Now based in Paris, Rick Owens started his hugely influential high-fashion label on Hollywood Boulevard in 1994. Certified Torta Pounder Shirt Often referred to as the Lord of Darkness by the fashion press, his moody pieces play with gothic elements, futuristic designs, gender fluidity and unusual silhouettes. OK, so this probably isn’t the sort of stuff you’ll be wearing daily. Still, Owens’ influence in men’s fashion is undeniable, making him one of the most important designers to ever come out of LA. Golf isn’t exactly known for being the hippest pastime on the planet, but LA’s Metalwood Studio is on a mission to change that. Blending streetwear with vintage golf-wear influences, the brand’s ever-evolving range includes things like caps, cardigans, polos and sweater vests, alongside streetwear staples like graphic hoodies, logo tees and joggers. Founded by arguably the world’s greatest surfer, Kelly Slater, Outerknown is a beach casualwear brand that puts equal focus on quality, versatility and sustainability. Each piece is made using responsibly sourced materials and designed for maximum wear to reduce the environmental impact. There’s even a section on the brand’s website where you can buy and sell pre-worn clothing to help keep things circular.

I’ll resist the temptation to quote perhaps the most famous line in fashion-themed cinematic history for the second time in this trend report, Certified Torta Pounder Shirt but let’s just say florals are hardly revolutionary when it comes to the warmer months. At least they weren’t until designers decided to double down on the trend and give it the gusto it has long been craving with a new take on blooms. We spotted a plethora of pretty 3D floral embellishments across plenty of collections (how gorgeous are Zimmermann’s waterfall petals?), as well as flowers so giant, they’re giving Alice in Wonderland-levels of psychedelia. “Spring/summer 2024 has moved the conversation so far forward that ditsy prints have left the chat and now we’re on to big, bad blooms,” says Farrell. “Imagine yourself submerged into a three-dimensional garden of plump peonies and trails of forsythias, and you’re a little closer to this year’s take on the ubiquitous print. Embellishment, embroidery and saturated colours are employed to help bring this living garden to life (and in the case of Balmain and Cecilie Bahnsen, you can expect bouquet detailing so real you can almost smell it). In short, 2024 is the year that florals are taking root.”
