Fall 19 Trend - 70s Patchwork

Say farewell to the 00s trend, because the 70s were the key decade of choice for Fall 19. It's not the first time that this decade has made an impact on the runway, it's signature Autumnal colour palette inevitably makes it a popular choice for Fall collections. Whilst there are many elements that attribute to this wider 70's trend, i'm focusing here on block patchwork. Sumptuous intarsia knits graced the runway, making for lust-worthy A/W wardrobe essentials. In New York, Eckhaus Latta showcased knit dresses and matching separates - the perfect statement pieces to nail this trend. I also adored the nod to the Bauhaus with the patterns. My favourite interpretation of this trend, was seen in London with the latest collection from Alexa Chung. Her take on the 70's was super wearable, with easy knits and matching scarves. If, however you are craving a stronger sense of the 70s then take note from Michael Kors. His collection was unashamedly 70s - with larger than life shearling scarfs and leather/suede patchwork. It was vintage inspired 70s at its best - and I for one loved it!
