The Main Trends In Accessories From The Spring/Summer 2023 Runway Shows
Discover the runway highlights that are sure to dominate street style this spring.
Accessories are always a good idea. And even more so when it comes to on-trend accessories that we know will complement your outfit when it comes to dressing up. On the spring 2023 runways there was an exuberance and an embrace of a new kind of maximalism, both in the materials and approach and in the act of accessorizing. Beyond their practical needs, designers have embraced the idea of bags and shoes becoming a vehicle for adding an extra layer of texture, decorative detailing and extravagance. At Louis Vuitton, Nicolas Ghesquière blew up the brand’s classic coin purse and turned it into an oversized handbag and clutch while at Tom Ford extravagant chunky jewelry that came in XL-disco inspired bracelets and earrings, dominated the runway.
