Sparkle This Christmas with The Meadows

The party season has arrived and The Meadows Shopping Centre in Chelmsford is the perfect place to start your quest for the ultimate festive outfit…

The catwalks have spoken and the 80’s isn’t over yet…again. We saw the big shoulders revival hit our high streets throughout autumn, but it seems that there’s still a glimmer of shoulder pads and cropped jackets resounding in the key Christmas trends.

Top designers are flirting with ruching, goffering, ruffs and frills, teamed with big shoulders and a dash of leg. Marc Jacobs' collection for Louis Vuitton exudes stylish P.A.R.T.Y. spirit with pouf skirts, beribboned cuissardes and gobstopper pearls with Antonio Berardi, Versace and Gucci continuing to put sass and glamour into the continued eighties trend.

As we know; where the catwalk walks the high street follows and to get your Christmas wardrobe on trend just think luxurious fabrics that sparkle with sequins and shimmer with metallic detail. Team with some killer platform heels and boyfriend jacket and you’re ready to party, party, party…
