Topshop Autumn Winter Trends 2012.
 Rock-oco.

This is the going out trend for the season. All going out items should be played up with fur, lace and embellishment is key. Laser-cut leathers, structured bodycons and gilded skinnies pave the way for a modern approach, while fresco-inspired prints, vampish lace and delicate pearl and bead-embellishment add that requisite touch of Italian impact.

KEY PIECES:

- Embellishment over print.
- Skinnies/Flares.
- Encrusted Biker.
- Bralet Co-ords.
- Baroque lace blouses.
- Embroidered pencil skirts.
- Laser cut leather.
- Heavy jewelled collars.
- Encrusted ankle boots.
- Photographic Prints.
- Tapestry prints.

Rave New World

This is our casual trend with strong 90’s grunge influences. Military jackets can be seen with bright oversized knits, bleached denim and graffiti prints. We're clashing everything this season; neon florals, acid knitwear, checks on checks on checks. Slogan Tee’s are key, casual boots and bags complete the look.

KEY PIECES:

- Camo/Army print.
- Graffiti.
- Neon.
- Aztec joggers.
- Bleached Denim.
- Casual Denim, Dungarees.
- Oversized colourful knitwear.
- Dip Dye.
- Tie Dye.
Psychedelic Dandy.

This is our smarter trend this season. Lurex jacquard, paisley print and textured velvet take over a slim fitted silhouette for a striking bohemian meets electro trend. Featuring waist-hugging jackets, pussy-bow blouses, cigarette trousers and a token cravat - this is a luxe modern twist on retro. This trend is all about texture, print and colour.

KEY PIECES:

- Jacquard Tunics.
- Head to toe prints.
- Geo prints.
- Opulant paisleys.
- Pussy bows.
- Woven roll necks.
- Pea coats.
- Velvet dressing.
- Cigarette pants.
- Skinny flares.
- Dandy boots.
- Texture.
