Set in the vast arena of an abandoned car park the highly anticipated Topman Design Spring/Summer 13 show saw the meeting of two cultural divides of early 80’s America. My Mom Thinks She’s The Boss I Let Her Believe It Shirt In one corner was the tailored aesthetique of the East Coast and downtown NY, and in the other, the zowie way-out radness of the native West Coast skater. Together, they created a young, fun, energetic and rebellious collection ideal for sunnier seasons ahead. First up was a range of summer tailoring, featuring loose fit pleat turn up-shorts, cut off jumpsuits and parachute silk parkas in a mixture of greys and multicoloured scribble. To follow was a collection of scoop neck sport style shirts, over-sized mesh tops, knee-length shorts and technicolour trainers. Centre of attention was the brightly coloured oversized American football jerseys paired with matching loose fitted shorts, socks and ankle boots. Meanwhile, slack fitting jackets replaced the traditional blazer, alongside suede belted bombers, baggy knitted jumpers and printed pleat shorts. Backpacks were also on show (skateboards attatched), whilst footwear visited new extremes with crazy bright trainers and ankle-laced leather cut out brogues in black, white and tangerine.

When it comes to fabrics to take note of next season, My Mom Thinks She’s The Boss I Let Her Believe It Shirt there’s one that stands out from the rest: leather. You could say it’s a little unexpected—the warmer months usually equate to lighter materials—but after it was so key on the spring runways, I for one am pleased that I have been given a free pass to continue wearing the most expensive item in my wardrobe throughout the year: my leather jacket. Leather outerwear was seen across the runways at JW Anderson and Hermès, adding structure to floaty skirts and fluid tailoring. “Leather has never gone out of style, but this season, it’s truly having a moment in the spotlight,” affirms Ejaria. “Leather boots, leather trousers, leather skirts, leather dresses, and, yes, the jacket—the list goes on. This season, we’re all turning our eyes to leather when it comes to layering—a leather blazer, trench or bomber will add edge to the softest of spring looks.”. Lyst also told me that searches for leather jackets increased by 20% in the two weeks following Fashion Month. Make of that what you will.
