In the hood

While it may be giving Kylie Minogue circa 2001, the hooded dress is indeed making a comeback in this year's wholesale fashion trends. Spotted on Bella Hadid at the Versace runway, this bold style has cropped up among the likes of Alberta Ferretti, Saint Laurent, and more.

Statement florals

Florals, for spring? Groundbreaking. No, but seriously, silence your inner Miranda Priestly for just a moment to hear us out on this new trend. Alongside the floaty florals sported by the likes of Karlie Kloss on the Carolina Herrera runway, there were some notable standouts — literally — among Loewe and Roksanda this year, with 3D floral designs dominating in a range of punchy colours.

We've compiled some of our fave floral pieces and accessories from CREOATE to help you stock the look. US-based clothing brand Fabulous Icon offers a range of statement floral detail bodycon dresses and tops in a variety of eye-catching colours. Meanwhile, Spanish fashion wholesaler Q2 serves up classic floral designs for a floaty, more boho vibe. For elegant accessories, Mustard Monday sells adorable detachable collars, headbands, and more to add a bit of whimsy to any look.

Denim blues

Denim looks featured in over 50% of this season's looks, an increase of over 60% from the SS22 collections. So, needless to say, denim is here to stay. The Hadid sisters turned in a couple of interesting denim looks for Givenchy. Both baggy and figure-hugging, there's variety here when it comes to styling, with Burberry showcasing some interesting layered one-piece looks, and noughties throwback vibes from Chloé with lace-up and stud detailing.

There's no shortage of stylish denim looks on CREOATE, and we've pulled together just a few. Splurg'd Studio stocks a range of canvas and denim shoulder bags, backpacks, and more — all ideal accessories for denim lovers. Kands London delivers on the denim dress front, while RED OX FASHION LIMITED is all about denim jumpsuits, playsuits, and one pieces. As ever, Q2 comes through with uniquely styled takes on yet another of this season's wholesale fashion trends.

Dress it down

Whether it's sheer fabric and transparent detailing, or the influence of women's nightwear, vintage silk and lace slips, along with the 'coquette aesthetic' that's gained popularity among Gen Z — dressed-down couture has been prominent across the board this season. Hyper-feminine and understated youthful elegance is in, and what we're seeing is a strong veer towards dainty, soft, flirtatious looks from brands such as Burberry, Nensi Dojaka, and more.

Want to capitalise on this coquettish craze? Angie's Showroom sells a range of stunning lingerie and nightwear that's perfect for sleeping in, or layering as part of an effortless dressed-down look. Bag some of Boody's high-quality basics made from organic bamboo for soft, comfortable underwear and loungewear for men, women and children.
