She jetted from New York to Paris, following the runways [1] and tracking the trends on the street [2], so when it comes to what's big for 2019, Shopbop's Fashion Director Caroline Maguire knows what's up. She's the woman behind the cool, curated lineup of designers and brands that line the virtual shelves of our favourite online boutique [3]. From the up-and-comers to classic labels we love, Caroline is something of a style sleuth, unearthing the next big things in fashion. So when we caught up after Fashion Week Month, we wanted to know: what looks will be big this year?

Inside, she breaks it all down, from how to wear it to the pieces to buy right now.

Trend: Tropical Prints

"Hawaiian prints and surfer-inspired two-pieces are the perfect way to put your closet on island time. Don't limit it to just your clothing — try footwear and swim, too!"

Trend: Tie-Dye and Neons

"Go bold or go home! This season is all about ultrabright tie-dye and neon trends. With such loud prints and colours, I like to keep the rest of my outfit understated with easy denim."

Trend: Lady Bags

"Structured, handheld bags bring an element of luxury to a look, and I love that you can wear them with any outfits regardless of occasion or clothing trend."

Trend: Utilitarian Dressing

"Minimalist, utilitarian pieces are a breath of fresh air this season. Try trousers (or shorts!) with a button-down for a perfectly pulled-together look."

Trend: Cognacs/Neutral Hues

"It is all about juxtaposition with neon brights and neutrals. I love the unique colour combo of ultraviolet paired with a cognac or camel."

Trend: Animal Prints

"This season, we're seeing a continuation of the animal-print trend with a huge focus on ZEBRA! I am loving the bold look of this — especially when paired with bright neon colourways."

Trend: Shell Jewellery

"We love our puka shells and are seeing the trend continue this year. Look to coloured shells as the newest update, layered with various lengths and bold colours."

Trend: Hair Accessories

"We're seeing lots of hair accessories from acrylic, chunky pieces to diamante barrettes."
