Q and Alex

Q: I’m a woman in my fifties and I’m trying to navigate the new styles. I’m hearing that white & black is going to be popular and that it’s appropriate for all ages. Is this true?

A: You can rarely go wrong when opposites attract. The black and white trend is in full force this season and it’s no surprise why. Not everyone can get behind the futuristic look of the graphic print and others have a hard time justifying the fluorescent trend that may not stick around. We’re taking note of the collection that Marc Jacobs brought to the runway which featured high-contrast black and white stripes as a key feature in the line up. Louis Vuitton and Jil Sander are also bringing this classic and easy to wear design to those who are looking for timeless investment pieces. Whether it’s featured through polka dots, florals or stripes, you’d be making the right choice by focusing on the always ageless reemergence of this top trend. Taking a trip to the Rideau Centre?
