Autumn/Winter 2013 fashion trend: Military army style

14:56:00

Army-inspired styles are a winning strategy. Inspired by hussars, Russian tsars and Mounties, the catwalk had a strong military presence. Personally, I am a big fan of this current re-occurring fad.

This 2013 trend is one of the easiest trends to incorporate into your wardrobe. Think gold and brass-buttons, epaulettes to insignias, heavy boots, military overalls and cargo pants, caps, cropped jackets or full-length, double-breasted coats. Fitted jackets, emphasized shoulders, bodices and neat, stand-up collars give a romantic feel to the trend.

Autumn's earthy palette lends itself well to the smart military trend or opt for military shades in; army green, black, grey, navy and mustard making up the perfect military colour palette.
