AW trends 2020
Latest News
Spring/Summer 20 was a journey, we went from looking forward to endless days out and catch-up with friends to embracing loungewear as our daily uniform.
The heatwaves allowed us to enjoy staycations in our shorts, even if we just ventured to the garden. With the change in weather and autumn in full swing we hope that it brings us more chances to wear our favourite purchases and embrace fashion outside of loungewear. For autumn and winter we see 90’s continue to be the main influence. We’re not talking full Spice Girls and Backstreet Boys, but certainly a nod to them. Alongside the 90’s,
outdoor adventure brands are set to take centre stage,layers to ensure we can continue to enjoy the outside whatever the weather. Whilst we embrace the 90’s, surf fashion has given a nod to it’s heritage with a retro revival. We’re talking print tees, Hawaiian influences and classic tones. Our final trend needs little introduction as it has continued to dominate, Street skate wear, is not just a trend it’s a lifestyle.
Adventure Wear

With brands like Columbia and Picture, embracing winter has never been more stylish. Throw on your Timberlands, wrap up warm and explore Cornwall.

90’s
The 90’s trend continues, instead of the skinny jeans of yesteryears we instead embrace straight leg and flared. Trainers continue to be the ultimate accessory, with Old Skool Vans and Nike SB topping the charts. When it comes to tops, the lockdown tie-dye makes a revival, because who didn’t try their hand at making their own, right?
Paired with bright neon’s and geometric prints, autumn isn’t looking dull. Completed with white Dr Martens and bucket hats and we might as well be back in the 90’s.
