Pastels: (candy/ice-cream colours): This season’s satin gave pastels a fresh feel and the amazing thing about the pastel trend is that you can pick your most flattering colour and wear it with whatever silhouette that suits you.

Metallics: Glamorous gold and soft tones of silver add a touch of luxe to an outfit. The key to wearing metallic is to keep the accessories and hair simple and let the dress speak volumes.

Vibrant Jewel Tones: Canary yellow, Emerald green, Ruby red, Sapphire blue; these striking colours ooze sophistication. Wear one colour from head-to-toe for that extra ‘wow’ factor.

Monochrome: When it comes to cutting edge trends this season, monochrome is proving its staying power and you can never go wrong with it.

On the AMVCA red carpet I would also love to see defined waistlines, cut-outs, full skirts, form-fitting pieces, and halter, of-the-shoulder & deep V necklines.

However you choose to incorporate these trends into your red carpets looks for the AMVCA’s, be sure to pick what flatters your body type, skin tone and most importantly, what you are comfortable in.

As the saying goes…“when in doubt, wear BLACK” because it never goes out of style. And don’t forget that scoring points on the red carpet = Hiring a ‘GLAM SQUAD’ (Stylist, Hair & Make-up professional).
