The Trend: Geometric prints

Prada’s head-to-toe geometric prints were all the buzz at the fall/ winter 2012 runway shows. With vibrant colours, sharp shapes and bold suiting, the brand took us on a kaleidoscope ride and had everyone under their graphic spell.

Scoop this sweet style directly off the runway or steal the look for less:

Clockwise:
Blouse, $70, H&M
Roslyn Zip Continental Wallet, $195, Tory Burch
Print Pleat Skirt, $24, Joe Fresh
Tessuto Jacquard Handbag, $1650, Prada
Graphic Tank, $29, Joe Fresh
