You choose a swimsuit on support, cut and a measured size, not on your dress size. Tops, bottoms, one-pieces, body shapes, online sizing and returns: the guide to read before summer.
You choose a trench by the shoulders, then the length, then the fabric. Cotton gabardine, wool or polyester, the right length for your height, the quality details to check and six ways to wear it.
The September 2024 shows are hitting the shops: boho dresses, bloomers, anoraks over party dresses, supersized suits, butter yellow… Ten runway pieces traced back to their shows, with the wearable version.
Trends move fast — too fast, sometimes. Spring-summer, autumn-winter, pre-collections, instant collabs: the fashion calendar never stops, and it can feel overwhelming. At Mademoiselle Bulle, Kristina cuts through the noise to tell you what's genuinely worth paying attention to — and what's destined for the charity shop by March.
The influence is real: according to WGSN and Lyst data, social-media-driven micro-trends now have an average lifespan of just 3 to 6 months, compared to 2-3 years for traditional fashion cycles. That means buying into every trend is a losing game. Our articles help you spot what has staying power, what suits your style, and what to skip entirely.
Colour of the season, key pieces to invest in, high-street versus high-end comparisons — this is your cheat sheet for dressing well without chasing every hashtag.
