We’re seeing lace and frays on the Resort 2018 runways.
Resort collections, aka Cruise collections, are arguably the most diverse of all the seasons, considering that they’re made for the holiday period. As such, it’s not uncommon to see swimsuits and trenchcoats on the same designer runway, as demonstrated by Chanel and Hermès.
After all, some of us may be cruising around Europe in the winter, while others may prefer to travel around Asia Pacific to escape the cold; so it’s best to stock up your closet for both occasions right?
Regardless of what you’re planning for the holidays this year, here are some trends spotted from the Cruise/Resort 2018 collections to keep an eye out for so you can travel in style.
