“The House of Fraser SS17 collection embraces everything that is visual with it’s offering of loud prints such as paisleys, tropical and geometric shapes. Another key trend that can be seen throughout the collection is the focus on active wear, inspired by 90’s sportswear, which has been blended with everyday clothing to created the look of ‘sports luxe’.”
