UK Fashion Trends 2013 (Jesika cutt)

While the rest of the world is revving up the color for summer, it looks like some London-based fashion designers are keeping things toned down. Reflecting what some would call the "gloom" of London's constant overcast skies, colors that would be traditionally slated for winter--blues, greys, blacks, browns--are happily finding their ways into spring and summer. UK's fashion this year is all about sleek lines and muted colors.

Alright, not all about sleek lines and muted colors. But in contrast with last year's neon's, this year is definitely more toned down. Designers are focusing on geometric prints and splashes of color, instead of an overwhelming clash of prints and colors and styles. A return to sophistication, with a twist of originality, some might call it.

On Zyno fashion jewellery website, for example, we can see a sleek, crescent-shaped bib necklace. While the base color is gold, it features a geometric design, highlighted with a few bright colors. Classy, with just a hint of something special and different. You can wear a necklace like this with a classic white and black dress and a pair of glossy Zyno sunglasses, and it will provide visual interest; that pop of color that can draw the eye. The fashion world is seeing blacks, whites, greys, browns, and navies, layered with one hyper-interesting piece. And that interest doesn't just have to come from color. It can be a vintage cameo ring if you want something vintage or a sharply-shaped necklace if you want something a little punk rock. You can spice up or add to a monochromatic outfit with just a few small pieces of jewellery.

That's not to say that every designer is playing it subtle this year. We're seeing bright red evening gowns, metallic pants, and flowy, elfin frocks. Metallics and pastels are seen all over the runways and in the most fashionable shops. The loudest of prints meeting the skinniest of jeans. Those same subtle trends are being taken to extremes in order to push the boundaries of fashion on the UK streets.

One of the most common and well-known UK trend is plaid, which is back this year in a big way. Literally, a big way. Big plaid checks on big plaid jackets. This kind of oversized, colorful print is for the bolder dresser, the one who's not afraid to be picked out of a crowd.

As for silhouettes, almost anything goes. Picks something that works best for you. While a large part of fashion is staying on top of what's stylish right now, there is also something to be said for the woman who knows what looks best on her unique body and for her personality. This season really caters towards that. There appears to be something for everyone. If you are looking to accessorize, consider Zyno's designer jewellery website, stocked with on-trend costume jewellery, watches, and sunglasses. You will surely find something to complement your interpretation of this season's best UK fashion trends.
