Marc Jacobs

We've seen the skinny silk scarf (last season's hero accessory), and now we have the silk scarf-tie hybrid. Simply take a large silk scarf tie and tie as you would a regular tie, knotting at the neck of a collared shirt.

Proenza Schouler

Think of this as a new take on the wrap-around skit. We're calling it the wrap-and-fold and involves folding your leather skirt over and around your middle and cinching with a skinny belt.

Victoria Beckham

Never mind matching your shoes to your bag, this is about matching your bag to your whole outfit. Choose one colour and go head-to-toe tonal.

Alexander Wang

Yes the midriff is still a focus for SS17 (get those stomach crunches in now) but next summer we'll be taking our cue from Mr Wang and adorning our with a sporty crisscross of satin ribbon. You could try over a white t-shirt too.

Here's a new idea for customising your denim: slice the sleeves of your jacket from the cuffs –which should stay buttoned – right up to just under the armpit.

Coach

Take 3 layers: start with a pair of oversized, boyish pants (or cycling shorts for the less sartorially brave) and then layer two sheer skirts, of different lengths, over the top of each other.

J. Crew

Dress down a formal evening skirt with a grungy skater tee. Keep the whole look tonal – accessories included – to give this popular styling hack a new-season spin.

DKNY

Is it a bumbag? Is it a belt? It's both! Try using a sporty bumbag to define the waist of a loose-fitting dress or oversized jacket.

Altuzarra

It looks like this 90's reference will be sticking around for SS17. Take this summer's off-the-shoulder top (of which we've invested heavily in) and wear with your fanciest bra or bikini top. The more frills and lace the better.
