From strawberries and cream to ‘sushi-face’: this week’s fashion trends

Strawberries and cream at Ralph’s Bar.

Going up

Gucci socks

Gucci socks with high-street shoes
A ground-level revolution in high-low dressing is happening.

Sponge as accessory
The new trend among male dolphins is to pick up a piece of sea sponge and wear it as a hat, apparently. Get those guys to Pitti Uomo.

Strawberries and cream
Best eaten as a sundae at Ralph Lauren’s Ralph’s Bar, where Wimbledon will be screened. Posher than a sports bar.

Cacti
The logical next step in this decade’s piña colada aesthetic: one part flamingo, one part Céline-ad succulent greenery. Accessorise your SS17 Hugo cactus-flower shirt with a matching margarita glass.

Zara sun hat
Slap on a hat.

Zara sunhat + St Tropez self-tan Express Face Sheet Mask
£19.99 for the hat, £15 for two sheet masks: cheaper than Botox.

Accidental Wes Anderson
From Sketch in London to a hotel in Cape Town, the locations on this Reddit thread are as uncanny as scenes in an Anderson film.

Going down

Sushi
According to Julianne Moore, can cause “sushi face”, or puffiness, when eaten too much.

DIY Ikea chic
From charming to cringeworthy. Frakta off.

Transparent panels on leggings
When they go baggy.

Fade-to-grey jeans
Embrace your rosé-drinking summer persona with a pair of off-white jeans. The Log, in white, by Acne Studios Bla Konst; and Rizzo, in milk, by Donna Ida.

Armpit tattoos
Making us wince just thinking about it.

Holly Golightly
Your new eyemask icon is the girl in the Balenciaga campaign. Now at Colette in Paris.
