Red is the statement colour for autumn/winter this year, and English and History of Art Senior Freshman Anna Svalbe utilises bold, brash impact with a vintage wool coat. The pairing of red and pink this season forces us to deconstruct once-untouchable binaries of acceptable colour co-ordination. Wearing ‘60s blue denim jeans between colour blocking softens this approach to an intense use of colour, embracing the more natural looks seen on the runways this year, and rolling them up to showcase quirky or colourful socks is a trend quickly entering the domain of high street fashion. Slowly moving away from gaudy attempts to scream your point of view through your clothing under notable influences from celebrities like Lady Gaga, we are instead entering a more sophisticated stage of fashion, which can be seen in Anna’s outfit. Anna simply describes her style as “Minimalist and comfortable, with few accessories and as many vintage items as possible.”
