French Connection launches Spring Summer collection and it brings a fresh injection of style into your wardrobe.

Breathable natural linens, lightweight cottons and fine knit sweats make up a summer wardrobe, which is finished with an unruly edge.

Laundered styles and layering is key, showcased in a colour palette of pale greys, muted green, white and lemon yellows, which reflects the freshness of spring.

Longer length shirts are mixed with dip dye tees and worn under citrus stripe, while oversize cardigans sit along-side loose fit trousers. Knitwear adds a powerful citrus injection seen in block colours and tonal stripe v-necks.

Formal elements are added to this look in a carefree un-conditional manner. Gone are traditional linings and tailored methods, blazer jackets are loosened-up for a fresh wearable style, which sits neatly with drawstring cargo pants and light wash roll-up jeans.

Technical sportswear adds an intricate offering into the mix. Graphic print t-shirts take inspiration from electron circuits with a hint of military details.

Conceptual elements also prevail with cleverly placed pockets and exaggerated proportions. Mix with white skinny leg jeans or turn up trousers hem for a slightly old school 1950s rock look.

Accessories take inspiration from the main clothing range. Bright nylon sports bags feature racing stripes and detachable shoulder straps while satchel bags come with internal laptop compartments.

Scarves are relaxed in open weave patterns and sit with fun graphic prints belts and a smarter offering of classic leather styles.
