As the cosiness of winter transitions into the invigorating energy of summer, spring makes its way into hearts, homes and wardrobes everywhere. Comfortable woollens and plush sweaters are put away, as the vivid brilliance of the new season is welcomed with open arms. What truly signifies the essence of spring? Sometimes, it’s as simple as a beautiful floral pattern, a wave of primary colours, or a soothing pastel shade to embody a sweet subtleness. Other times, it’s bold strokes, classic designs with edgy twists, or a stark contrast of hues that bring out the high-spirited energy of the summer sun. Our five premium properties—DLF Mall of India, DLF City Centre Chandigarh, DLF Promenade, DLF CyberHub and DLF Place Saket—pride themselves in capturing this dynamic ethos of every season, ultimately bringing the most cohesive experiences to you, our patron.

MENSWEAR For Spring/Summer 2018, menswear has gone back a few decades. It is currently embracing pastels, vertical stripes, light-wash denim and boxy suit jackets. Inspiration stems from the ’90s for print and colour direction, and the ’80s for tailoring and silhouettes.

With an unending list of soirées, brunches, beach parties and concerts lined up for the new season, finding an appropriate outfit always feels like a Herculean task. And just in case you have missed fashion week, we’re here to help. Stay a step ahead by incorporating these fun trends into your wardrobe.

this trend done right can make for a chic and bold ensemble. Sheer kimono tops paired with peek-a-boo statement bralets: Hunkemöller (available at DLF Mall of India and DLF Promenade) tucked into a perfectly pleated skirt is how I enjoy wearing mine. It doesn’t necessarily always have to be bold; keep it minimal or feminine, with shoes and accessories to fit.

At Massimo Dutti (available at DLF Mall of India), dreamy shades of mustard, coral and muted blue have already made it to my list of favourites. Usually, I enjoy colourblocking with hues from the same family. Instead of drowning my intention in the brightest colours from head to toe, I prefer highlighting a particular tone, and building my outfit LET’S START WITH THE BASICS around it. For a fun brunch, for instance, Ladies, pastels are making a comeback. Heavy denim is an absolute no, especially I’d wear the Massimo Dutti wide-legged you know what to do.

• •

Go vertical with stripes for a taller and slimmer look. Denim-inspired casual jackets will never go out of style. Dig out your old ones or check out Levi’s (available at DLF Mall of India, DLF Place Saket and DLF Promenade) for their selection of smart casual denim jackets.

•

Choose the right length of shorts. A perfect pair ends one or two inches above the knee.

•

Dare to wear the short suit. It brings with it a different level of chic. Pro tip: do not match the colour of your suit and your shorts. Mixing things up can give the look a whole other personality.

With a plethora of trends changing every season, it’s obviously not possible to embrace each and every one. I often find myself recycling my purchases from last summer and mixing them with newly coveted ones. Give it a try.
