Bershka AW19 Collection keep the 90s vibe alive
New season. New moods. Bershka presents its AW19 look book and it’s all about bringing the attitude. For women, grunge, goth and fierce femininity are all having a moment. Grunge styles keep the 90s vibe alive with baggy jeans, bombers and chunky boots playing off against ditzy floral prints. And there’s good news for closet goths, with modern mashups allowing you to get up on the cult trend, which is split into two camps: black and white with workwear influences, aka pockets aplenty, and the colour pop camp, with clashing green and red, dragon prints and prairie blouses all dialling up the drama.
Parisian chic gets edgy – for girls with extra grrrr. We’re talking houndstooth checks and hot pink combos worn with ladylike accessories (pearly headband, anyone?) and stormthe-streets platform boots. And for modern heroines, we’ve riffed off the so-now western trend to create tough looks – think moody grey denim – with romantic styling such as cinched waists, voluminous sleeves and crystals across all accessories. Scandicool street style also features with sportswear classics like puffer jackets, joggers and statement knits redone in pastel colours and put together in an ultra-feminine way.
For guys, it’s shaping up to be a season like no other with exciting colour combos, clashing checks, maxed-out graphics and unbelievable outerwear. We’re giving it up for the great outdoors with performance-inspired outerwear mashed up with urban pieces, and natural tones contrasted with pop colours – oh, and check out the latest silhouettes of chunky trainers and trek sandals. We’re going XL on the 90s with hip-hop tees starring Snoop Dogg, a completely major boiler suit, and oversized plaid shirts styled with checked trousers and plenty of bling. If the noughties are more your thing, a new trend is channelling the original Matrix movies, with glitchy computerinspired graphics, worn-in and washedout fabrics and rubberised logos. And if you’re not up for going extra, casual looks feature natural tones, cozy layers and low-profile kicks, combined with unexpected pops of colour to keep the eyes on you.
