Spring/Summer 18 Lookbook. 
The colours mix together lush greens and blues with bold yellow, pretty pinks with contrasting greys and bright oranges, in the familiar Typical Freaks sea urchin style abstract prints, the candy coloured vertical stripes and an appearance of a new monkey print outlined in black, Keith Haring style. Shapes are voluminous and billowing, in fun childlike t-shirts and dresses, with white denim style cottons printed up or in full on bold and summery colours. Frills feature heavily again, with elasticated style gathers appearing on dresses and trousers in a big mash up of kawaii punk sportswear that looks super bright and super comfy! The styling is topped off with bold coloured eyes or lips, printed socks and a return of the white sandal this summer! Nice! 

The last image is from Typical Freaks AW17 Lookbook, this outfit is amazing, look at the frills, the oversized cut and the prints for starters! It also shows you how versatile fashion is becoming with many designers now opting for unisex garms for all. I think we are a bit early on in the day to see gender specific areas banished from clothing stores but there certainly is a change in the air within the genres of fashion at the moment, which is both inspiring and exciting!

Current Obsessions - Libertine RTW - A festival of colour

If there is a designer that can take you from the summers glittery, colour wash of festival vibes to a bright and shimmery winter it has to be Johnson Hartig's, Ready to wear collections for Libertine. 

There are certain pieces that have caught No Debutante's eye from both the 2017 and 2018 collections. With glistening sportsluxe tracksuits, Warhol's pop art bananas on tweed granny coats and joggers to tie dye smothered hoodies. With retro style jumpers, print clashes and the return of leopard print, this time in XL prints.  It's a metallic glam, print clash, streetwear mess and will cheer up any winter! Napoleon hat optional!

Oversized tie dye hoodies a must for this winter!

 Super shine sequin emblazoned bomber jackets are everywhere this winter. Get inspired!
