Trend alert: Soft grunge

Trend alert: Soft grunge

Soft, sultry tones mixed with typically punk rock pieces is one of this season’s most daring combinations. Thanks to big names such as Christopher Kane and Marc Jacobs, the fashion world has been inspired and has reinvented nineties fashion, giving it a softer, prettier feel.

Topshop’s bleach denim dungarees are an example of tomboy fashion at its best; teamed with a pastel or white t-shirt, this outfit is a modern take on a classic nineties look. These dungarees are a must have investment for summer wardrobes.
