Designer vs. Highstreet

Seen on the feet of models catwalking for designer Mario Scwab's Spring 2010 ready to wear collection, cut out heels with a tie up lace were seen as the ideal footwear.

However, instead of being your credit card's worst enemy, get yourself to Topshop now to buy these fool-proof copies and be smugly prepared for next spring!

Luella SS10

Loving the heart cut out cocktail dress!

And the cute, careless tie ups with the hair, secured with a cute kitsch bow just means we can spend an extra hour on our make-up, creating them bejewelled eyes, just like Luella!

Matthew Williamson SS10

Embellishments, brights and metallics are all thrown in together to create this stunning upcoming collection from Matthew Williamson.

Paper-bag waisted shorts appeared in pastel, metallic shades, teamed effortlessly with a chiffon top.

Pattern is also proving to be a popular trend for SS10, as we can see from Williamson's deisgns here. Perfect for women wishing to embrace in this new trend but are more body conscious than these runway models. Aim for larger, vertical patterns to create a slimming effect, and lighter shades in your slimmest areas to create emphasis to that area.

Julian Macdonald SS10

Peep toe ankle boots in grey, nude and cream strutted their way down this catwalk collection by Julian Macdonald.

Again, shoulders played a main priority, with shoulder pads and oversized off the shoulder sleeves balanced out what we can witness as the comeback of the mini-dress for SS10!

The style of these dresses was to embrace every curve a women owns and really bring that long lost, sex appeal. 'Controlled and tight' is how Macdonald was continually describing his collection backstage.

Anotonio Berardi SS10

Nude, boned and embellishment.

These are the basics to what Anotonio Berardi sent down the runway for his SS10 collection.

After this, we can see pops of bright royal colours, particularly electric blue and vampire red, added in with neutral tones to really make them pop and stand out.

The structure of shoulders is still staying a main priority with his summer collection, whether it be a sweetheart, boned corset, leaving bare shoulders seductivly naked. Or structured shoulder pads added into tailored summer blazers.

The 1920's women takes on a whole new look in SS10.
