Get ready for blast-off because this Autumn, things have gone seriously Space-Age. It all started with Chanel’s intergalactic adventure themed show back in March.

Since then – the fashion world has gone to infinity and beyond (sorry – these puns are too much fun) when it comes to all things out of this world. So look to the future and way up into the stars for your A/W style guide. Read more

If you’ve been keeping up, you’ll already know that the flatform silhouette is a huge deal this season with the style forecast set for the rest of 2017 as well. It’s time to lift your look and replace those go-to flats with a little added fashion sass from the 70’s. We’ve already discussed Vans getting on-board with the trend when they introduced their Old Skool Platform, and given you a low-down of the elevated street-wear staples you need now from big brands like Superga, adidas and PUMA. However, Converse are now in our spotlight as the latest brand to rise into this must-have trend with some edgy flatform trainers.

The upgrade has now been kicking around for almost 2 years now, and what was possibly the biggest sneaker news of 2015, has now become a fan favourite among those who want to marry up the look and feel of a Chuck Taylor with the comfort of a Nike. So with that in mind, the brand has drafted in two brand ambassadors at the top of their chosen professions – match made in heaven.
