The key trends for Isabella Oliver 365 Spring Summer 2009 are….
Effortless Classics
Trends come and go, however it is the iconic pieces that remain style staples. Isabella Oliver 365 celebrates the resurgence of tailoring and relaxed elegance with soft-shouldered jackets, cropped trousers and slouchy shorts. Playing on its day to evening philosophy, the selection of modern wardrobe basics includes The Mac, chic variations on the classic LBD, and luxuriously tailored separates that are ideal for day and evening.
The Mac
Dramatic Draping
Draping perfectly encapsulates the 365 ethos and adds subtle on-trend style to any summer ensemble. Effortlessly flattering, it complements a woman’s femininity whilst combining Grecian flare with AM to PM glamour. Dresses take on the trend with dramatic draped accents, soft fluid fabrics, and a goddess feel that epitomises care-free summer dressing.

Stand Out Stripes
Stand out from the crowd with statement striped dresses and chic St Tropez-inspired separates. The classic white and navy stripe has been given a modern, bold twist with pieces that exude breezy summer style. Work your curves in the Striped Multiway Dress that offers versatile ease for the warmer months, or try the Striped Scoop Top for a Euro-chic essential.

Sheer Femininity
A theme that combines timeless delicacy with satin sheen; Sheer Femininity is a key look within the 365 collection. Soft silhouettes gently float over curves with contemporary shapes in Tan and dark Navy – the new Black. Ideal for after six cocktails or dressed down for daytime, Sheer Femininity keeps things sophisticatedly simple.
Asymmetrical Elegance
This season shoulders are ‘in’, and a touch of bronzer is the perfect accompaniment to the one-sided trend. A detail that effortlessly livens up your favourite evening dress; an asymmetric accent is a must-have for spring summer 2009 and is effortlessly encapsulated in the 365 collection. Keep accessories minimal, and let the Toga Dress do the talking.
