Going up

Skiing Suddenly really fashionable thanks to 1980s-inspired skiwear at Topshop SNO and O’Neill. Your inspo is the royal family on the slopes around 1987.

Full stops Back in the game, judging by Rihanna’s Insta-captions.

The new Lacoste logo Reworked by design duo M/M. Like a Lego version of the crocodile. Into it.

Emerald As seen on Beyoncé, as both the shade of her dress and the stone in her jewellery. Alpha colour monotoning is now a thing.

Going down

Smartwatches That buzz of satisfaction from paying for your dinner on your watch has been outdone. We now want earrings that alert us to a new message, à la replicants in Blade Runner 2049.

“Cool” Over, according to Virgil Abloh. Instead, replace this with “influencer gulf stream”: that thing when something gets the nod from the internet’s people that matter.

Paris Hilton’s five phones We love a multiple, but Paris has been outdone by Blake Lively’s ability to wear seven outfits in one day.

Frayed hems on jeans Just everywhere. Revert to a clean hem.
