GOLD COAST Hands up if, like us, you want to wear every piece in Zimmermann’s SS18 collection this summer. Creative director Nicky Zimmermann says she was “inspired by images from the 60s and 70s of Australia’s Gold Coast”. The dreamy collection is set against this bleached and barren backdrop, allowing the fabrics and sheers to really shine. Florals are spliced through accordion pleats, shorts err on the side of boardshorts, and bespoke lace features in appliqués and trims. Style it like this picture by pairing an exquisitely detailed dress with fresh white kicks, and surfer-chic shell anklets. If you weren’t dreaming of sandy shores before, you will be now.…

Whether she’s off-duty in an Adidas tracksuit and trainers or decked out in head-to-toe couture, London-born model Jourdan has a knack for looking effortless 24/7. Not one to shy away from current trends (unsurprising seeing as she’s walked for Balmain, Burberry and Prada), she’s seen here wearing the season’s most coveted colour, lavender, in the form of a Michael Kors Collection oversized sweater and skirt. Not sure it would look quite the same on us but we’ll give it a go… 3 of the best LAVENDER SHOP THIS PAGE ENDOURCE.COM/HFM…

STYLE TIP Opt for a pair of statement, colour-clashing shoe boots for day-to-night dressing. Simply dress up an oversized two-piece suit with a pair of killer kitten heels.…

‘A BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED COLLECTION USING SURPLUS FABRICS FROM DEFUNCT MILLS’ London Fashion Week was once again a whirlwind of both emerging and established British talent and craftsmanship, one which I navigated with ease in my own chauffeur-driven, shiny Range Rover Velar! Being glamorously ferried around on its eco-friendly seats (made from recycled plastic bottles!) kept me both blister free and on time – both quite novel experiences for me. I wore my usual mixture of high street and designer, and put great use to my new Staud Moreau bag (right), which I wore with Swedish Hasbeens clogs, street-style worthy wide-legged trousers from H&M, and an oversized Isa Arfen coat from its recent collaboration with Label/Mix. My SS18 runway shopping list includes a Rejina Pyo trench, this soft pink, jewel-adorned Mulberry…

1. Dress over jeans We’re hailing this the high-low version of occasionwear. If you’re worried about turning up to a party looking overdressed (is there anything worse?), then sticking a pair of jeans underneath is the easy way to wear your best frock for day. Not to mention it looks uber cool to boot. 2. Jump to it Special occasions usually have us reaching for a frock of some description, but we like the idea of branching out and donning a jumpsuit instead – even Royal Ascot has added them to the dress code. A wide-legged number cinched in at the waist is a universal figure-flatterer, too. 3 . Tee time Whilst a T-shirt might not be the first thing you reach for when you think ‘party’, it’s the coolest…

COLOUR POP These sunshine-tinged shades proved popular at the spring shows. Don’t be put off by the yellow bullet, a swipe of Dolce & Gabbana’s Gaetana, which has clever colour correcting properties, delivers a surprisingly flattering golden nude. The Angela tangerine tint peps up dull skin tones and has just the right amount of sheen to make lips look extra juicy. SUNNY NOTES After the heady, spicy scents of winter, Tom Ford’s new Eau de Soleil Blanc is refreshingly crisp. Thanks to its spirited citrus notes, this sultry vanilla blend will have you dreaming of limoncellosipping summers and booking your next trip pronto. Trust us, you’ll want to bathe in this stuff. HAPPY HAIR The lines between skincare and haircare are blurring, with brands creating high-performance cleansers, serums and even…

THE BRUSH UP “If you want something that feels polished, brush up the brow hairs near the bridge of your nose and then smooth the rest across,” says Ruby Hammer MBE, celebrity make-up artist. Not got your make-up bag to hand? “Castor oil is great for slicking and olive oil keeps the area glossy and moisturised,” suggests Vanita Parti, brow expert and founder of Blink Brow Bar. ANTI-BLOCK BROW “Bold brows are beautiful but filling them in with a flat colour looks old fashioned,” says Vanita. “Plus, most people use a shade that’s too dark for them and end up with chunky caterpillars,” adds Ruby. Go one shade lighter than your natural brow colour and apply soft feathery flicks from the inner corner to the arch. Then use a darker…

The BRIDALWEAR “Bohemian-style dresses are dominating – this trend can be adapted to many wedding scenarios,” says Katya Shehurina, founder of Katya Katya (pictured right). Or for something different: “At Browns Bride we carry jumpsuits from both Viktor & Rolf and Romona Keveza, which we’re selling a lot of for weddings – both are sharp and chic,” says Browns Bride’s Caroline Burstein. Caroline Burstein, founder of Browns Bride, brownsbride.com ; katyakatya.co.uk The CAKE “Huge wedding cakes are a continuing trend. We predict this year they’ll be inspired by the royal weddings. More opulent textures will play a significant role with marbling, sugar flowers, pressed flowers, edible lace, crackle effect, baroque moulds, gildings and sequins becoming more dominant. Metallic effects are also here to stay and…

INTERNATIONAL JET-SETTER, actress and growing fashion player Alessandra Balazs, who has confessed to loving French style, grew up between London, New York and Paris. When she was a child her mum, Katie Ford of Ford Models, would regularly invite the likes of Naomi Campbell and Chanel Iman around to the family’s Manhattan home. It’s no surprise then that the party scene regular knows how to throw an outfit together. The brunette, who has recently become pally with Meghan Markle (her boyfriend Arthur Landon is friends with Prince Harry), has said she likes to mix and match designers – some of her favourites being Chanel, Carolina Herrera, Misha Nono and Monique Lhuillier. Alessandra has inherited cool credentials from both parents; her hotelier dad André Balazs owns a glowing repertoire of hotels…

SENSORY OVERLOAD From full-on fringing and architectural ruffles to barely-there sheers and sequins – SS18 is the season of OTT embellishment BOLD BEADING Designers were divided over subtle statements and extreme detailing this season. While some brands – Erdem, Miu Miu and Giambattista Valli – opted for delicate 3D florals and appliqué pearl droplets, others, House of Holland in particular, went all out with chunky beaded seat cover-inspired looks (the sort mini cab drivers like) and statement footwear. FANTASY FEATHERS When Anthony Vaccarello sent those thigh-high yeti boots down the Saint Laurent runway, we knew there and then that fluffy marabou plumage would be a major trend. Similarly at Rodarte, Nina Ricci and Céline, ostrich feather details featured on tunics, mini dresses and jackets. They may not be rain-friendly, but…

Although he’s celebrating 15 years in the business, designer Bora Aksu still enjoys the run-up to London Fashion Week. “It still feels like my first,” he says of his AW18 anniversary collection, when we talk to him before his show in February. “I still have that feeling – that’s the reason I started doing this.” Turkish-born Bora’s studio is based in a block in a remote part of south-east London, which houses four other designers including Mark Fast. Reached via Docklands Light Railway, it isn’t the easiest place to find. “We have this with models getting lost,” he reassures us when we turn up five minutes late. After meeting us at the door, the smiley designer, in his signature black jeans and V-neck jumper, leads us through the small unit…

In her shoes Following the successful launch of her eponymous label last year, Alexa Chung has joined forces (once again) with iconic Italian plimsoll brand Superga. The model and fashion muse is not only the face of the SS18 campaign, but also the creative director of an exclusive capsule collection inspired by her own enviable style. The classic Superga silhouette has been reinterpreted in distinctive fabrics like varnished satin and terry towelling, in feminine off-white, burgundy and sky-blue hues – think Parisian chic with a New York edge.…

Iskra is living her best life. At the forefront of the body positive movement, she has four million Instagram followers and has helped redefine what it means to be beautiful. Aged 15, Worcester-born Iskra was dropped from her first modelling agency because her hips were ‘too big’. “There were stylists who fat-shamed me in public,” says the 27-year-old. Now she’s signed to two of the world’s biggest agencies, JAG in the US and London’s Models 1. From global ‘role model’ for US lingerie giant Aerie to body confidence activist, as ambassador for National Eating Disorders Association, TED speaker, founder of online self-care platform EveryBody With Iskra and now part of L’Oréal’s new I Woke Up Like This campaign, she’s the ultimate multi-hyphen model.

Nutritional health coach, artist and businesswoman Marie Guerlain, lives in a large gated home, in a particularly leafy suburb of south-west London. After buzzing the intercom a housekeeper meets us at the grand entrance, with a smiley young boy, falling off her hip, who announces he “wants to find mummy”. We’re led through a sizeable hallway; into an open plan kitchen, which looks out on to the well-groomed garden, to find mum. “We moved here about three months ago, to be slightly outside of central London,” the descendant of French fragrance house Guerlain, one of the oldest in the world, tells us. “We love it, there’s more space and peace – plus plenty of parks.” Marie, 42, lives in the detached new build with her financier husband, their three sons…

It’s hard to believe that Kylie Minogue is celebrating her 30th year in showbiz – even, it seems, for Kylie herself. “I’m amazed. And tired,” laughs the pop star, who will celebrate another milestone when she turns 50 in May. However, when we meet her for a catch-up over tea and macaroons at London’s Corinthia Hotel, she appears as effervescent and youthful as she was when she first shot to fame on Neighbours in the 80s. “I couldn’t pick a highlight from the past three decades,” she muses. “Although there are the obvious ones – like performing at the Sydney Olympics in 2000 and the Queen’s Jubilee concert in 2012.” And Kylie is hoping to kick off her next decade in style. Her new album, Golden, is out in April…
