Spring 2018 Runway Trends
-
Asymmetry
Spring 2018 had lots of asymmetry, from handkerchief hems to off-kilter tops to that coat-slung-over-one-shoulder Céline trick. And then there were those (Calvin Klein, Alexander Wang, Dries Van Noten, etc.) who literally bisected their designs. Being two-faced is now a good thing.

Sheer Overlays
“A lack of transparency results in distrust and a deep sense of insecurity." So says the Dalai Lama and the Spring 2018 runways. Whether transparency equates to near-nudity depends on you, and what you layer under your sheer dresses, suits, trenches, etc.

Head-To-Toe Denim
An early-aughts Britney and Justin would be pleased to note that Canadian tuxedos are now the height of fashion (and have been for many seasons). Per the Spring 2018 runways, all-over denim looks are going nowhere. Dark, tailored takes are particularly de rigeur. (Don't listen to Stella McCartney — avoid neon acid wash at all costs.)

Drawstring Details
Welcome to the age of glamleisure. Rather than dressing like you're straight-up going to the gym, opt for a high-low mix of dressy and sporty. Pair anoraks with ladylike skirts, bungee cord-accented pants with glittery camis...you get the idea.

Plastic
The weather is proving less and less predictable. It follows that the Raf Simons-pioneered chic rain gear trend is already picking up speed. Come spring, we'll be keeping dry in clear plastic coats, capes, skirts and trousers from Chanel, Toga, Balmain, Calvin Klein, Ellery and more.

Standout Stripes
An extension of the Resort 2018 trend, designers from New York to Paris filled their Spring 2018 lineups with bold (oftentimes vertical) bands in dynamic colors. Stripes elongate the leg, draw the eye upward and make for graphic, head-turning looks. What's not to love?

All Tied Up
While most designers — especially those based in New York — favored that 90s-referencing shirt-tied-around-the-waist look, Balenciaga's Demna Gvasalia took a preppier, more perverse approach.

Knee-Length Shorts
Oxymoronic long shorts — beloved by Gigi and Bella Hadid, best when dressed up by a pair of heels — are about to trend hard. (As are bike shorts, as are short suits.)

Fanny Packs
Kendall Jenner and the street style set are way ahead of the curve on this one. Sling yours over your shoulders for optimal cool-kid vibes; wear it with eveningwear if you want to (kind of, a little) stand apart from the crowd.

Logomania
As far as the Spring 2018 runways are concerned, wearing a pricey piece without the designer's name stamped across it is the sartorial equivalent of a tree falling in an uninhabited forest.
