Sizzling summer temperatures have finally reached Vancouver, and this season’s styles are the only things hot enough to match this heat wave.
VCC fashion insider Sarah Murray, program coordinator for VCC’s fashion arts program, has seen summer’s trends firsthand on both the catwalk and the sidewalk, and recommends these as the five must-have items for summer:
- Crop tops
- Florals
- Full-circle skirts
- Cutoffs
- Luxe sweatshirts
Fortunately, you don’t have to break the bank to acquire these trends. Murray has a few tips for fashionistas looking to get their hands on these styles for less:
A master of these flowy, bohemian looks is VCC alum and superstar swimwear designer Anna Kosturova. Her crocheted dresses and bikinis have graced the cover of Sports Illustrated, the pages of major fashion magazines and are donned by many a fashionable celeb.
